Summary:

A celebratory look at how the groundbreaking disco hit changed the world. A disco touchstone recorded by Donna Summer in 1976 and released on her fifth studio album, I remember yesterday, in 1977, "I feel love" is one of the most important records in music history, and one of the most influential. This book tells not only the story of the song but also the story of its all-pervading impact upon the world of popular music. Firsthand experiences and original interviews with a host of musicians, disc jockeys, and dancers loudly illustrate the record's initial impact and its continuing influence. -- Adapted from back cover.
