A former home of mine.....Dorchester, Mass native and five-time Grammy winner Donna Summer, whose pulsing anthems such as "Last Dance," "Love to Love You Baby," and "Bad Girls" became the soundtrack for the disco era of the 1970s, has died.

    Pretty sad. I didn't know she was sick. I do remember hearing an interview with her that later in her life she discovered religion and was embarrassed by her 70s songs that she felt were a little too sexual.

    My Mom had this on 8-track yes that's right 8-track :D

    That's exactly why she sold over 150 million albums and she was sexy too.

    Love To Love You Baby

    One of the very few to release 3-4 double albums in the 70's I think. I just remember it was a lot.
