Finally!, Not The Same Tracks

(4 out of 5 stars)
"Yes, I know there are so many "collections" and "greatest hits" packages featuring Donna Summer, (and most popular artists for that matter), BUT this one at least goes one step beyond the others. Through out her career Donna had recorded many heartfelt and stellar ballads, perhaps since she is and will always be known as THE Diva of Dance Music these tracks have too often been overlokked. This collection features 4 of them, although the 2 from the Donna Summer album "Women In Me" and "Mystery of Love" are too formulamatic for Donna's talents,
(these were Quincy Jones productions), there are 2 examples of Donna's ballads at their best "All Through The Night" from the Bad Girls album, and "Full of Emptiness" from the Love To Love You Baby album, these 2 tracks and the Janis Joplin tribute
"My Baby Understands" make this collection a must have for any TRUE devotee of Donna Summer, the truly greatest female voice in Pop Music EVER."

"NOTE: For some reason this review came up on a old handle I had with CD Now, so I copied it onto my regular handle.
