CD1 opens with two of the greatest rock \u0026amp; pop groups of all time: kicking off with Queen, and the timeless 'Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy', followed by Electric Light Orchestra's 'Turn To Stone'. Donna Summer's 'Theme From The Deep (Down Deep Inside)' was a Top 5 smash and a true gem, and Boney M.'s 'Sunny' offers a timeless disco cover. Next comes pop classics from David Parton, covering Stevie Wonder's 'Isn't She Lovely', and Leo Sayer with 'How Much Love', alongside Bryan Ferry's top 15 hit 'Tokyo Joe'. Lesser compiled tracks from Elton John with 'Crazy Water', and Carole Bayer Sager with 'I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love', are joined by big hits from Elkie Brooks, Smokie and Showaddywaddy, plus the theme from the smash hit TV show 'Happy Days'. The first disc concludes with a run of superb soul including from Billy Paul, Barry White, Rose Royce and George Benson with his original version of 'The Greatest Love Of All'. CD2 begins with a stellar run of punk and new wave. Iggy Pop's defining 'Lust For Life' opens, followed by The Jam's debut 'In The City' and The Clash's anthemic 'Complete Control'. The Stranglers bring 'Something Better Change', and The Boomtown Rats' with 'Mary Of The 4th Form', while Blondie's 'Rip Her To Shreds' continues the band's signature mix of genres. Jonathan Richman \u0026amp; The Modern Lovers scored a big hit with 'Egyptian Reggae' ahead of legends Elvis Costello, and Elvis Presley. Rock from Steve Gibbons Band, Status Quo and Thin Lizzy with 'Don't Believe A Word' is up next, whilst the disc slows to it's close with hit country tracks from Pussycat, Glen Campbell and Linda Ronstadt's 'Blue Bayou'. CD3 takes us to the heart of the dancefloor with a heady mix of disco and soul opening with Donna Summer and Shalamar both in retro mode with 'I Remember Yesterday', and 'Uptown Festival'. Diana Ross brings 'Gettin' Ready For Love', while Harold Melvin \u0026amp; The Blue Notes' 'Don't Leave Me This Way' hit the Top 5 and features the sublime vocals of Teddy Pendergrass.

Easy pop from Andrew Lloyd Webber \u0026amp; Barbara Dickson from 'Evita', and Mary Mason, The Dooleys and Brotherhood Of Man all feature ahead of the final Top 20 hit for Bay City Rollers and the lead singer of Fox, Noosha, with her solo hit 'Georgina Bailey' before signing off with 'It's My Life', the seventh Top 20 hit for Smokie\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eQueen - Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Electric Light Orchestra - Turn to Stone\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Donna Summer - Theme from the Deep (Down Deep Inside)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Boney M. - Sunny\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e David Parton - Isn't She Lovely\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Leo Sayer - How Much Love\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Bryan Ferry - Tokyo Joe\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Boz Scaggs - What Can I Say\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Paul McCartney - Maybe I'm Amazed\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Elton John - Crazy Water\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Carole Bayer Sager - I'd Rather Leave While I'm in Love\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Elkie Brooks - Sunshine After the Rain\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Smokie - Needles and Pins\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Showaddywaddy - When\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Pratt ;
