1987 - CL3SSIC TRACKS Vol1 (Remastered)

Hello and Welcome Back... Not a bad album this, Owned on Cassette.

Back around 1987, I brought this album on cassette from my local 'Caltex Service Station', only it had a different cover, Same songs.

The cover that i remember was Yellow with squiggle marks (think 'Slippery when Wet') sign.

Sadly, I cant find the Album cover i remember so will have to do with this one... Excellent, song selection.

Released on J&B Records  (also known as 'Solid Gold Hits')




This version is CD Quality, nearly all songs are from various CDs, Remastered / Auto-leveled so it sounds 'Mint'
The only difference will be some songs are 'Album' versions and not 'radio' versions. Radio versions were shorter to make them fit on the album.
Also Note, older albums such as this one has sometimes have Vinyl mastered singles to CD on rare occasions, It was how the record company's brought out some CDs.


Tracks to Ponder Over =
#05  Tommy Tutone - 867-5309 Jenny (how many times did you ring asking for 'Jenny'??)
#08  U. K. Squeeze - Cool For Cats (quirky song about our furry overlords, know what i mean??)
#17  Swanee - Temporary Heartache (stunning track with wicked 'Sax')
