Template:Music ratings I Have a Right is Gloria Gaynor's seventh studio album, released in 1979. The track, "Let Me Know (I Have a Right)", was released as a single and reached No. 42 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1] The album has never been released on CD.
Reception
AllMusic called the opening track "Let Me Know" "a very weak and contrived start" and "a poor person's 'I Will Survive'." However, "the rest of the material is excellent. From both a disco standpoint and a Northern soul standpoint, I Have a Right is a welcome addition to Gaynor's catalog."[2]
Smash Hits, however, said, "A desperately dull collection of over orchestrated nightclub songs, an out of date rhythm machine and a struggling soul singer bring you every disco cliche in the book without a shred of originality or personality to rescue it. Formula dance music for computers."[3]
