Do you ever feel like those standard hits-of-the-70s compilations don’t quite capture the 1970s that you remember? Do you feel like many of your personal favorites, even when they were big hits, are rarely if ever included? That’s why we created Hard To Find 45s On CD, Volume 18: 70s Essentials – to bring back all those seldom-heard classics that other collections seem to have forgotten. And we make them sound better than ever!

It’s been a little while since Eric Records’ acclaimed “Hard-To-Find 45s on CD” series visited the 1970s. And, we’ve never stretched into the ’80s! That makes Hard-To-Find 45s on CD Vol. 14: 70s & 80s Pop Classics a welcome addition to the family, as it celebrates the glittering decades that found popular music getting more popular – and unpredictable – than ever before. Hold on tight – or you might get whiplash as we survey nearly 20 years’ worth of pop rarities!

In honor of the 45th anniversary of the death of the King of Rock'n'Roll, a new edition of albums with only alternative tracks will be released in 2022. Directed by Jean-Marie Pouzenc, president of the fan club "Elvis My Happiness", this collection has been completely remastered and pressed on vinyl replica CD.

This album highlights the remarkable talents of Markolino, who wrote and arranged every selection. His expressive keyboard work serves as the driving force behind the orchestra, guiding dynamic arrangements that flow effortlessly and invite the listener into the music. This album delivers energy, groove, and artistry in every note.

Paul McCartney has today announced WINGS, a new Wings ‘best of’ that will be available across a number of formats including a McCartney and SDE-exclusive blu-ray audio with Dolby Atmos Mixes. Unlike the Wingspan compilation from 2001, this new collection sticks strictly to songs from Wings albums (and Wings non-album singles) and so doesn’t include any solo hits adjacent to this era (such as ‘Another Day’ or ‘Coming Up’) or anything from 1971’s Ram (credited to Paul and Linda McCartney), despite ‘Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey’ being a US No 1 hit single in September 1971.

First time ever on CD!Starting with "Valtakunta" (1968) and continuing with "Odysseus" (1969), "For Children" (1970), "The Original Sin" (1971), "Muusa Ja Ruusa" (1971), "Wahoo!" (1972), "3rd Version" (1973), "The Front Is Breaking" (1976), "Labyrinth" (1977) and finally "Live At The Belmont Jazz Club" (1977) Koivistoinen produced a body of work of amazing depth, beauty, sophistication and intellectual significance, which remains as a wonderful illustration of the Finnish and European Jazz heritage during that decade.However, by the end of the 1970s, the immense popularity, which European Jazz managed to kindle, was gradually losing its steam. Record labels, owned by international mogul corporations, lost interest in any kind of adventurous music, Jazz included, and the number of Jazz releases went down considerably, a situation which affected Finland as well.

For the 45th anniversary of the King's death, find "Elvis Sings The Mad Professor" with only alternate tracks. This album has been entirely remastered & proposed on CD vinyl replica. Completed with Ben Weisman titles missing from the vinyl LP of the same title released in 2021, and also with takes of different versions, like "Don't Leave Me Now" and "Steppin' Out of Line," this is a brand-new concept-album devoted to the composer who wrote more songs recorded by the King than any other songwriter! Ben Weisman actually wrote only 54 songs for Elvis. Nobody knows why, but "Party," "Rubberneckin'" and "There's So Much World to See" are still listed even though Weisman didn't write them.
