And The Beat Goes On (Dance Hits Of The 70's & 80's) - Various Artists

Advantages: Top 80,s artists
Disadvantages: double up of 1 artist

...This has to be the best 80,s collection of songs i have seen around. Forty tracks in this compelation and all hits from the artists . Alot of 80,s cd's that are around are full of one hit wonders which are good but this cd brings the best from the Artists of the time. From Queen to Bonnie tyler this is a must for any 80,s music fan. The cd has 2 hours and 30 minutes full of great tracks from great artists. It is a double cd and is black and white cover. There are tracks that you can dance too and tracks that are slow so a good mix but all you can sing at the top of your voice too ( as i have on many an occasion hee hee ) Track listing 1 Queen Kind of magic 2 Police Every breath you take 3 Alison moyet Only you 4 Blondie The tide is high 5 Madness My girl 6 UB...

...This one's got all the songs you'll recognize from any 70's or 80's night at your local club, from the too-slow-to-dance-to "Dancing Queen" to the epic "Waterloo." Gold includes most of Abba's hits, and will round out your need for Abba fully, unless you're a real die-hard and must have every album. Same beautiful harmonies, insipid lyrics and danceable beats that a fan from the 70's will remember fondly, or a new fan will enjoy anew.

Disadvantages: sad to some, but who cares

...-released by various artists and been big hits; Relight my Fire:Take That, Lady Marmalade:All Saints, More Than a Women: 911, OK many dodgy covers, but it has ensured that the tracks live on. I have to say that many of the bands/artistes on the CD I had never heard of, even though I class myself as a bit of a music anorak. Although I did recognise and like many of the tracks, so that must prove the power of many of these hits......? Be it disco classic or karaoke classic, most will know some of them! My personal favourites include the tracks I always request at parties as soon as the disco man plays just one 70's disco track..... le freak – standard wild dancing and arm flinging about boogie track boogie nights – groovy dance tune play that funky music – strut your stuff carwash – incorporates classy hand movements i will survive...
