Never a fan of her 70's disco music. For me, she didn't hit her stride until 1981 when she was paried with Kashif for "I'm In Love", which finally ushered her music into a new decade. Then, of course, she followed that up with her most successful album "Get Loose". My favorites from her are the two aforementioned albums, along with "A Long Time Coming" and "Flirt". She definately had a hit-and-miss career but several of those albums were really strong.

her second album Music Box is an underrated gem...if you like disco,that is lol it's a strong,relentless disco album filled with great grooves.There were no big hit singles on it,but I think it's great.
