That's twenty-two tracks that you rarely see on any of the compilations, and all of them are classics. If Casablanca/Mercury/Universal (and spiritually Atlantic and Geffen) enjoy compiling Donna's work so often, why not change the mix up a little bit...? It's incredibly rare to have an artist with that kind of body of work over the course of twenty some-odd years, so why not explore that catalog creatively?
It's good to have Donna back and making dance anthems with Giorgio Moroder. No, let me rephrase that: It's great to have Donna back and making dance anthems with Giorgio Moroder. "Dream-a-Lot's Theme (I Will Live For Love)" ranks up there with "Melanie," "Working The Midnight Shift," and "Love Will Always Find You" among the finest work that the Moroder/Summer team have come up with. Here's hoping for more.
If you don't have any Donna Summer compilations - *****
If you have all the classics already - ***1/2
