4.0 out of 5 stars A Lot of Repeats - A Few Rare Gems, March 16, 2005

The previous reviewer complained that this CD contained nothing from Kiss and only one Parliament song. I assume this was done because the CD concentrates on the Disco/R&B influenced tunes of the late 70's. I think a Kiss tune would sound completely out of place here, except for possibly "I Was Made for Loving You", which was there foray into the disco/rock music of 1979.

As a huge Donna Summer fan, I already own her songs represented here on umpteen Greatest Hits collections. Same thing with the Village People tunes. What I truly enjoy about this CD are the rare tunes: "Star Wars Theme" by Meco; "Give Up the Funk" by Parliament; "Chase" by Giorgio Moroder; "Music, Harmony & Rhythm" by Brooklyn Dreams; and my favorite track on the CD "Yes, I'm Ready" by Teri DeSario with KC.

The recordings here are all orginal recordings. The liner notes are decent. There is also a "Casablanca Records Story" Box Set which is also good, but it contains a lot more obscure tunes. For the casual listener who wants the big Disco/R&B hits put out by Casabalanca in the late 70's early 80's, this is the CD for you.

A fun,fun,fun album with the feel-good uplifting beats of my generation. I found my The delivery was fast and executed with perfection.

I owned this CD for many years and somehow,it disappeared. So I was delighted to find that I could still purchase it thru Amazon.com. I've played it many time since I received it and am enjoying it thoroughly. Thanks for your help.
