Bad Girls is a classic Donna Summer album from 1978 featuring a slightly harder edge rock sound that gave the Queen of Disco many new fans.
The Donna Summer CD featured here is the early original Casablanca CD release from the mid 1980s that had the burst pattern with Casablanca logo silkscreened on the CD label and manufactured in West Germany. This also has a very clean uncompressed sound lacking from more recent reissues. As such, this is a very difficult edition/pressing of Bad Girls to find and will cost you some bucks when you do find it in the used CD bins.

I love that tune "Bad Girls"!
Now whenever I hear that tune, I think of that movie, "The Out of Towners" (1999) where John Cleese dances to Bad Girls in ladies clothing!
