MMMM: J-Tel Presents “Radio Days 3”! 20 Original Hits, 20 Original Stars!

I never bought any of those K-Tel albums that they would advertise on TV all the time. My friend Ben over at the Oddity Archive on YouTube features them from time to time. In a feat of engineering magic, K-Tel would cram 20 songs on an LP that might hold 14 comfortably and sell them for “7.99 for LP’s, 9.99 for cassette or 8-track.” Anyway, I started with “The Night Has A Thousand Eyes” and just let YouTube suggest the rest. In case it won’t play for you here, try the playlist on YouTube.

1. Bobby Vee, “The Night Has A Thousand Eyes”
2. Jimmy Clanton, “Venus In Blue Jeans”
3. Gene Pitney, “Only Love Can Break A Heart”
4. Terry Stafford, “Suspicion”
5. The Skyliners, “Since I Don’t Have You”
6. The Happenings, “See You In September”
