Four Seasons of Honey is the fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter Donna Summer. Released on October 11, 1976, this concept anthology became her third consecutive successful album to be certified golden in the U.s.a.. It peaked at #29 on the Billboard 200. In add-on, all the cuts on this anthology went to number i on the disco nautical chart.[three]

This was the third concept album Summertime had made, though unlike the previous two which had contained one long rails on side one and a small choice of slightly shorter ones on side two, Four Seasons of Love was more equally balanced. The album told the story of a dearest affair by relating it to the four seasons. Side i contained "Jump Affair" and "Summer Fever", both disco tracks, and side ii contained "Fall Changes" (a slightly slower disco number) and "Winter Melody" (which had an fifty-fifty slower trounce), plus a reprise of "Spring Affair". This concept was reflected in the four photos of Summer, one for each flavour of the year, in a pull-out 1977 calendar included with the original LP album. The photograph on the encompass was, fittingly, the Summertime pic. Summer's "first lady of love" image came across strongly on this anthology, though her trademark moans and groans were slightly less evident than on previous piece of work. Pics included "Winter" in a fur with a tear on her cheek; "Bound" in a Scarlett O'Hara way hoop skirt on a swing; and "Autumn" re-enacting Marilyn Monroe'due south famous scene from The Seven Year Itch with the billowing white dress over the subway grate. This is an allusion to her vocal "Dear to Love Yous Baby", for which she cites Monroe as an inspiration.

As with the previous two albums, Four Seasons of Dear was distributed by unlike record labels in unlike countries, including Casablanca Records in the U.S. Edited versions of "Bound Thing" and "Winter Melody" were released in diverse places, simply neither had a big touch on on any charts (although the latter made the Meridian thirty on the United kingdom singles chart). The anthology was also released as a Society Special Edition / Society Sonderauflage in W Federal republic of germany on the Atlantic Records Label.
