THE DISCO ERA.....WHAT A PARTY!

I talk about the early 70's because that's the era where I started to develop my dreams. I wanted to be a singer, a performer, an entertainer. Actually, I also wanted to be rich and famous. It's crazy how I developed a strong passion for the arts. I was now in the club scene big time. Gloria Gaynor was the queen of disco then. Soon after, a new diva came into the limelight, that diva was Donna Summer. Oh my goodness, I was actually in love with another woman. Some may call it an obsession, others may now call it straight up stalking.
Donna Summer was actually my idol. She took the world by storm and she owned the throne for many years. There was no one on the planet who didn't know who she was. Donna Sumer crossed over into everyone's radio station with a whole new sound of music. Her producer Giorgio Moroder was brilliant. Donna also dominated the dance club scene. Discos was where you had to be. The only thing we lived for was a good party. That was the ultimate hang.
It didn't matter what music you listened to before because you were going to hear her anyway........all up in your face.
