Great sound, cheap price
This 2017 Demon/Sony Music European 5-disc box is not the strongest of the many 70sā box sets that are listed on Amazon (so 4 1/2 stars), but it is non-the-less filled w/a lot of good Brit-leaning music (especially the rock tracks). Disc 1, 68 minutes, is Brit-rock & glam; D2, 70 min., R&B & Disco; D#, 63 min., soft rock & R&B; D4, 66 min., R&B & Disco; D5, 70 min., is a mix of genres (w/6 tracks that are on other box sets). I am amazed at how good the R&B & disco stuff is now ā back in the 70s I hated it (but then again, I like a ton more stuff now in my late 60s). All tracks are original charting singles (but not all in the U.S.). Quality of sound is great (re-mastered??), & playback levels are quite even. There are a few minor song title glitches w/Windows Media Player. Song title/artist/composer/label/date are listed on each inside flap of the 5-fold cardboard case ā title & artist listed on back cover also. Each disc slides into separate open-at-each-end slots & are very hard to slide out ā I used a large eraser on the end of a pencil.

Love it!
An odd mix of songs I've heard a hundred times decades ago and a few I've never heard. Most of these tunes I've only heard through (now) antique radios so it's almost like hearing them for the first time. A really great deal for this price.

Great! All my favorite 70's hits!!
I love the music and memories they bring. If you have songs you listened to and enjoyed in the 70's, then you will love this CD too!

100 Hits of the 70's
great item, you must have been around in the 70's to appreciate it, a lot of these tunes were more popular in the UK I'm thinking.

Not very popular songs in the US.
I don't know what criteria they were using for selecting these songs, but it wasn't popularity on the radio in the 1970's in Chicago. I'm very selective about what tracks I upload to my devices. I did find about 30 tracks I sort-of liked on this. But I am guessing that these tracks were popular in London in the '70's, and not necessarily in the US. It is funk-heavy, with over half the tracks I had never heard before. Maybe it was just the white suburbia I grew up in. But I was born in the early '60's, and listened to a lot of radio in Chicago in the '70's. WLS. WCFL. WXRT. Most of these tracks were never played there. I'd say this was barely worth it for the price.
