In 1984, after the release of her self-titled debut album, Madonna wanted to solidify her future in the music business, by building on the success of the first album. She decided to become one of the record producers, but Warner Bros. was not ready to give her the artistic freedom that she wanted. She chose Nile Rodgers as the primary producer of the album, due to his work with David Bowie.
Like A Virgin was recorded at Power Station Studio in New York at a quick pace. Rodgers enlisted the help of his former Chic band mate Bernard Edwards who was the bassist. Like a Virgin has sold more than 21 million copies worldwide and became one of the best selling albums of all time.
