RARE German Import!! Donna Summer Greatest Hits LP with 3 pre-Casablanca songs.
Vinyl is near mint.
Donna Summer is as important a figure in pop music as David Bowie or Stevie Wonder, or any of those icons who shaped the '70s zeitgeist. To paraphrase one of those icons, Sir Elton John said that Summer changed the way people thought about music.
There is perhaps no sound that defines disco better than Donna Summer's hypnotic "I Feel Love." The 45-year-old track was crowned the GREATEST dance song OF ALL TIME by Rolling Stone.
With five GRAMMY Awards and 18 nominations, Summer is the only artist to win awards in dance, gospel, rock, and R&B. Her catalog spans decades and features reinvention after reinvention. She took the 1970s by storm with a string of seven classic albums — nearly entirely written and produced by Summer and European collaborators that culminated in this compilation!!!! This LP includes some of her most sublime and quintessential songs, all of which distill disco’s sense of humor, camp, and its otherworldly sound.
As the ‘70s ended and disco "died," Donna Summer was nowhere near finished. She went on to release 10 more albums. Donna Summer never stopped experimenting and creating. And between Madonna’s sexual liberation, Janet Jackson’s social justice-inflected concept albums, Beyoncé’s music historian tendencies, and Lady Gaga’s dance-pop as an artistic spectacle, it’s clear that over the last five decades, our favorite pop artists have followed Donna Summer’s musical blueprint.
