Anybody besides me old enough to remember K-Tel Records?Posted by Slippy

My dad got me this one when I was 7. It was literally the moment I began to think about music.
Imagine Donny Osmond and Clapton being back to back on the same album. Mind boggling.

Do you remember when they sold albums of songs not done by the original artist?

Yes. My dad said they named the cover group "The Original Artists" to get away with the scam. Likely an urban legend, but funny.

Rick Springfield cracking the K-Tel lineup more than a decade before Jessie's Girl.

Yes, same era as this one. I don’t ever remember buying one, though.
