Donna Summer’s iconic ‘Love To Love You Baby’, was first released in The Netherlands in June 1975 as ‘Love To Love You’ but subsequently released worldwide in November 1975 as ‘Love To Love You Baby’. As 2025 marks 50 years since the release of her debut international hit, we proudly celebrate and recognise this milestone anniversary as we present another unique and career-defining box set.
