Description

Anyone looking for a Greatest Hits CD that properly sums up the classic artistry of Donna Summer is in trouble. Of the many compilations available to buy, all have shortcomings. On the face of it this CD looks like the perfect representation of her USA pop hits. The problem here is in the sound quality and versions inluded. The mastering is uneven. Bass and volume jump up and down all over the place. Another problem is the versions of some of the hits. The idea here was to have single versions so that they sound as they did on the radio. The version of Love To Love You Baby is an entirely differentmore… mix. The original mix to be precise. The 4.50 hit version was actually a rerecording and this version was a flop European release from 1975. Could it Be Magic is not the fantastic single version but a US radio edit which takes all of the fun and passion out of it. I Feel Love was an international hit single in it's 5.50 album version whereas here they fade it out before it gets to four minutes. Worst of all are Heaven Knows and Dim All The Lights which have been badly edited from the segued versions on the mixed ON THE RADIO hits collection and yes, you can tell. It might sound like I'm being picky but these hits are essential Disco classics and sound nothing like they should at all. We need a new Donna collection and we need it done right.
