In 1977, robots were all the rage. After all, the most popular movie of the year introduced the world to two of the most famous robots of all time: R2-D2 and C3PO. It would only make sense that K-Tel would cash in by putting the previous most famous robot on the cover of it's new compilation album, Music Machine. That robot is, of course, "Robby" from Forbidden Planet and Lost in Space. Here, he dances to the various hits of 1977 in the commercial aired for the album:
The album came with two posters as well: one of Andy Gibb and the other of K.C. from K.C. and the Sunshine Band.
Adventures in Vinyl can be heard on Saturday morning 11 am (CT), Sunday at 4 pm (CT), Tuesday 1 pm (CT), Wednesday 2 am (CT) and Thursday 10 am (CT).
This may be the last chance to hear Adventures in Vinyl. We have been on the air for a year and our subscription on Live365 will run out February 3. We are not sure we will be continuing the station. If you've been listening for awhile, thank you.
I have the album. looks really nice and also has both the posters in extremely good condition. could you please tell me how much they are worth?
ReplyDeleteNot much, even with the posters. I recently bought a mint version, with the two posters, for $10 on ebay.
ReplyDeleteA nostalgic trip through classic tunes may be found in Music Machine: A 1977 K-Tel Classic. Whether it is disco or rock, this CD perfectly encapsulates a certain period. Speaking of classics, a lot of students enjoy listening to music while they study because it makes it easier for them to compose their personal statements and eliminates the need for personal statement writing help.
