Warner Music Japan is planning to roll-out CD reissues of the Madonna catalogue, featuring 16 of her classic albums and soundtracks. Many of the titles have been out of print so this is an opportunity to get these CDs back in the market.
Who's That Girl is the first soundtrack album by American singer and songwriter Madonna. It was released on July 20, 1987, in the UK to promote the film of the same name. It also contains songs by Scritti Politti, Duncan Faure, Club Nouveau, Coati Mundi, and Michael Davidson.
Madonna began working on the soundtrack in December 1986, and contacted Patrick Leonard and Stephen Bray, who had worked as producers on her third studio album True Blue (1986). She felt that an uptempo song and a downtempo song were needed for the album. Leonard composed the music for the uptempo song, with Madonna providing the melody and lyrics. The singer named the track Who's That Girl and, believing this to be a better title than Slammer, changed the name of the film to the same.
Together, Madonna and Leonard also developed the downtempo ballad The Look of Love. Two more songs were composed for the film with Bray, the first being the dance track Causing a Commotion, and the other being Can't Stop, a track inspired by Sixties Motown and the group Martha and the Vandellas.
