 I've been enjoying making Spotify playlists based on my old various artist compilation records.  I've posted a few here, should make it a sei-regular thing.  Let me know if you enjoy them, I'll do/post more.

Today's playlist is from a record called 20 Monster Hits, a 1972 double album from Columbia House.  


Not sure exactly when I purchased this one, I'd guess sometime in High School, but I'm not really sure.  It is certainly one of the older compilation records I own.

Here's the Spotify playlist, I was able to find all the songs:  VA - 20 Monster Hits



And the track list:

  • Looking Glass – Brandy
  • Redbone – The Witch Queen Of New Orleans
  • Blood, Sweat And Tears – You've Made Me So Very Happy
  • Argent – Liar
  • Hollies – He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother
  • Pacific Gas and Electric – Are You Ready?
  • Santana  – Evil Ways
  • Ten Years After – I'd Love To Change The World
  • Zombies – Time Of The Season
  • Byrds – Turn, Turn, Turn (To Everything There Is A Season)
  • Paul Revere And The Raiders – Indian Reservation 
  • Donovan – Atlantis
  • Dr Hook – Sylvia's Mother
  • Laura Nyro – Eli's Comin'
  • Big Brother And The Holding Company – Piece Of My Heart
  • Sweathog – Hallelujah
  • Chase – Get It On
  • Poco – Pickin' Up The Pieces
  • The Buckinghams – Mercy, Mercy, Mercy
  • Steve Stills / Al Kooper – Season Of The Witch
Pretty solid mix of hits and deep cuts, nice range of styles and moods.  And a couple of hidden gems.

ENJOY!
