當年欣賞西洋歌曲的環境都很簡陋,經濟狀況也不是很好,所以大部份都是買「學生之音」或「冠軍集錦」之類的選輯翻版唱片來聽,便宜(我從10.-/片,買到30.-/片,民國60年到67年)又大碗(一張唱片12/14首左右,TOP 40幾乎都可以囊括進來)。而這張專輯是我最早期買的幾張專輯唱片之一,算是從選輯唱片轉跨入專輯唱片領域的啟蒙專輯之一。從此發現專輯唱片的內容是這麼的精采(當然也有爛透了的),這麼豐富,有如發現新大陸一般的興奮,從此就踏上了這條不歸之路。

Lobo 的歌總是這麼舒服啊!
有些專輯真的是爛透了,除了主打歌能聽之外,其他的不曉得在幹什麼。現在專輯還常常一曲多版,甚至再附個卡拉OK版,一張專輯其實只有七、八首歌。
我第一張接觸的專輯是 Kenny Rogers - 20 Greatest Hits (1983),其實這也只是精選輯,但是我第一次聽一整捲都是單一歌手的作品。這捲卡帶是我移民美國的舅舅送我的。
Kenny Rogers & Dottie West 這首 'Til I Can Make It On My Own 原於1979年發行,亦有收錄進 Kenny Rogers 這張精選輯。Dottie West 唱歌超好聽!

後來我陸續買過幾位歌手的精選輯,如 Sheena Easton、Bee Gees、The Carpenters... 等等,第一次真的買歌手的專輯應該是 Laura Branigan - Self Control (1984),當時覺得「喔喔喔」好好聽。

Laura Branigan是出了幾張不錯的專輯.可惜...不到50歲就[走了].
Lobo - Intro/Country Feelings
I've still got those country feelings
And their roots are in my soul
When I'm so tired I can't take it
Of this life that I've been sold
I turn off the world around me
And go drifting back in line
As those same old country feelings
Just come flowing across my mind
