Driven to Fantasy


Driven to Fantasy is the second studio album by American singer and billboard model Angelyne, released in 1986 on her independent record label, Pink Kitten Records. It was her first musical release since her self-titled debut album and the rise to fame caused by her self-promoting billboard campaign, which made her a fixture on the Los Angeles scene. Produced by Angelyne and her guitarist David Pasarow, Driven to Fantasy is a dance-pop album with strong influences of new wave music. Angelyne collaborated with Pasarow and Dale Carroll on writing the songs for the album.

Background and recording

Driven to Fantasy features four new songs, two dance mixes, and two previously released singles, "My List" and "Skin Tight", which were first issued in June 1983 by Erika Records.
In 1987, the album was reissued in Italy on pink vinyl with a different track listing. This edition included "Sexy Stranger", "Rock 'n' Roll Rebel", "Emotional", and "Kiss Me L.A.", songs previously recorded with Jordan Michaels.

Cover and packaging

The album cover was shot by Larry L. Lombardi and depicts Angelyne leaning back on the hood of her pink Chevrolet Corvette. The same image was originally used on her first billboard on Sunset Boulevard in February 1984.

The record was and remains available through the official Angelyne fan club.
