On November 29 1986, Billboard’s dance music editor Brian Chin reported on the postponed Madonna remix project, You Can Dance.
While a release the following spring would also come to pass, the accuracy of details regarding the album’s content would suggest it was already in the can a year ahead of its eventual release.
An early preview would be granted for one of the remixes, albeit in live form, when Madonna’s Who’s That Girl World Tour performance of Into The Groove the following summer would borrow heavily from Shep Pettibone’s remix for You Can Dance.
I love the live version of Into the Groove! Madonna Forever in her brilliance!
This was such a great album. Back in 1988, I found a promo version marked “not for sale” that had shorter versions of the songs and they weren’t segued together. I have no idea what happened to that album, or any of my vinyl records for that matter. A few years ago my Mom found a 12″ of Angel/Into The Groove at a used book store and bought it for me.
