Editorial Reviews

Dismissed as a one-hit heavy breather after her orgasmic dance-floor sensation "Love to Love You Baby" became a worldwide pop chart-topper, Donna Summer has made a career of confounding expectations. This double-disc set gets all the highlights, from the definitive synthesizer pop of "I Feel Love" through the disco diva of "On the Radio" to the proto dance-rock of "Bad Girls" and "Hot Stuff" to the gospel-inflected "She Works Hard for the Money" and the pop uplift of "This Time I Know It's for Real." Plus, of course, "No More Tears," her duet with Barbra Streisand, is a credential not bestowed upon one-hit wonders. --Ben Edmonds

Love this girl!.......2004-07-07

This is a great array of songs by Donna Summer-great songs of the 80's!

Loved this CD- love this singer!

Great Anthology.......2004-05-17

Yes, this covers pretty much all her hits. However, this Anthology is nearly a decade old if not longer. I still recommend it, though.

When this set was released, there were songs that were never released to the public that are included in this set. However, since then, I'M A RAINBOW was finally released and fulfilled the longing need of Donna Summer fans for her early 80s material.

It also includes her song CARRY ON which was released as a dance song that went to the top of the dance charts several years after this set was released.

Excellent collection.......2003-10-05

This is the perfect collection of hits. From the sexy "Love to Love you Baby" to her last full length album "Mistaken Identity" which has the r&b hit "When Love Cries". She also gives a new song "Carry On", which is a great dance song. I just wish that she would stop releasing greatest hits packages with only 2 new songs and release another full-length album. Don't waste your money on the other packages. If you want all her hits from day one get this one.

Just One More Song Missing for Me.......2003-09-05

Fantastic collection! If you are into the more "high-energy" disco hits in this collection, then I suggest you buy Giorgio Moroder's best, too. Just one song is missing for a casual fan like me: the 1987-88 hit "Dinner with Gershwin". Enjoy this fantastic testament to our times.
