Donna Summer seven-album vinyl collection to be released this winter
Late disco queen, Donna Summer, will be celebrated with a limited edition seven-album vinyl collection due for release this December.
An iconic disco star, and recently inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, this release is big news for veteran Donna Summer fans and the new generation of admirers alike. It maps a 35-year long career including gold-certified albums, chart-topping singles and collaborations with Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, and many more. Her work with Giorgio Moroder enabled her to capture the disco era spirit perfectly, but at the turn of the 1980s she embarked on a new chapter, making a segue into a bluesy, pop-rock sound.
Have a look at this rather sultry music video for “Bad Girls” from 1979:
The Donna Summer Vinyl Collection collates six albums, originally released on Geffen Records and Atlantic Records (The Wanderer, Donna Summer, Cats Without Claws, All Systems Go, Another Place And Time and Mistaken Identity). And it includes a seventh, previously shelved album, from 1981 called I’m A Rainbow that has never before had a vinyl release, and will be housed in a two-LP gatefold sleeve. The box set also comes with linear notes, plus archive interviews with the disco queen herself.
The release date is December 1st, click here to pre-order a copy now.
