Time-Life Album Discography, Part 29:As years go by, so the period of "nostalgia" likewise moves on in years. It was only natural that in the
mid-1990s, Time- Life would offer a nostalgic retrospective on 1980s music. As part of this series, they
also issued six CDs called The Rolling Stone Collection, which was numbered as part of the
same R988- series as Sounds of the Eighties. (In this case, "Rolling Stone" was the magazine,
not the rock band.) Separately, they issued a 7-CD Rolling Stone Box Set (included below). They also
released two retail budget box sets as part of the series.

The direct mail-out envelope for the Sounds of the Eighties series featured a packet of dynamite. The letter inside popped up like a children's pop-up book, with CDs and cassettes popping out of the page. The pitch was, get one free and the next one for half price. |
