Where's Once Upon A Time - Donna Summer (1976)

Donna Was Mentioned As An Artist Who Received...

multiple mentions- but no album was listed. My guess is there wasn't a concensus on one album (like how she didn't have any album in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums- it even noted how there was no concensus reached on any of her multiple compilations).
