Donna Summer passes away at age 63. My favorite song of hers as a kid was She Works Hard For Her Money. But after college, I rediscovered music from the disco era from where her song "Last Dance" is best known. Above is a clip from her appearance on the Midnight Special show in 1978. The video doesn't have the outrageous clothing and dancing of that era (which I love btw; you can see her in the 1978 movie Thank God It's Friday performing at a disco). But I only knew her by her songs so it was nice to hear her speak.
