Description:
Break out your polyester shirt and platform shoes and get ready to party! There was no escaping these 'outta sight' songs in the '70s--some of the most memorable live performances of the 'Me' generation. Far out, man! Songs: Eighteen (Alice Cooper), Horse with No Name (America), What Have They Done to My Song Ma (Melanie), China Grove (Doobie Brothers), Sara Smile (Hall & Oates), Year of the Cat (Al Stewart), Warm Love (Van Morrison), Nothing is Easy (Jethro Tull), Blitzkrieg Bop (Ramones), You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet (Bachman-Turner Overdrive), All Right Now (Free), The Cover of the 'Rolling Stone' (Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show), Brand New Key (Melanie), Come and Get It (Badfinger), Rockin' Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu (Johnny Rivers), Ventura Highway (America), Rich Girl (Hall & Oates), With You There to Help Me (Jethro Tull), It's a Heartache (Bonnie Tyler).

Amazon.com:
Culled from the video archive of Germany's popular MusikLaden TV show, this compilation of live performances offers the proverbial something for everyone, from the blue-eyed soul of Hall & Oates to the three-chord thrash of the Ramones. It's an incongruous mix, united only by the chart-rising popularity of each selection, spanning the 1970s and presented, with mixed results, in remastered Dolby 5.1 sound. The hilarious low point is Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show's drunken, unruly romp through 'The Cover of the Rolling Stone.' And while you're trying to reconcile such ethereal hit-makers as Melanie and Bonnie Tyler with more seasoned performers like Van Morrison and Jethro Tull, you can be grateful that these vintage clips, several including extended jams, have been so faithfully preserved. By the time the Ramones fittingly close the disc with 'Blitzkrieg Pop,' you'll be having a very nice day, indeed. --Jeff Shannon
