Hits of the 70s

Annotation

See amazon reviews, these are junk covers by band soundalikes. As is usual with Madacy. Needs unlinking from the real recordings.

Individual barcodes:

CD 1: 628261254620
CD 2: 628261254729
CD 3: 628261254828


This whole thing is a mess. These are all covers, not originals as linked.
