Donna Summers has taken the last dance

RIP.

Shame, beautiful woman, beautiful voice and she had class.

Back in the day, all the audio manufacturers at the Consumer Electronics show demoed their speakers with "I Feel Love." RIP, Donna.

The older you get the more that the death of those that you know happens.

She has boogie oogie oogied till she just cant boogie no more. My sister was a big fan, so I had a lot of DS exposure. My brothers balenced it with a healthy dose of Led Zep and Montrose (that dude passed also). See them on the other side.

Giorgio Moroder produced and arranged that track.

Brain Eno and Bowie claim it was the birth of techno.

that's "A Taste of Honey". I know because I have it on my music rotation. I love that musical genre. Check out "Sukiyaki" by the same group. Their Youtube videos are awesome.


"Last Dance", "Love to love you Baby", "Hot Stuff".....those were all AWESOME songs in my opinion.

I got to say it was a fun time back then. Lots of hookups when sex was safe.

RIP

Dang....so sorry to hear this - she was world class on many levels. So many memories of her songs in that special era when women performers were so sexy without being over the top like so many over-rated ones today.

Thank you Donna - you left behind so much incredible music and now heaven has gained another angel.

Love to love ya baby!

One of the best from the disco era and continued to show her talent to a new generation.
Gone but unlikely to be forgotten.
