In Memory of Donna Summer - Queen of Disco

May 17, 2012 | Bill V. | Comments (1) Facebook Twitter More...

I remember sitting with my boyhood friend Peter in the mid 1970s watching an early video on TV of Donna Summer's Love to Love You Baby.  Peter was enthralled by the backup dancers and said, in a wistful way, "when I grow up I want to be a backup dancer to Donna Summer".  Peter would be sad to learn today that Donna Summer has just died.  She was the Queen of the disco ballad.
