Comment:

You heard 'em on [i]Don Kirshner's Rock Concert[/i]; you collected 'em on K-Tel Records and Tapes . . . and you spent the last quarter-century reliving their short-lived glory on countless infomercials. These songs weren't just [i]released[/i] in the '70s — they [i]defined[/i] the '70s. When double-knit-blazer'd anchorman Ron Burgundy wanted to capture the era's free-wheelin' swingerhood, where did he turn? To the Starland Vocal Band's "Afternoon Delight," its syrup-spangled harmonies tighter than a pair of Sasson jeans. Terry Jacks transforms Jacques Brel's "Le Moribond (The Dying Man)" into the era's quintessential tear-jerker, "Seasons In the Sun," bidding an emotion-laden adieu to his wife, his life . . . and further chart success. How big was it? Even [i]Nirvana[/i] covered it. And New Jersey's favorite one-hit wonder, Looking Glass, hit #1 pay dirt with "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)," a soulful story-song of a sailor who's torn between the two loves of his life: the sweet and gorgeous barmaid of the title and the ever-beckoning sea. Whether you're hankering for a [i]Brady Bunch[/i] of memories or a Wacky Pack of retro hits, we've got 'em, from "Dancing In the Moonlight" to "Midnight at the Oasis."
