THE QUEEN OF DISCO, DONNA SUMMER, Takes the Eternal Ride To Funky Town (1948-2012)

Donna Summer passed away on Thursday after a battle with cancer surrounded by her family.

While most people know Ms. Summer as the woman who made Disco worth dancing to, the singer was less enamored of the title of Queen of Disco due, in most part, to her love of good ole Rock-n-Roll.

But while the song style of Disco might have pigeon-holed her, Ms Summer’s incredible voice and catchy music remain every bit as powerful now as it did back when her song Love to Love You Baby hit the charts in 1975 (which, by the way, was pre-Disco).

Ms. Summer was 63.

After the break is one of my personal favorites from this incredibly talented woman.
