Various Artists - Hits Album: The Later 70s / Various - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

3CD set featuring 63 classic hits from an extraordinary time for Pop music, with the charts a melting pot that saw Disco stars from the US competing with emerging homegrown Punk and New Wave talent, groups who had outlived the Glam Rock trend of the early '70s, Soul ballads, exciting Rock (some hard, some soft), and some glimpses of what the next decade might hold. These three discs include the UK No. 1 hits from 10cc ('Dreadlock Holiday'), Hot Chocolate ('So You Win Again'), The Floaters ('Float On'), Baccara ('Yes Sir, I Can Boogie'), The Boomtown Rats ('Rat Trap'), and The Buggles ('Video Killed the Radio Star'). It also features big hits that topped the US chart for Commodores ('Three Times a Lady'), The Four Seasons ('December, 1963 (Oh What A Night!')), and Chic ('Le Freak'). 'The Hits Album - Later 70s' brings you classic Rock from Status Quo, the Electric Light Orchestra, and Rainbow, dancefloor fillers from Sister Sledge, and Earth, Wind & Fire, and timeless anthems from The Buggles, and Gloria Gaynor.
