AllMusic[2]

I'm a Rainbow is the ninth studio album[a] recorded by American singer-songwriter Donna Summer. The album was recorded in 1981 and scheduled to be released on October 5 of that year[citation needed] but was shelved. It was not released until fifteen years later, on August 20, 1996 by Casablanca and Mercury Records. There was no promotion for the album. No singles or music videos were released. AllMusic gave the album a positive review, naming it her most personal record.[2]

In 2021, Summer's estate released a remixed version of the album, subtitled "Recovered & Recoloured". The new edition is reduced to fifteen tracks (featuring ten songs, some appearing in multiple edits), with each song remixed by contemporary producers and remixers.[3]
