Discography Roberta Kelly released four other albums: Zodiacs (1977)—the controversial album that Casablanca Records, during the disco heyday, refused to release. Imports from Italy swamped the international dance floors, creating a blockbuster hit in the title track and songs such as “Love Sign”. Many feel this album was the warm-up to the Moroder/Bellotte team dabbling with retro flavors, as the precursor to Donna Summer’s “I Remember Yesterday”. Getting The Spirit (1978)—one of the first disco records to be a complete album of gospel songs, which followed Kelly’s commitment to becoming a Christian. It has long been rumoured that is was Kelly who led Oasis label-mate Donna Summer to becoming a “born again” Christian as well. This album featured a dance version of “Oh Happy Day” and cult dance track “In My Father’s House”. Roots Can Be Anywhere (1980) - The album did not gain as much success as it could have due to the decline of Disco. The album was a moderate success. The album includes such singles as “Tribute To Love”, “Aie”, “Kabalka Shaka*, “Meil Masai” and “Roots Can Be Anywhere.” Tell Me (1981) This album was her final release during the 1980s. Includes the single “Patty Cake/Making It To The Top.”|hereafter, Kelly released another album through Baby Records in Italy, featuring “Pata Pata” as a single.
