CD Reviews

There are many lackluster compilations from the 70s. This is
Ford Madox Prefect | The Dark Side Of The Moon | 07/28/2006

"There are scores of compilations of 1970s "rock" available, but in most of them, listeners have to skip and wade through track after track of horrific Disco or trashy pop to find something that even rocks a little bit. How many rockers want to buy a compilation full of Disco pop one-hit-wonders just to get to that mediocre third-generation mix of Mississippi Queen? This set, however, is different. At this price for a three disc set, it seems almost tolerable to have one album's worth of good solid rock mixed in with Disco One-Hit-Wonder pap. But this set is not like that. First, all the tracks are being published by the original label, and the label has put together good quality masterings. Second, most of these tracks ROCK! This is the real stuff. You won't find too much garbagy discofied pap here. You will find classics such as BOC's Don't Fear The Reaper and Ian Hunter's Once Bitten Twice Shy, but you will also find the proto punk of Iggy and the Stooges, Molly Hatchet's air-guitar inducing Whiskey Man, and a good copy of Mountain's Mississippi Queen amongst other lesser known tracks such as Pacific Gas And Electric's Are You Ready which, while predominantly an R&B track, comes crashing through the speakers with some of the most intense guitar lines you'll hear. If you remember the rock of the 70s or if you want a brief lesson of what REAL rock was like in the 70s, give this one a try.

No, I generally do not advertise things for free, but I rarely get so pleasantly surprised as I did when I found a compilation which just plain doesn't suck."
What a trip!!!

"man, when i first saw this little compilation i thought to myself and i quote "i've gotta have this!!!", this box set is very complete, it has groups that are known, and groups that i had never heard before (frank marino, lake) and believe me they rock!!!

so if you're looking for something different and refreshing, then don't hesitate and get this box set, it has a little bit of everything and the sound cuality is great!!!!

viva jibaro!!!!!"
