- I Am What I Am was the only studio album recorded by Shirley Bassey for the Towerbell Records label. Several other tracks were also recorded at this label and issued as singles only. The recording sessions took place at Olympic Studios, Barnes, London, in July and August 1984. Following the success of the previous album All by Myself, this album peaked at number 25 in the UK album chart and reached Gold status. This release was the first digitally recorded album made by Shirley Bassey and was issued on vinyl, cassette and CD. Consisting of mainly re-recordings from Shirley Bassey's back catalogue and two new songs, this album was recorded 'live' with The London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Carl Davies. The album also reunited Shirley Bassey with Norman Newell, who had served successfully as her producer throughout the 1960s. Towerbell Records is now defunct but this album has been re-issued on CD many times on various labels. Several of the vocal performances made for this recording were remixed for the 2007 album Get the Party Started. (en)
- I Am What I Am est le vingt sixième album studio de Shirley Bassey, sorti en 1984. Il est classé no 25 au UK Albums Chart et remporte un disque d'Or, le premier de la carrière de la chanteuse (hormis compilations), avec plus de 100 000 exemplaires vendus. L'album, enregistré avec l'Orchestre symphonique de Londres sous la direction de Carl Davis, ne contient que deux nouvelles chansons : la chanson-titre , extraite de la comédie musicale La Cage aux folles de Jerry Herman et Harvey Fierstein qui avait remporté six Tony Awards l'année précédente et était devenue un tube de Gloria Gaynor ; et , un hit de la même année de Julio Iglesias. Le reste de I Am What I Am contient des reprises d'anciens succès de Bassey. L'album, enregistré sur l'éphémère label britannique Towerbell Records (1980-1985), ne sort pas aux États-Unis. Aucun des deux singles (TOW60, avec As Long as He Needs Me en face B) et (TOW62, avec en face B) n'entre au hit-parade. I Am What I Am sort en 33 tours, cassette audio et disque compact, puis est réédité de nombreuses fois. (fr)
