I used to think these were stupid but I wish I had them now, especially one with Seasons in the sun and, Billy don't be a hero. Does anyone here own any?

"Super Hits of the 70s" on Rhino Records is a 25-CD series of compilation albums that is chock full of songs from one-hit (and two or three-hit) wonder bands that was inspired by K-Tel Records releases.
Lace up your roller skates and take a look at the song lists on these.

That reminds me of all the Meco songs trying to cash in on box office hits.

I had a few years ago. Most seemed to be of slightly subpar sound quality, as compared to the original releases.
