We were just going through some old vinyls of my in laws and found a K-Tel ‘classic’ best of the 50s compilation. I recognised only one song on it!

Lol K Tel

Lol K Tel

It brings back memories of those horrible ads for K Tel records in the 70s and 80s.

One of my school mates parents owned one and we used to laugh at how the records would get stuck at a certain point and not flip forward.

Yes and those K Tel records at the time used to edit a lot of the songs so they could squeeze more onto the albums.
Had to laugh as a few of the songs advertised are on my IPOD but i can assure you Welcome Back and Disco Duck are not on my IPOD .

I've never seen either of them before. But I do remember all the K Tel records of course.

Or even have an entire verse missing.

Yes. I’m not sure if it was a K Tel record or not, but I had an early 80s compilation on vinyl as a teen (still have it actually) which included the Fischer Z song So Long. I went a whole decade or so thinking the song only had 2 verses because the third verse was completely chopped from the recording. When I first heard the third verse in my early 20s I was totally taken aback.
