just found this site. Nice job. This one brings back some memories. Thanks for all you do to share the music. If possible I would love to also be able to view "And it dont stop" blog again. Last I visited it had gone private. If it's not possible I understand. Best wishes

I had that first one and would put the poster that came with it up and roll up the rug in my parents livingroom and fail to windmill over and over again. That hurt a lot.

K-Tel used to be known as the cheesy compilation label. YOu would always see their commercials late at night in the wee hours of the morning. Funny how looking back 20 years, we see they managed to snag some gems.

I am ready to get a piece of cardboard and do some windmills! This brings me back. Too many good memories. Thank you again.

Peace
