Autographs of Donna Summer
Donna Adrian Gaines (December 31, 1948 – May 17, 2012), known professionally as Donna Summer, was an American singer and songwriter. She gained prominence during the disco era of the 1970s and became known as the "Queen of Disco", while her music gained a global following.
Born and raised in Boston, Summer dropped out of high school before graduating and began her career as the lead singer of a blues rock band named Crow and moved to New York City. In 1968, she joined the German adaptation of the musical Hair in Munich, where she spent several years living, acting, and singing. There, she met music producers Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, and released her first album, the European market-only Lady of the Night in 1974. Following the recording and European release of the groundbreaking disco anthem, "Love to Love You Baby", she signed with Casablanca Records in 1975, where it was released in North America. In the US, the single became her first top five hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 2 in 1976. Summer's first three Casablanca albums — Love to Love You Baby, A Love Trilogy and Four Seasons of Love — all went gold in the US and led to her informal title "First Lady of Love" in the popular music media. Her fourth Casablanca release, I Remember Yesterday (1977), launched the top ten US and number one UK hit "I Feel Love", which has since been hailed as one of the most important records in pop music history. After recording much of her first six albums in Munich with Moroder and Belotte, Summer and the producers relocated to the United States, where Summer would continue to record successful singles such as "Last Dance", MacArthur Park", "Heaven Knows", "Hot Stuff", "Bad Girls", "Dim All the Lights", "No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)" with Barbra Streisand, and "On the Radio".
Starting in 1978, Summer first topped the Billboard 200 with the live album, Live and More, thus beginning a streak of three consecutive number one albums, including Bad Girls (1979) and the compilation album, On the Radio: Greatest Hits Volumes I & II (1980). In achieving this, Summer became the first and only artist to have three number one double albums. All three albums were certified platinum or higher in the United States, with Bad Girls selling over two million copies. Summer was the first female artist to record three number one singles in one calendar year, doing so in 1979. Summer's success was interrupted by the late 1970s social backlash against disco music, and in 1980, she left Casablanca Records for Geffen Records. As a response, her next album, The Wanderer, found Summer recording mostly rock and new wave music, as well as inspirational music inspired by her newfound Christian faith. However, her Geffen Records recordings were not as successful as predicted. Summer returned to the top of the pop charts in 1983 with the single, "She Works Hard for the Money", off the album of the same name, which was released off of Mercury Records after it was found she owed Casablanca one more album. Despite this success, Summer's recordings began foundering not too long afterwards. Rumors of homophobic comments she allegedly made at a 1983 concert led to a falling-out with Summer's gay fanbase. In 1989, Summer worked with the team of Stock Aitken Waterman and scored her first top ten US hit in six years with "This Time I Know It's for Real", which would be her fourteenth and final top ten hit of her career. Summer would make the Hot 100 one last time in 1999 with her rendition of "I Will Go with You (Con te partirò)".
