A scoop of pop/wave from 1980-1983 taken from a stack of K-Tel LPs. Nuff said.

CD | Rock/Pop

Comment:

Here's a second volume of "losers," tracks recorded from vinyl that didn't make it onto other compilations. Most cuts are obscure and yet somehow appealing. Choose to lose!

Wow - now here's something that's more interesting than yer average tracklisting! Really looking forward to hearing it, especially the aforementioned Jack Webb one - and I admit that I'm always entertained by anything George Formby-related. Great stuff.

Mind Boggling! I know that if I ran into some of these in a used bin I would succumb to the morbid curiosity (although I haven't owned a turntable since '87)

The only losers here are the folks on the cover. And maybe Burt Reynolds. Noel Harrison might fall into that category too. And perhaps Sally Field too after that insipid Oscar speech, but then again she did win the Academy Award, so maybe we should scratch her from the loser list. Anyway, winning mix mate!

I just snotted my keyboard when I saw Sally Field . . . always fancied her, but that wasn't the reaction I gave a few seconds ago . . .
