How many of these damn things did K-Tel produce?! The only one of these I owned is The Rock Album. I also remember Powerhouse, Wings Of Sound, Southern Fried Rock, Disco Eclipse, etc, etc ad nauseum. They were pressed on vinyl that could not have weighed more than 80 grams. I'm impressed, however, that they included Focus's 'Hocus Pocus' on one of their compilations. That was like including Sonic Youth or Tarantel on a modern-day equivalent!

Hi :)
Yes there is a flute in Hocus Pocus. Yes, all the songs have been released on various CD's. Hocus Pocus for example, can be found on Volume 23 of Super Hits Of The 70's: Have a Nice Day released on Rhino Records.

The song is "Hocus Pocus" by the dutch band Focus.

I still have this in my library....don't play it but I still have it...????

I still have Fantastic, Music Express, Block Buster, Right On!, Mindbender, and Stars! Oh yeah and I borrowed Rock 80 for a long time, but I can't remember if "Rock 80" was a K-Tel record or not. K-Tel practically taught me music in my early days!

I still have the "Believe in Music" record album...i think I have the "Fantastic" one on 8-Track.

@LesSmith45 Yeah, drive-in movie. I worked as a projectionist at our drive-in for several years. I ran the movie Death Race 2000. There are no drive-in's left around here it's sad, if you have one close you are lucky. I live in Maryland, I have computer hooked to 62" TV so I just download movies with a torrent if I want to watch one now, I love it. Cheers!! Class of '79!!. P.S. I think I seen last night Obama graduated in '79.

@clintonearlwalker Sorry to hear about the job and family situation. Good to hear you are doing better though. I remember back in 78 i believe going to see death race 2000 with David Carradine and a young Sylvester Stallon at a drive in movie . How many of those are left in the country. Not many. Although were i live in Washington there is one just 4 miles from my house. It still shows movies too. Take care

@LesSmith45 Actually, I turn 50 in October. I'm not very happy about it. I don't have a job, a family, or a lot of other things. I've had a pretty rough life in general. I did 3 years in prison, I year in supermax. I never expected to live past about 15 though. I remember a movie from the 70's called "Death Race 2000". When I watched that, the year 2000 seemed like a million years away, now it seems like a million years ago. My body is not good either, smoking and drinking. Anyway, Cheers!
whats the fourth music track?? anyone?

Was there ever a K-tel album that featured punk/new wave artists?

I don't think Ktel ever did, but I'm not 100% sure.
