K Tells Vol. 14


K tells -   'Won' Word Wonders - Every One's a Winner!


Fantastic - 22 Original Hits - 22 Original Stars (K-tel TU 233 USA - TC 212 CAN - TA 248 AUS) (2021 Remastered Expanded Edition) (1973)      Fantastic was originally released by K-tel in the USA, Canada and Australia in 1973.  They each had different track listings, and different cover artwork. Take a look in the 'Artwork' folder of your download for all the different front and back covers, record labels and track lists for each country. This 2021 remaster has been compiled to feature the very best song selections from all three versions, creating a 22 track compilation with a running time of 77:26 CD length.

Dynamite - 44 Original Hits - 44 Original Stars (K-tel TE 298 UK - TU 2360 USA - TC 219 CAN - TG 117 GER) (2021 Remastered Expanded Edition) (2CD) (1974)       Dynamite was originally released by K-tel in four different countries. It was released in the UK, USA, Canada and Germany. They each had different track listings, and different cover artwork. Take a look in the 'Artwork' folder of your download for all the different front and back covers, record labels and track lists for each country. For this 2021 remaster, I have selected the 44 very best tracks from all four versions for a special 2CD set.

Disc 1 comprises of 22 of the very best song selections with a running time of 78:25 CD length.

Disc 2 comprises of 22 of the very best song selections with a running time of 79:07 CD length.

Rocket - 20 Original Hits - 20 Original Artists (Arcade ‎ADE P17 UK) (2021 Remaster) (1976)       Rocket was not released by K-tel, but by one of their contemporaries Arcade in 1976. This was a UK only compilation featuring 20 smash chart hits. This 2021 remaster features all the complete original unedited 7" single mixes, including a few hard to find tracks, some never released on CD with a new running time of 66:41 CD length.

Enjoy!
