SUMMER, Donna (1948-2012). Document signed ("Donna Summer"), Munich, 14 October 1975. [With:] A partly-Xeroxed copy of a document signed, Munich, 15 July 1974.

In German. One page on Say Yes Music AG letterhead (file holes at left margin); 11 pages (stapled, creases).

Donna Summer's contract with Say Yes Music, with whom she would publish and produce her early hit songs including 'Love to Love You Baby,' and 'I Feel Love.' Say Yes Music was a publishing and production entity associated with Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, who composed many of the underlying compositions of Donna Summer's best known songs—most of which were recorded at Musicland Studios in Munich. The contract, executed in July 1974, set a three year term (ending 1 May 1977) and offered her 7% of the gross sales on the first 50,000 units sold, 8% up to 100,000 and 9% for sales over 100,000. During that term, Summer was obliged to produce at least four albums. The signed document, dated 14 October 1975, altered the notification period for terminating the contract. The final page stapled to the contract is a photocopy of a signed receipt from Donna Summer for 3,500 DM, received on 23 August 1974.
83/8 x 113/4 in. (21.3 x 29.8 cm.), the single document; 83/8 x 117/8 in. (21.3 x 30.2 cm.), the stapled document
