“The Queen of Disco”, and most beautiful Donna Summer has died following a battle with cancer. She was 63
years old. A native of Boston, Donna began her career as a
backup singer, most notably for Three Dog Night in the early 1970s. She
eventually caught the attention of Casablanca Records and within a year her
single “Love to Love You Baby” hit #2 on the Billboard singles chart. The
latter half of the 1970s saw Donna dominated the charts with three consecutive
number one albums, and four number one singles within a 13-month period. Her
most notable singles included “I Feel Love”, “Hot Stuff”, “Bad Girls”, and her
version of the Richard Harris ballad “MacArthur Park”.
