Good on Time/Life for making these collections, bad on the sellers who don't list table of contents. For reference, here it is for this set:

R812-04 (Warner Special Products OPCD-2780) - The Singers and Songwriters Collection: 1976-1977 - Various Artists [2000] Disc 1: Still The One - Orleans/Hello Old Friend - Eric Clapton/Southern Nights - Glen Campbell/If You Leave Me Now - Chicago/Sara Smile - Daryl Hall And John Oates/Blue Bayou - Linda Ronstadt/You Are The Woman - Firefall/Welcome Back - John Sebastian/I'd Really Love To See You Tonight - England Dan And John Ford Coley/Don't Go Breaking My Heart - Elton John And Kiki Dee/Get Closer - Seals And Crofts/Dream Weaver - Gary Wright; Disc 2: Say You Love Me - Fleetwood Mac/Year Of The Cat - Al Stewart/On And On - Stephen Bishop/(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher And Higher - Rita Coolidge/Lonely Boy - Andrew Gold/We Just Disagree - Dave Mason/Fooled Around And Fell In Love - Elvin Bishop/Tracks Of My Tears - Linda Ronstadt/Right Time Of The Night - Jennifer Warnes/I'm In You - Peter Frampton/All By Myself - Eric Carmen/Lost Without Your Love - Bread

Once I realized that Time-Life's "Singers and Songwriters" series could have been called, "Soft Rock One-Hit Wonders of the 1970s," it was inevitable that I'd get these discs. These songs were the soundtrack of my youth, and if they are for you too, then I can't imagine a more cost-effective way to get them than this. The liner notes help contextualize the songs within the culture that birthed them.
