Gloria Gaynor – Don't You Dare Call It Love (Original 1986 UK 12" Hi-NRG / Disco Maxi-Single)

Immerse yourself in the electrifying energy of mid-80s dancefloor history with this original 1986 UK first-pressing 12" vinyl single of Gloria Gaynor's striking club anthem, Don't You Dare Call It Love. Released on the collectible indie imprint Honeybee Records (Catalog Number: HONEY 112), and distributed through Pinnacle Records, this maxi-single showcases the legendary "Queen of Disco" pivoting effortlessly into a slick, uptempo Hi-NRG production style.

Produced by Steve Rowland and featuring exceptional, club-ready sequencing arranged by Richard Niles, the A-side highlights a powerful, bass-driven club mix with remix overdub production by Paul Lynton. The B-side delivers a stellar dancefloor interpretation of The Police's timeless classic, Every Breath You Take, masterfully remixed by Les 'Mix Doctor' Adams of Disco Mix Club fame. A phenomenal archive piece capturing the glitzy, high-BPM synth-pop crossover landscape of the late 1980s, making it a stellar addition for club DJs and dedicated soul, funk, or disco vinyl collectors.

• Media Grading: Very Good Plus (VG+) – The physical disc retains an exceptional glossy sheen and deep obsidian reflection. Visually brilliant, showing only a few microscopic cosmetic sleeve-removal wisps under direct grading light. Playback is remarkably clean, loud, and dynamic across both sides, punching through with crisp highs and an uninterrupted low-end club mix presentation.
• Sleeve Grading: Very Good (VG) – The outer picture jacket features a bold, high-contrast portrait of the artist and vibrant typography layout. Displays honest, age-appropriate storage shelf wear along the edges, with mild corner rubbing and soft creasing near the spine. The reverse side remains completely clean and fully legible with its unique album cross-promotional graphic intact.
• Inclusions: Housed in its original white paper protective inner lining sleeve.
