Donna Summer Dies At Age 63

The Queen of Disco, Donna Summer, has died at the age of 63.


Summer defined the sound of disco, becoming especially well known for her erotically charged performances and recordings. The BBC famously banned her 1975 hit Love to Love You Baby from the airwaves for its intense aural-gasms and because it was just too damn FUNKY (probably). They went so far as to count the number of orgasms (for Science of course) and found that there were twenty three  instances of ladies having too much passion in their lives. Scandalous.

This was of course just in the five minute radio edit. The album included a seventeen minute disco sexathon (before you ask- YES I've tried counting the orgasms in this version, the jury's still out) which we present to you in celebration of The First Lady of Love.
