More on Donna Summer
Description from Wikipedia:
Donna Summer (born LaDonna Adrian Gaines December 31, 1948) is an American singer-songwriter and a genre-spanning musician who gained prominence during the disco era of music.
Summer was trained as a gospel singer prior to her introduction in the music industry, as were many then-contemporary music artists. However, Summer's notable songwriting capabilities, in addition to her collaborations with producer-songwriters Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, were able to set her apart from rivals in the industry.
Though she is most notable for her disco hits, Summer's repertoire has expanded to include contemporary R&B, rock, mainstream pop, and even gospel. Summer is one of the most successful recording artists of the 1970s. She was the first artist to have three consecutive double albums hit #1 on the Billboard charts. She also became the first female artist to have four number-one singles in a twelve-month period. According to her own official MySpace page, it is claimed that Summer has sold over 130 million records worldwide
