Why This Record Matters
“Let's Dance” marked David Bowie's major 1983 collaboration with producer Nile Rodgers and became one of the defining commercial recordings of his 1980s catalog. This 12-inch single presents the 7:38 long version of “Let's Dance,” backed with the 5:09 version of “Cat People (Putting Out Fire).” The EMI America 7805 12-inch was a significant contemporary club release, with “Let's Dance” reaching No. 1 on Billboard's dance chart during 1983.
