Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars I Lived This Era!.......2001-10-23

I bought this CD for really only one selection, Samantha Sang's "Emotion". When that song was released, everybody called her a "female Bee Gee". They do sing the back-up harmony and as far as I know, this was her only hit, but it's a classic. Every song brought back it's own memories. I was just out of high school and working in radio, so these songs took me down memory lane and it was a nice trip!

3 out of 5 stars Reminiscing in 1978.......2001-08-10

Rock On's 1978 collection starts off on the right foot with Nick Gilder's electric number one hit "Hot Child In The City". Sweet follows with their great "Love Is Like Oxygen" that has a wicked guitar riff. "Emotion" was written by the Bee Gees and fellow Aussie Samantha Sang does a by the numbers impression of the brothers Gibb. A Taste Of Honey's catchy "Boogie Oogie Oogie" is one of the best disco songs of the era. The Little River Band's easy going "Reminiscing" is a solid track as are Bob Welch's "Ebony Eyes" and Natalie Cole's "Our Love". The rest of the album doesn't offer much and offers one of the worst songs of the 70's, John Paul Young's insipid "Love Is In The Air".

4 out of 5 stars GREAT! GREAT! GREAT!.......2000-06-09

If you loved the songs from the 70s, BUY THIS!"Emotion" and "Bluer Than Blue" bring back memories. I recommend it to everyone.
