Driving on the freeway, singing at the TOP of my lungs, to song that were made 10 years before I was born, THIS is the CD I want in my car! It has song that make you feel sexy- "AMERICAN WOMAN", songs that make you want to dance, like "VENUS"...and songs that just stick to your soul....thanks to Melanie, and her "LAY DOWN (candles in the rain)".It is one of my favorite of the various, ARTIST COMPILATION type cd's that I own. Beautiful Blend of music. If you dont believe me, just listen to the audio clips..I mean, after all, thats what made me run down to the WHEREHOUSE and buy this cd!

I was 10 in 1970, and I remember each one of this hits as if it were yesterday! These tunes are still surprisingly fresh (there also seemed to be more VARIETY in pop hits then than now!). B.J. claims "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head" Freda Payne sings her unforgettable "Band of Gold", ABC is taught by the Jackson 5 & Shocking Blue do the catchy "Venus" while David Cassidy pleads "I Think I Love You" and Smokey sings "Tears of a Clown". It's a truly fun little tunefest from 30 (!) years ago!
