A 3CD set featuring 66 classic hits, from a wonderful time for Pop music, as the charts welcomed some new and exciting talent, whilst still finding space for the superstars of the previous decade. These three discs feature dozens of UK No. 1 hits, including chart toppers from Mungo Jerry (‘In the Summertime’), Tony Orlando & Dawn (‘Knock Three Times’), Rod Stewart (‘Maggie May’), Don McLean (‘Vincent’), and Middle of the Road (‘Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep’), plus big hits that topped the US chart for the Jackson 5 (‘I Want You Back’), America (‘A Horse With No Name’), and Charlie Rich (‘The Most Beautiful Girl’). ‘The Hits Album – The Early 70s’ brings you classic Rock from Free, Status Quo, and Thin Lizzy, the first stirrings of Disco from Barry White, George McRae, and The Three Degrees, and the introduction of Glam Rock from Sweet, Mud, and Wizzard. And we still found room for the unique and unforgettable talents of Carl Douglas, The Wombles, Clive Dunn, and Benny Hill. Get ready for ‘The Early 70s’ – three discs of Pop, Soul, Country and Rock chart gold!
