Paid [$] for 10 cd's which I consider "about average" - not really a great deal, but I thought if they were all re-done ("digitally re-mastered" is what I believe the infomercial stated), they would sound great.PROBLEM - From one song to the next, there is significant change in VOLUME; one song will be loud, the next you can barely hear, the next one loud again.
There are alot of great songs from this era that were not on the cd's & MANY filler songs I had never even heard of. Others were not by the original artists! Why waste the space?-
The T.V. ad is VERY misleading! From this entire collection, I only found 71 songs that I liked from the late 60s to early 70s. That means instead of spending [$](+tax +s/h) for the entire collection, I could have purchase my favorite songs, on-line, for less[...]AND I wouldn't have to listen to FILLER music of less popluar flip-side songs.
I expected much better from Time-Life!

'Flower Power: the Music of the Love Generation' is a must-have collection of 60s-70s tunes.
This 10-CD, 175 song collection encompasses a wide variety of songs, from Donovan, to Jefferson Airplane, to Tommy James & the Shondells, to Mott the Hoople, to The Kinks, to Janis Joplin, and countless others.
There are 5 CDs, each named for the songs on the disc (i.e. 'Time of the Season', 'Groovin''). It's difficult to accurately describe this collection in a review beccause of the wide range of artists and songs, so I can only describe this as follows: good music.
As a teenager, I was not alive in the sixties, or the seventies, and not even the bulk of the eighties, but I can say that this is the best collection of music I've ever listened to.

We used these CDs for my husband's birthday party and everybody was singing along. It was a lot of fun for the boomer crowd.

As an avid 60's music fan, I highly recommend this collection as one of the best I've heard. For the most part, the 175 or so songs are those that you will not typically hear on "classic rock" radio. For example, there's no Hendrix, Doors, Rolling Stones or Beatles songs that are played over and over on classic rock stations today. I hadn't heard some of the songs in the collection for a very long time. It's like reliving an era to listen to this set. The excellent liner notes enhance this feeling. Also, the sound quality is superb. Buy this set for some thoroughly enjoyable listening and a memorable trip back to the 60's.
