Free Music Review: an album of hits--and misses
Hit: 4 Stars
Super Hits of the '70s: Have a Nice Day, Vol. 21 is yet another installment in this twenty-five CD series of very good tunes from the 1970s. The quality of the sound is excellent and there is a diversity of artists on this album.
Ram Jam's "Black Betty" has that great late `70s rockin' flavor to it and the arrangement uses electric guitars and the drums very well. The theme from Star Wars sounds as good as it ever did; I like the special effects for this musical arrangement and it made an excellent addition to the movie as well.
"Baby Come Back" by Player is a bit too syrupy for my tastes; but I give them credit for harmonizing very well. The drums work well; but they should have changed those lyrics somehow! LOL In addition, "Telephone Man" by Meri Wilson might have been replaced by another, better tune. "Telephone Man" comes off as a novelty piece rather than a true hit from the `70s.
On the other hand, Dan Hill's "Sometimes When We Touch" is a touching love ballad about a man's views on his one true love; and the musical arrangement lacks nothing--it's THAT good. Warren Zevon's "Werewolves Of London" is probably the best rockin' tune on this album--and just one listen proves why. Love how Warren sings this number; and the electric guitars are perfect!
"Goodbye Girl" is a tender ballad with a chorus that works beautifully to enhance the natural beauty of this number; and David Gates never misses a beat. "It's A Heartache" by Bonnie Tyler gives us a wonderful country flavored ballad and Bonnie's somewhat raspy voice works perfectly for this number. Bonnie sings "It's A Heartache" with all her heart and soul; and just one listen proves it.
"Kiss You All Over" by Exile has a terrific `70s flavor to it; and the album ends with Walter Egan performing "Magnet And Steel." I don't remember this ballad but it is strong and it makes a great ending track for this album.
Of course, Rhino disappoints me again with the uniform twelve tracks on this album. The entire series has just twelve tracks on each CD. They could have--and should have--added at least one more song. Oops!
Overall, this album has some good numbers and two or three duds. They should have added an extra track, too. It's great for the `70s diehard music fan; but for most people this will be a weaker installment in this CD series.
Three and one-half stars.
