First-ever release of the long-lost original full length versions of tracks from Sheena's 1985 hit collaboration with super producer Nile Rodgers. Remastered from the original master tapes and pressed on orange coloured vinyl with brand new artwork including full lyrics and rare photos. Features the previously unreleased uncut versions of singles 'Jimmy Mack' and 'Magic Of Love', original alternate 'Break Mix' of 'Do It For Love' and 7 minute+ take on the rock-funk workout 'Don't Turn Your Back'. As part of Cherry Red's on-going re-issue campaign of the star's EMI catalogue, this orange vinyl 'Uncut Nile Rodgers Sessions' edition of 1985's dance-R&B orientated 'Do You' features eight previously unreleased full-length versions of tracks from the hit album. 'Do You' finds Sheena Easton hooking up with Nile Rodgers at his imperial 1980s super-producer peak - following mega hit productions for the likes of David Bowie, Madonna and Duran Duran. Easton fully embraces her new upbeat, pop-funk direction on tracks like the Top 30 US dance hits 'Do It For Love' and classic Motown cover 'Jimmy Mack', as well as sensual groove ballads like 'Magic Of Love' and 'When The Lightning Strikes Again'.
