Polydor To Re-Release Rachel Stevens’ ‘Funky Dory’

Polydor plan on re-releasing Rachel Stevens’ debut album ‘Funky Dory’ after poor sales, hoping her new single ‘Some Girls’, which isn’t on the album, will provide a boost. “Rachel’s been after a great song for months now and ‘Some Girls’ really was her last chance,” an industry source explained. “‘Funky Dory’ did really badly and the money invested in her by Polydor and 19 Recordings was nowhere near recouped. But the response to ‘Some Girls’ has been so good, that some genius has decided to put in on the old album with a new cover and re-release it.”
