Following the success of his 4CD set 'Underrated Cuts from a Misunderstood Decade', Edsel is proud to announce a new release. Here David explains his thoughts when putting this 73-track compilation together, which he has annotated in the booklet, track by track: 'The 70s wasn't simply the most action-packed decade in the history of recorded music. It was also the final decade before we succumbed to the curse of genres. Because the four CDs inside have been programmed thematically for your listening pleasure, we have given them names which they didn't have at the time. 'Re-make/Re-model' features cult heroes making twisted sense of tunes from more innocent times. 'Skinny Tie Music' showcases the slinky pop purveyed by the acts who rolled back the cuffs of their jackets. 'Americana' spotlights the sons and daughters of the republic singing of their homeland. 'Basing Street Blues' is named for the home of Island Records, most charismatic of the UK's independent record labels. There's plenty of things about the 70s we wouldn't have back - inflation, smoke-filled rooms, fizzy keg for a start - but the music has never been bettered. As you'll hear.
