Title: Gloria Gaynor – Never Can Say Goodbye
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1975, R&B, Disco, Newark, New Jersey
Matrix #: MGM SE 4982

Cultural Facts:
-
Studio Lore: Side one was arranged as a continuous DJ mix, helping define early disco’s seamless club format before it became standard.
-
Personal Struggle: Gaynor survived a 1978 stage fall that left her temporarily paralyzed; she relearned to walk and returned to recording.
-
Scene Ecology: Produced by Meco Monardo, the record came out of NYC’s club circuit, where DJs shaped song structure as much as labels did.
