Info for The Dance Collection (Remastered)

This is a compilation of 12' extended version re-mixes with some previously unreleased material. A fine collection of the original 12-inch dance mixes of eight of Donna Summer's classic disco singles--half of which have never appeared on CD before--this compilation is a must for disco fans.

If for no other reason, „The Dance Collection“ is indispensable because it contains the full 17-minute 'MacArthur Park Suite,' possibly Summer's most gloriously over-the-top record ever, which was excised from the CD edition of her „Live and More“ double album.

Other highlights include the stunningly minimal 'I Feel Love,' as hypnotic as a classic krautrock track by Kraftwerk or Neu!, and softened only slightly by Summer's erotic lead vocal. Shockingly, Summer's first hit, 'Love to Love You Baby,' is not included. This 18-minute track is quite possibly the most influential 12-inch single ever released, and the lack of it is puzzling in this otherwise excellent compilation.

Donna Summer
Maintaining an unbroken string of hits throughout the 70s and 80s, most of which she wrote, Donna Summer (1948-2012) holds the record for most consecutive double albums to hit #1 on the Billboard charts (three) and is the first woman to have four #1 singles in a twelve-month period, three as a solo artist and one as a duo with Barbra Streisand. A five-time Grammy Award-winner, she was the first artist to win the Grammy for Best Rock Vocal Performance, Female (1979, "Hot Stuff"), as well as the first-ever recipient of the Grammy for Best Dance Recording (1997, "Carry On").

She held six American Music Awards, three consecutive #1 platinum double albums (she’s the only artist, male or female, ever to accomplish this), 11 gold albums, four #1 singles, 2 platinum singles, and 12 gold singles. Donna was also the first female artist to have a #1 single and #1 album on the Billboard charts simultaneously (“MacArthur Park” and Live & More, 1978), a feat she also repeated six months later (“Hot Stuff” and Bad Girls, 1979). She has charted 21 #1 hits on the Billboard Disco/Dance charts over a period of 25 years, a milestone solidifying her as THE Queen of Dance. In 2004, she became one of the first inductees, as both an Artist Inductee and a Record Inductee (for 1977's "I Feel Love") into the Dance Music Hall of Fame in New York City.

In 2013, Donna Summer was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. It is estimated that Ms. Summer has sold more than 130 million records worldwide.
