This album is solely responsible for my conversion from Glam to Disco. The first time I heard Spring Affair I thought I had died and gone to Heaven. Definitive Moroder prodution with thumping bass drum, throaty, and somehow naughty backing vocals from the exquisite Madeline Bell and Sue and Sunny. Makes you want to bounce off the walls. Summer Fever takes you to a different room in the same house, with seductive lighting and warm heady drinks. Autumn Changes is a particularly well observed track with a mid-tempo delivery and the hit single Winter Melody appears here in all it's glorious full-length. Even if you don't like "disco" the sheer exhuberance and poigniancy of this album makes it a must-have for every collection.

All of Donna Summers early albums (Love to love you baby, A love trilogy and four seasons) featured the "queen of disco" using her superb voice in a very soft and seductive way, something not so apparent on her later more well known productions.
It was during this early period that she was writing and producing ground breaking disco music with Giorgio Moroder & Pete Bellotte and there wasnt a club in the late seventies that wasnt filling a dance floor with one of her tracks.
As soon as you hear the opening chords that introduce "Spring Affair" you know you're in for something special and the mix that merges "Affair" into "Summer fever" is awesome (listen to the heartbeat bass. The album closes with the classic ballad "Winter melody" and you just want to go back to the beginning and start the CD all over again.
Many people will look at the four track listing and question value for money given the vast numbers of tracks available on todays CD's however, all four on this album are absolute gems.
Do yourself a favour and "Take a little Summer with you wherever you go" courtesy of the lady herself - An all time classic!!!!

I found this album very cheap recently, and it's a little gem. It's the sort of thing that nobody would have the guts to do these days: four songs on the theme of a love affair through the seasons (meets in spring, shags in summer, splits in autumn, sulks in winter, then meets a new one in the following spring... you get the idea). No hits, which I suppose is why it's so obscure. But Moroder's production is at its most lush and sparkling, Donna sounds great and the artwork is a hoot: calendar shots of Donna including one of her as Marilyn in the Seven Year Itch. Well worth a go

Summer Magic!!
It's very hard to choose the best Donna Summer album for her 70's hey-day period. From "Love to love you" right up to the stomping "Bad Girls", they're all pretty brilliant. Read more
