I recently picked up this K-Tel album at our local library's book sale.  It was in great condition for an album that is 36 years old. This is a classic---K-Tel's Stars . The album, as usual, features an eclectic mix of music.  From disco standards to pop ballads to rock and roll, this album cuts across genres and offers a great glimpse of the year that brought us Star Wars , Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Annie Hall .  Most of the songs made it to the Billboard Year End Chart for 1977.  A couple are on the 1976 chart.  And one is on the 1973 chart. Here's the commercial: This is the album featured on Adventures in Vinyl this month.  Join us for a music trip back to 1977 through the magic of K-Tel.  We'll play the album in its entirety and discuss the music, movies and news of the day. Adventures in Vinyl can be heard to the following time (all Central): audemar Sunday, 4 pm Tuesday, 1 pm Wednesday, 2 am Thursday, 10 am Saturday, 12 pm
