| Description: | Hard To Find 45s On Cd - 18 : 70s Essentials is a compilation of pop tracks released as CD on 27 Oct 2017. - .. - 18 : 70S ESSENTIALSDo you ever feel like those standard hits-of-the-70s compilations don't quite capture the 1970s that you remember? Do you feel like many of your personal favorites, even when they were big hits, are rarely if ever included? That's why we created Hard To Find 45s On CD, Volume 18: 70s Essentials - to bring back all those seldom-heard classics that other collections seem to have forgotten. And we make them sound better than ever! These 21 chart hits include not only 13 Top Ten singles but also two MAJOR STEREO DEBUTS: "Venus" by Shocking Blue and "Gypsy Woman" by Brian Hyland! Hard to find? These Top 3 hits were impossible to find in STEREO until now!"Vol.18-70s Essentials (CD)" by V/A is a carefully curated audio journey through the defining sounds of the 1970s, presented on high-quality compact disc. This compilation brings together key tracks that capture the breadth of the decade: from soft rock and singer-songwriter ballads to soulful grooves, early disco flavours and polished pop productions. The selection focuses on songs that shaped radio playlists and home stereos of the era, making the CD ideal both for nostalgic listeners who grew up with these hits and for younger audiences discovering 70s music for the first time. Thoughtful sequencing ensures a natural flow between genres and moods, moving from laid-back, sun-drenched melodies to more energetic, danceable tracks, and then to emotional slow numbers that highlight the warmth and depth of 70s production aesthetics. As a mixed-artist release, the emphasis here is on variety and stylistic richness rather than on a single performer. The compilation showcases how the 1970s became a melting pot of rock, soul, pop and early dance music, offering a compact yet substantial overview of the decade's essential sounds. "Vol.18-70s Essentials (CD)" is thus a perfect soundtrack for long drives, themed parties, or relaxed evenings at home, bringing the golden age of analogue sound to the digital convenience of CD.
