How did those "best of an era/genre" CD compilations become SO popular and memorable?  I was flipping through the TV last night, trying my best to find something to fall asleep to.  Then I see a club I used to play with in Nashville, with Mickey Gilley and LoriAnn Crook pitching the Time-Life Golden Age of Country Music CD set.  In typical fashion, I could not sleep, nor turn the station.  The five second or less song clips, as always, kept me hooked, but to top it off, I had to keep staring at the walls of the club during the sales pitch segments to see what all I recognized.  So many memories, and not just the music!
And to top it all off, my friend Kelly and I are chatting about this on Facebook, because she saw a comment I had posted there about the infomercial and was talking about watching it, too.  But her favorite is the Best Of The 70's...and you know what?  Guess what I asked her..."Is that the one with the guy from Air Supply on it?"  Why yes, yes it was!  How the hell did I know that?  lol...darn you, Time-Life!
