The *real* pity is that someone who knew how to operate a camera wasn't able to record this event. I was there, the night of July 7, 1979.

She went out there a nobody - she came back a star! This part of FI is directly across the Great South Bay from my former home in Bayport. Perhaps the sound (if not the debauchery) carried across the water.

These images are so precious. France shining bright in all her youth and disco glory. Thank you kindly

Mind blowing. Thanks for posting.

Tre Joli.......she was actually not scheduled, she replaced Donna Summer who was set to perform, but overlapping commitments forced Donna to back out last minute. Btw, before some haters start, Donna WAS NOT born again at this time, so it had nothing to do with the cancellation. Regardless, it brought the incredible France to light, so it was a blessing.

Can't believe she was only 16 years old

Stupid question time, what's the name of the track?

[@Robin-xt7yo]

Song is "Come to Me" written by Canadian producer Tony Green.
