international prominence, and she was crowned the Queen of Disco.She and Moroder cranked out an amazing number of successful singles
and albums from 1976 to 1980, going their separate ways after the
disco backlash.Love Trilogy (1976)
A big step up from the previous album, as Bellotte and Moroder invent
their formula all at once: strident strings, robotic rhythms,
sweeping suites, campy covers (Barry Manilow's "Could It Be Magic").Summer also gets to sing at full voice, instead of just cooing and
simpering.The ballad "Come With Me" and
forgettable "Wasted" bring the disc to a weak conclusion, but this is
probably the most underrated of Summer's Casablanca work.The one classic cut
is the relentless "I Feel Love," and the ballad "Can't We Sit Down
(And Talk It Over)" is also enjoyable, but the rest of the disc is
amazingly weak.Summer, Moroder and Bellotte, and I suspect that at this point Summer was beginning to contribute to the music as well as lyrics."She Works Hard For The Money") and the moderate hit "I Love You."Live And More (1978)
A double album, three sides live and one side of new studio material.Bad Girls (1979)
This two record set (available on one CD) finds Summer starting to
really take the reins as a composer (though she'd received lyrics credits as far back as her debut): she wrote "Dim All The Lights," a
delightful conventional disco song with one of her patented slow
openings.The other
memorable achievement was "Hot Stuff," a timeless tale of desire
with rock guitars and a great riff.Barbra Streisand "No More Tears
(Enough Is Enough)."Casablanca Records)
she turned her back on the disco which made her name.Worse, Moroder and Bellotte (who again did most of the writing along with Summer and Faltermeyer) have no interest in variety this time, and track after track sounds like a rewrite of "Hot Stuff" ("Nightlife").Most of the musicians are the usual old hands; the only notable guests are Lee Sklar and Steve Lukather.Me Argentina," which she does a hell of a lot more convincingly than Madonna.If you're a fan you owe it to yourself to check this out.Donna Summer (1982)
Produced by Quincy Jones, and it gets his usual formulaic treatment.Summer belting like never before, and another reggae tune, "Unconditional Love" (with Musical Youth) was an MTV
favorite.Cats Without Claws (1984)
Whoops.Another Place And Time (1989)
Produced and written by Stock Aitken Waterman, the Brit pop trio
responsible for a string of 80s pop hitmakers like Rick Astley.They were past their prime by this point, but hey, so was Donna.You can argue that SAW
were the Giorgio Moroder of the 1980s, but at its worst disco
still had a modicum of melodic interest and musicianship that's
almost totally lacking from this set.Mistaken Identity (1991)
Yes, this is that blond wig and leather jacket cover.In 1993 Summer contributed "La Vie En Rose" to an Edith Piaf tribute album.Summer's voice sounds positively
ordinary, and her voice is still the best part of the record.Christmas albums as a rule, but only the
most devoted Donna disciple will rate this above standard Christmas
fare. |
