ringtone88.com stars" border="0"> Great CD.......2002-11-03

I got this cd for the simple fact that it has "Vehicle" by the Ides of March. I thought the people at billboard were very wise in making the decision to add that song to this series. Other cool songs included are "The Rapper" and "Green Eyed Lady."

5 out of 5 stars Recalling what was on the radio in the year 1970.......2001-12-25

Do not be fooled into thinking that the ten songs collected on any particular album in the Billboard Top Rock'N'Roll Hits series represent the top 10 singles from that year or even that they are even all #1 hits. Still, if you were tuned to the radio in 1970 you will recognize every single track in this collection. By rule of thumb with such hit albums is whether or not they add five or more new songs to my music collection. I only have three of these already on CD ("Mama Told Me (Not To Come)," "I Think I Love You" and "I Want Your Back"--I know, pretty embarrassing), and of the seven other tracks there is not one of them that I do not mind listening to, taking me back to the year 1970 when we moved from Japan to New Mexico and I started high school. The only complaint would be that there are only 10 songs, but clearly my criteria has been met. "War" and "Spirit in the Sky" are the most worthy additions, and I think I have a 45 of "Venus" some where around here. I just do not have a record player anymore. Do the math yourself, and if you also come up with five songs you would like to have, pick this puppy up. Hippo Holidays, America.

5 out of 5 stars High School Days Revisited.......2000-01-22

1970, the anticipation for me of what the next four years of high school would be like. These songs definitely bring me back without a doubt, the definition of what top 40 AM radio was like. Every song on this CD is great, no fillers here, the only thing I would change about it would be to put the extended version of "Green-Eyed Lady" by Sugarloaf on it. Perfect listening.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars This is a KILLER collection.......2006-11-10

When you listen to this, you cannot help but say to yourself "how incredible the talent roster was for this record label". Not only did you have this very special array of vocalists but, for the most part, it was the same house band playing on all of these memorable songs.

Stax will always have their nemesis, Motown, but they should not be considered competitors. Both labels were great yet they were apples and oranges, completely different. Motown was pretty and melodic while Stax was funky and dirty. Stax also had a much more muscular sound, musically, so their house musicians got a lot more accolades. I enjoy Motown but I love Stax!

There is no need to talk about song highlights since these are all classic hits. The nice thing here is that Stax gave you variety. You have funk, you have duets, you have love gone bad, you have man hating female vocalists, you have bluesman, you have thumping bass and greasy guitar, you have killer horn sections, you got Jean Knight singing "Mr Big Shot"...this has everything...pretty, hard, loud, soft etc.

For the Stax fanatic, you will know all the songs but most people are not fanatics they are simply just loooking for a great compilation. If that is you, you will say to yourself "I did not know all of these great artists and songs came from the same label".

This cd works on many levels. It is a great compilation of classic soul songs, it satisfies the hard core collector who wants all of these tunes, it operates as a GREAT party cd/driving cd and lastly, it is a piece of history that showcases how the South interpreted soul.

If you like this then there is a part II with slightly more obscure tunes, a lot funkier and bluesier, yet just as satisfying.

DO NOT BE FOOLISH, BUY THIS!

5 out of 5 stars Keep your Motown, I'll take Stax.......2005-10-29

When all my friends were digging Motown I was digging Otis and Johnny and Sam and Dave and Eddie and Carla and so on and so on.
Motown is good. It's black folks making music for white folks, but Stax was black folks and white folks making music for folks who like their R&B stripped down and basic and raw. There never was and never will be a singer better than Otis Redding. There will never be a back up band better than Booker T and the MGs or the Bar Kays.
Stax (an amalgam of Stewart and Axton the founders) and the affiliated Volt label put out the best ever music. It stands the test of time. It was a moment in time that was brief but golden. This album is just a sample but if it peeks your interest, and if you love soul music, it will, then go from here and appreciate Otis Redding and Johnnie Taylor and Eddie Floyd and all the great talents that passed through the Stax/Volt studios and came under the guiding inflence of the legendary Steve Cropper and company.

5 out of 5 stars Funky R&B @ it's best.......2003-12-20

I love R&B music of the 60s and 70s. Although I live in Memphis, I have always enjoyed Motown music the most and never bothered to study the Stax music made right here in Memphis. Wow! The body of Stax records is incredible and it's interesting to listen to this music and compare to Motown's music. The sounds are both great but very different. I strongly recommend this album and encourage you to listen and compare to the writers and musicians from Motown. It competes very favorably.

5 out of 5 stars GOLDEN YEARS OF SOUL.......2003-04-22

Immerse yourself in the gorgeous Stax sound from the golden years of soul! Every one of these 20 tracks is a gem, from Sam And Dave's opening number to Isaac Hayes' shimmering Theme from Shaft (1971). Eddie Floyd's Knock On Wood has been much covered, for example by Amii Stewart in the late 1970s, while Mr Big Stuff, also from 1971, is the only track of Jean Knight's besides her later 1980s hit My Toot Toot that I'm familiar with. And what a voice and attitude she has! The instrumental hit Green Onions is well known to all, as is Otis Redding's classic Dock Of The Bay. Little known classics include Mel & Tim's Starting All Over Again and In The Rain by The Dramatics, the latter with thunder and rain sound effects. My favourites on this essential album include The Staple Singers' addictive Respect Yourself and I'll Take You There, a delicious marriage of gospel and soul. The Stax sound was a bit more rootsy than Motown, but the melodies were just as beautiful. This precious music just improves with age.

5 out of 5 stars Love (of Soul) Keeps Them Together.......2000-02-24

The Stax/Volt story has two acts: the first, when the label was run by Atlantic Records and featured the royalty of Southern soul (Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, Carla Thomas, Booker T. & The MGs) and act two, when Atlantic took its share of the label's masters and, after a short period of continued success, the label faded away.

4 out of 5 stars Nice blend.......2003-08-13

How tacky are some of these songs? Well, I can remember hearing these songs being played at SEARS while shopping for clothes (no choice in those days. I lived in the suburbs and didn't yet have a car). The direct memories of denim jackets with sequins, and shorty tops - with sequins, fill me with shivers both warm (memories) and cold (fashion hell), as I listen to these songs. But not all of 'em are tacky. There are a couple of juicy goodies that actually broke the ground of riskless AM radio. "You Sexy Thing" was a hot crossover tune that got white people dancing (one could even say it was one of the first preludes to disco), and that title garnished many a sequined shorty top. Even many a pair of ..... (the seventies were SO fabulously sleazy!). And "Eighteen With A Bullet", despite it's slight '50sish Frankie Lymon feel, had a tight euphoric bite to it, which was a fresh charge in let's face it, what was a pretty stale, generic musical wasteland by the mid-seventies. Even Bay City Roller-mania was a delightful change, despite the fact that their fans all looked like Catholic school rejects (I guess that's where they got all that plaid). Come to think of it, maybe sequined shorty tops weren't so bad after all! Have fun -
and don't forget to have a nice day! :)

5 out of 5 stars Great Songs and Great Memories!.......2002-01-15

Oh great songs and great memories when I was only in elementary school and listening to these hits on the old KJR AM in Seattle! Great collections from Rhino!

3 out of 5 stars Gotta Love Rhino!.......2001-08-13

As a fan of Rhino Records for many years I was elated when they started this series years ago. This was the 70s collection with songs that you couldn't find on any other compilation - the quirky ones that you remember hearing on AM radio, had the 45 but wasn't on the "most popular" list. For example: Sky High by Jigsaw (which I remember hearing in 1975) and Convoy by C. W. McCall (which I had the 45 rpm of). This isn't my favorite volume of the series but nonetheless, a volume that should be in your collection.

Please note! The cassette versions are different from the CD release. There are "Bonus Tracks" on the CD that are not found on the cassette.

1 out of 5 stars SONGS MISSING FROM CASSETTE THAT ARE SHOWN ON LISTING.......2001-05-19

    Album Description

    Rhino's Have A Nice Day series takes you back to the days of black light posters, eight-track tapes, earth shoes, and bell-bottoms, gathering together the lone hits by those "one-or-two-shot" wonders of the '70s-with many tracks appearing on CD for the first time!

    Customer Reviews:

    4 out of 5 stars Have a nice day! Listen to this even if it's not the best compilation..........2006-09-08

    This CD offers ten of the top hits on Billboard's rock and roll chart in 1976. It was a great year for our country with our bicentennial; and the music on this CD really helps to bring back fond memories.

    The songs are good and the quality of the sound is excellent. I especially liked "Dream Weaver" by Gary Wright; "Love Machine - Pt. 1" by The Miracles; "Let Your Love Flow" by The Bellamy Brothers; "Play That Funky Music" by Wild Cherry; "Fooled Around And Fell In Love" by Elvin Bishop and " All By Myself" by Eric Carmen.

    Liner notes include great pictures of the performers--awesome!

    I have to make this a four star review because there is no real compelling reason why Rhino Records needed to limit this CD series to ten songs on each CD. The CD weighs in at a little over 35 minutes--why not add a couple more songs? I was disappointed.

    Overall, it's a good CD to bring back memories of 1976 but it's far from being comprehensive, naturally, since it's only one CD. The sound is good and I recommend this for rock and roll fans of '70s music. Enjoy! SMILES

    3 out of 5 stars Not bad at all, but not the best............2003-04-05

    Listening to this album recently, after it collecting dust on my shelf of c.d.s', I realized this isn't the best compliation album I own. Yet, I had fun singing along with and grooving in the driver's seat to the few songs that I actually like on it.
    "Don't go Breaking My heart" -- Now there is a great 70's song from the musical genuis of Elton John along with that cutesy overall wearing chick, KiKi Dee(whatever happened to her?) I know all the words to this upbeat tune.
    "Dream Weaver" -- All I can think of when I hear this song is the movie, "Wayne's World". A classic smooth one hit wonder.
    "Love Machine" -- In all honesty, this song could've been left off this record. I think it is a lousy song, and I am sure there are other songs out there from the year that could've put on here.
    "Let your Love Flow" --Another one I know all the words, too. This was played a lot on the radio back in the mid to late 70's. It's a country rock ditty I love hearing again.
    "Play that Funky music" -- A DEEMED CLASSIC ...One of the best songs I have ever danced to.It's funky, it's cool, it's very hip to this day.
    "Saturday Night" -- I was never a fan of the Bay City Rollers, but I always loved this song, especially after it was used in a Mike Myers' movie, "So I married an ax murderer". Very fun, and again, another one I know by heart.
    "Fooled around and fell in love" -- I'm not crazy about this song. There is nothing special about as far as I am concerned.
    "I really want to see you tonight" -- Reminds me of my past boyfriends. Again, I know this word for word..I don't know why. I was 7 in 1976, but as the 70's progressed this was one song I still heard a lot and well, i didn't get it, but I liked it anyway.
    "All By Myself" -- I never really liked this song, but when Nicole Kidman plays it at the funeral of her husband that she's just had murdered in "TOO DIE FOR", I couldn't help but laugh. That is all I can identify this with now.
    "Theme from SWAT" __ HUH? What is this? I never listen to this, I always fast forward back to Elton John & Kiki Dee.

    This is a totally mixed bag as far as compliations go. I have very few of Billboards albums in my album collection. I highly recommend the year 1979 over this one as I loved every song on that. I like most of the songs on this record, but having to skip anything to get on the next best thing doesn't make me want to recommend it.

    Listening to this hits collection reminded me that in 1976 I was NOT listening to AM radio, because this is the first Billboard album I have come across where I have only ONE of the songs ("Don't Go Breaking My Heart," courtesy of an Elton John Greatest Hits album) in my CD collection (over 1,200 albums and growing). I think I was into Progressive Rock (Yes, Jethro Tull, Strawbs) in 1976, but that does not mean I do not remember hearing every one of these songs way back when. This album certainly serves up a diverse collection of songs, usually one of the strengths of the Billboard series, with a little bit of pop (Elton John/Kiki Dee and Eric Carmen), a dash of puppy rock (Bay City Rollers), and some serious R&B (Wild Cherry and The Bellamy Brothers). I always liked the cosmic organ on Gary Wright's "Dream Weaver" and the profound sentiments of Elvin Bishop's "Fooled Around And Fell In Love." Just do not ask me to explain the national fascination with "The Theme from 'S.W.A.T.'" Bottom line: this album meets my criteria, adding five new songs to my music collection, although admittedly some of them are out of a sense of nostalgia for my youth than because they are truly great songs that have stood the test of time. This album grades out at a 4.5 in Billboard Series and gets rounded up because it personally meets my criteria for hit collections.

    4 out of 5 stars These awesome songs bring back fond memories; but sheesh, they could have picked more than just ten songs !!!.......2006-08-26

    This CD is an excellent, although somewhat limited, selection of great rock and roll hits from 1974. The CD starts off strong--real strong--with a live recording of Elton John slammin' out "Bennie And The Jets." Awesome! The crowd is clapping along and just loving it. This electric start whets your appetite for more--and that's exactly what you're going to get!

    The CD continues with the next track, "The Loco-Motion." I remember when this came out. It sounded so much to me at the time like a song from the `50s. And, in a way, it was. But the song had been revved up for that `70s rock and roll flavor. We played this 45 rpm record so much that we wore the grooves completely off the vinyl! SMILES Billy Preston also contributes "Nothing From Nothing," which has a slightly jaded but truthful message about a romance that just can't be.

    Other great songs on the CD include "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd; "Dancing Machine" by the Jackson 5; "The Joker" by The Steve Miller Band and "Come And Get Your Love" by Redbone. NOW THAT'S GREAT ROCK MUSIC!

    The liner notes boast great photos of most of the groups on this CD and a few notes about what was making the news in 1974.

    One true negative, however, is that the CD series of "Billboard Hits" by Rhino Records limits each CD to ten songs each. Exactly ten songs. Not nine, not eleven, not twelve either. I was disappointed by this. The CD only weighs in at 34 minutes so they had room for at least two more songs--and why not three more songs? This is not a complete selection. Therefore, it's either a great starter CD for people who want to get more familiar with `70s music or an inexpensive retrospective of the songs of 1974.

    Nevertheless, this IS a fun CD and very entertaining. The quality of the sound is excellent--even on my PC's CD drive! I highly recommend this CD for people who remember the `70s fondly with its' distinctive great rock and roll sound.

    5 out of 5 stars Great Songs, Great Memories.......2002-09-29

    This was the year that I graduated from high school and each time that I hear one of these songs it takes me back to some great memories of that special time. To those who associate songs with particular events in their past, this one will do the job quite well. I doubt if you will be disappointed and it will be a great addition to any CD collection.

    4 out of 5 stars Reread the CD Title.......1998-07-01

    Not all of these hits are "rock and roll," as the title of this collection states. Still, all of these tracks appear in their original forms with good sound quality.

    5 out of 5 stars The Best Year for Disco Music.......2005-03-11

    I own three CD's in this series by Rhino (the other 2 being 1976 and 1977 - see my reviews), but this one is clearly the best. 1979 was the year disco music peaked. There was disco music after 1979, but they just stopped calling it disco because of the negative connotation. That year saw lots of non-disco artists jump on the disco band wagon including Rod Stewart (Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?), Paul McCartney (Goodnight Tonight), Blondie (Heart of Glass), and Barbra Streisand (The Main Event/Fight). Here is my track by track review of this CD:

    1. Born to be Alive by Patrick Hernandez: An infectious rock/disco song that is great to dance to. One of my all-time favourites and a Pop hit (#16) as well. Also, Madonna got her start as a dancer for him.

    2. Contact by Edwin Starr: This song did not do as well on the Pop chart as it should have, reaching only #65. A great funk/disco number.

    3. Come to Me by France Joli: Although she had lots of dance hits and international hits, this was her only song to crossover and have Pop succes (#15). I still love this song even though it is almost 26 years old.

    4. Ring my Bell by Anita Ward: This song has been sampled many times by rappers over the years (Marky Mark, Will Smith, etc). Disco was much maligned, but it is funny how often that driving disco beat has been recycled over the years. Very sexy song and a #1 Pop hit as well.

    5. Take me Home by Cher: Cher was another artist to jump on the disco band wagon with this song. However, unlike some of the other artists who "went disco", Cher had a little bit more credibility in stepping into the genre as she was a regular at Studio 54 during that period. A great song and her last big Pop hit (#8) until late '87/early '88 when she resurfaced as the queen of the power ballad.

    6. I've Got the Next Dance by Deniece Williams: Not one of Deniece's strongest records. This song only went to #73 on the Pop chart, and I think it is because even disco music at the time was constantly changing and this tune seems more like something from 1976 or 1977 as opposed to the more driving beats of 1979.

    7. No One Gets the Prize/The Boss by Diana Ross: This mix presented here is great. Although I remember only hearing "The Boss" part on Top 40 radio at the time, hearing the 2 songs together sounds even better. A club classic.

    8. Move on Up/Up Up Up by Destination: A fairly anonymous disco song that I had never heard until I bought this CD.

    9. Hot Stuff/Bad Girls by Donna Summer: I owned this 12" back in the summer of 1979 and played it over and over. I have many Donna Summer CD's, but I am so glad Rhino provided this 12" mix of the 2 songs as I used to love playing them back during that magical Summer of '79. And it truly was the "Summer of '79" as Donna ruled the charts in 1979 with 5 Top 10 Pop Hits and 3 #1 Double Albums (the only artist to ever achieve 3 #1 double albums in one chart year).

    10. I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor: A great, dramatic disco song and a #1 Pop hit as well. This possibly has been a little overplayed over the years, but I still love it.

    All of the songs on this CD are #1 Disco hits except "Take me Arnold Newman

    4 out of 5 stars I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will..........2006-10-20

    Rhino Records released yet another great CD of rock and roll hits from the year 1973. This album proves that it was a very good year indeed!

    This CD boasts two phenomenal hits from Sir Elton John: "Crocodile Rock" and "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road." These songs are very strong with catchy melodies; the songs also address the universal theme of that awful pain when romance ends. Jim Croce rocks hard with his classic "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown." The Edgar Winter Group contributes "Frankenstein" which rocks very strong; this is the only instrumental on this album and it's a great choice.

    Other songs on this album have a slower, more soulful feel to them: "Let's Get It On" by Marvin Gaye and "Midnight Train To Georgia" by Gladys Knight & The Pips are beautiful ballads. There's a country feel to the rock hit "Ramblin Man" by The Allman Brothers Band which adds some diversity to the track selection.

    The quality of the sound is excellent and the liner notes offer some great black and white photos of most of the artists who perform on this CD. The liner notes indicate the month during which the song was big and this is a nice plus.

    Unfortunate news: I can only give this CD four stars. True, it brings back fond memories of when I was younger and life was simpler. True, the songs are great and the quality of the sound is excellent. Rhino Records makes a big mistake, sadly, when they decide to limit all the CDs in this series to exactly ten songs each. Not eleven, not eight, not twelve--ten songs and exactly ten songs. The CD weighs in at roughly 33 minutes so there's clearly more room for at least two or three more songs on this CD. I was disappointed.

    Overall, however, this is still a great CD to bring back memories of rock in the early 1970s. It's also a great CD to choose if you want an affordable CD to see if you would like this kind of music. I highly recommend this for fans of classic rock and roll; fans of music from the early 1970s and for people who want to experience the amazing rock and roll music of the early 1970s for the very first time. SMILE

    5 out of 5 stars BillBoard Hits.......2005-12-03

    I thought that these were all great songs of 1973, they chose the perfect hits and put them all on one CD. Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and Crocodile Rock are 2 of my favorite hits and they are both on this one CD. All I can say is this is a GREAT CD.

    4 out of 5 stars Whaddya Gonna Do?.......2005-02-18

    Rock and Roll is often a catchall phrase. Would it include "Show and Tell" by Al Wilson? John Lennon's "Mind Games"? Skylark's "Wildflower"? McCartney and Wings' "My Love"? Kris Kristofferson's "Why Me?"? How about "You're So Vain" by Carly Simon? Thise are just a few of the top selling songs of 1973. Why is Billboard so niggardly with their cheap 10-only selections? Look around before you buy. If ten's enough for the price for you, then you have ten good ones here.

    5 out of 5 stars The Soundtrack Of My Life.......1998-12-08

    These songs all bring back memories of my senior year in high school. Back then, some songs on the radio were novelty songs or pure crap, but this collection only skims the surface of some of the better music of that era. Whether rock,soul or r&b, you had your pick on the radio and all on one station! Great fun and better than most of the stuff out nowadays.

    3 out of 5 stars Original Pop Hits.......1998-07-01

    Beware an edited version of the #1 hit "Frankenstein." Most serious pop music collectors may already own these tracks on better collections. All originals.
