Great Records of the Decade: 70's Hits Pop, Vol. 2

by Various Artists

Overview

Great Records of the Decade: '70s Hits -- Pop, Vol. 2 is a budget-line collection that features 12 hits from the '70s, including Andy Kim's "Rock Me Gently," the Knack's "My Sharona," the Hollies' "The Air That I Breathe," Glenn Campbell's "Rhinestone Cowboy," Sugarloaf's "Green Eyed Lady," Ike & Tina Turner's "Proud Mary," the Fortunes' "Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again" and Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose's "Treat Her Like a Lady." Although there's no particular rhyme or reason to why these particular songs were selected -- and the selection is fairly uneven -- the disc is an entertaining listen. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
