Legend has it that former Sex Pistols/PIL frontman John Lydon occupied himself on the road by recording and collecting hotel piano-bar renditions of Morris Albert's bathetic classic, "Feelings." But there's considerably more than snarky irony at work on this three-disc, 60-track anthology of romantic pop-chart fodder from the Classic Rock era. While Albert is joined here in the heart-on-their-sleeves sweepstakes by such daunting challengers as Debby Boone ("You Light Up My Life") and "Colour My Word"-era Chicago, this collection also deftly underscores the inclusive, remarkably eclectic sensibility that once powered Top 40 radio. In doing so, it also can't help but pay tribute to the smartly economic songwriting ethos that informed everything from the impossibly infectious pop of Captain & Tennille's "Love Will Keep Us Together" and "More Today Than Yesterday" by Spiral Staircase to the sex-symbol yin and yang of Engelbert Humperdinck and Tom Jones, the pan-American cool jazz of Sergio Mendes, the sublime soul of Dusty Springfield, and the dusky country-blues of Crystal Gayle. <I>--Jerry McCulley</I>

5 out of 5 stars What's on that fourth disc?.......2006-09-16

My copy of Straight From The Heart came with a fourth disc. The track listing wasn't listed on the back of the box with the track listings from the other three discs. There was, however, a small sticker on the front saying there was a fourth disc inside.

The mystery fourth disc features 10 tracks recorded live on May 13th and 14th, 2003 at the Benendum Center For The Performing Arts in Pittsburgh. The songs on the fourth disc are as follows:

1. The 5th Dimension - Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In
2. The 5th Dimension - (Last Night) I Didn't Get To Sleep At All
3. B.J. Thomas - Hooked On A Feeling
4. B.J. Thomas - Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head
5. B.J. Thomas - I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry
6. The Association - Cherish
7. Dionne Warwick - I'll Never Love This Way Again
8. Dionne Warwick - Do You Know The Way To San Jose?
9. Tony Orlando & Dawn - Candida/Knock Three Times
10. Debby Boone - You Light Up My Life

5 out of 5 stars Guilty, as Charged!.......2004-11-25

This boxed set contains one guilty pleasure after another! Even though many of the songs I had not heard for years/decades, I found I immediately recalled the words and was singing along, barely realizing it until I was in mid-song! Even though numerous "styles" of music are included, this is pop, pop and more pop. If you are like myself, and were a teenager in the Seventies, most of these songs will bring back many memories of people, places and events which had been hiding in the far corners of your memory...waiting for these songs to set them free! This three-cd package is guaranteed to supply you with many hours of musical pleasure.
