VA - The 60's + 70's + 80's Summer Album [2016] (9 x CD's)




SUMMER ALBUMS

VA - The 60's + 70's + 80's Summer Album [2016] (9 x CD's)


Three triple CD set of great music from the 60's, 70's and 80's. A fantastic collection. All the favourites are here plus much more. There are some hidden gems on this compilation like Everyday People by Sly and the Family Stone and Flowers on the Wall by the Statler Brothers. But what really impresses is the sound quality, the familiar tracks to sound better. One interesting note here is that the compiler has used the demo version of "Distant Drums" by Jim Reeves. This is a nice refreshing addition, as we are all used to the overdubbed chart version from 1966. (Amazon)

  9. I like it! Kind of a smattering but some interesting alternative inclusions from major artists. Looking at the list I'm glad to see Isley Brothers "Summer Breeze", Melanie "Ruby Tuesday", Steve Miller Band "Abracadabra", Heatwave "Boogie Nights", and Taylor Dayne, amongst others. Of course.. any compilation with Edison Lighthouse.. gotta be OK.
    Thanks for another good time, BB!

    1. Hi mrRadio,
      Hope all is well.
      I was interested in the opening track of each CD, whist really good choices I would have gone for a more impactful starter. That aside they are an enjoyable listen. Gary Puckett & the Union Gap Young Girl is a great track too...

      Cheers.
