This 20th CENTURY MASTERS installment collects the finest tracks from Donna Summer's remarkable career. While Summer was never in quite the same league as, say, Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight, or even superstars that followed in Summer's wake such as Mariah Carey and Mary J. Blige, her sultry performances on disco anthems like "Hot Stuff," "I Feel Love," and "Love To Love You Baby" show that she was certainly a diva to be reckoned with. Though the 20th CENTURY MASTERS set is a little slight at 11 tracks (for a more extensive package, try the two-disc GOLD collection), it's a concise look at the key moments in the career of this undeniable hitmaker.
