VA- Extended Seventies, The Dawning of The 12 Inch Era [2006] (3 x CDs)

“Extended Seventies, The Dawning of the 12 Inch Era” is a 3-CD compilation album released on May 15, 2006, by Optimum Sounds in the UK. 

Disco was all about the 12-inch singles, and it really did encompass a variety of genres and styles while it lasted. It features various artists and genres including Electronic, Funk/Soul, Pop, New Wave, Hi NRG, Synth-pop and Disco. The album is a well-curated and accurate sample of three facets of the music. Disc 1 features the biggest hits and acts like Donna Summer, Chic and Cheryl Lynn. Disc 2 is the deep cuts, with Cerrone, Bohannon, and Gino Soccio. Disc 3 features New Wave artists like Gary Numan, Lene Lovich, Sparks and the Flying Lizards at their most danceable. The album is a clear and well-balanced 3CD set with no sampled 80s-90s 12 Inch remixes. (B)
