I miss those K-Tel albums. I just plain miss vinyl.
 It was cool when you had a whole variety of songs to choose from to warm up a party.

And now you have to buy a $500 iPod, do the work yourself and buy all the accessories to get anything similar.
 Yeah, those good old K-Tel's!  I had a few during the early 70s. Probably still could find them somewhere along with my "Donny" and "Osmonds Live" albums!

I inherited a number of K-Tel records when my older sister moved out of the house in 1984, I do remember "Hit Explosion" with Mickey, Vacation (Go-Go's), Gloria (Laura Branigan) and Steppin' Out (Joe Jackson) on it.
K-Tel was the "Now" of the 70's and 80's. |

I think they were based in Winnipeg Manitoba and went under in the early 80's.... http://www.popcultmag.com/passingfan...ktel/ktel.html Mine was so old that I remember it had "Crimson and Clover" by Tommy James and the Shondells on it!
