Comment:

And on this night one might ask, wherefore is this 70's collection different from all other 70's collections?
Glad you asked. This started out as a game my wife and I sometimes play at dinner -- trying to remember the most cringe-making pop tunes from our youth that we can. And a lot of them are here. I mean, Jimmie Osmond's voice -- gives you a frisson just thinking about it, don't it?
The other part of it was trying to show the heady bi-polarity of that decade with some truly great rock and funk. There were a lot of sparkly bits in all that dross and dreck.
And to add some versimilitude, every three or four songs, I grafted in the k-chunk sound an 8-track makes when it switches programs. (That blue word is a link, by the way, to the sound at 8-track Heaven. You may have to hunt down the proper codec to hear it.) Every time I listen to Jungleland, part of my brain still awaits that godawful k-chunk in the middle of the the song. It never comes. Don't know if that makes me happy or sad.
