Something Special (Sabrina album)

Something Special is the first compilation album by Italian singer Sabrina. It was released in 1988 for the Scandinavian market only.

Album information

Mega Records of Copenhagen, Denmark, was very busy producing unique remix and/or compilation releases by several well-known pop/dance-artists in the late 1980s. After the single-releases of "All of Me (Boy Oh Boy)" and "My Chico", but before Sabrina's second studio album was released, Mega issued a compilation of remixes of Sabrina's songs issued until then. Several of these mixes are unique (Extended Versions of "My Sharona"and "Lady Marmalade"), while others are very rare at least (The PWL-Remix of "My Chico"). The releases were given an attractive packaging, with the vinyl LP coming as a picture-disc in a gatefold-sleeve, accompanied by a poster, and the CD featuring six bonus-tracks.

A Little Something Special

"A Little Something Special" is a comic book story created by Don Rosa to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Scrooge McDuck's first appearance in Carl Barks's "Christmas on Bear Mountain" in 1947.

Plot

Scrooge is informed that next week, Duckburg is celebrating the 50th anniversary of when he first arrived there, and he wonders why anyone would care when he arrived. Donald Duck then tells him that the Golden Jubilee celebration includes a contest to find the best suggestion for the perfect gift for Scrooge for a million dollar prize. Scrooge is not at all keen on the idea, and refuses to admit to Donald or Huey, Dewey and Louie what his desire would be.

Meanwhile, the Beagle Boys visit Gyro Gearloose, claiming to have reformed and offering to pay him to build a giant suction device that they claim they will be using to harvest oranges; in addition to this, they buy a bike-saucer using money supplied in bags baring the initials "F.G." (which they say is a federal grant). Meanwhile, Magica De Spell uses money from the same supplier (she claims she got it from her Fairy Godmother) to purchase a projecto-gem, a transmutation wand, and some global-transport dust. She then uses the last of those to teleport to meet with the Beagle Boys and the money supplier, Flintheart Glomgold; they have all teamed up to take down Scrooge at the celebration and achieve their own goals.
