The first disc draws to a close with a stack of Pop classics from Marshall Hain, Clout, Bonnie Tyler and Suzi Quatro and Wings, before the peerless â??The Man With The Child In His Eyesâ?? from Kate Bush.
The second disc pays tribute to the incredible line-up of artists in the charts of 1978 with their roots in Punk and beginning the burgeoning New Wave movement , kicking off here with the stunning #1 â??Rat Trapâ?? from The Boomtown Rats, the era-defining â??Teenage Kicksâ?? from The Undertones, â??Ever Fallen In Loveâ?¦â?? from Buzzcocks, and â??Hanging On The Telephoneâ?? from Blondie, alongside classic singles from Siouxsie And The Banshees, The Rezillos, The Clash, The Jam, Elvis Costello & The Attractions, and Ian Dury & The Blockheadsâ?¦ and US New Wave saw Patti Smith and The Cars score huge hits.

Disc 3 is a fabulous celebration of Disco in 1978.

More Dance-oriented hits from Hot Chocolate and Earth, Wind & Fire feature, before the disc closes with two of the yearâ??s most beautiful ballads from Heatwave and the timeless â??Love Donâ??t Live Here Anymoreâ?? from Rose Royce.
The final disc is all about the Pop smashes of the year â?? opening with â??Denisâ?? the chart breakthrough from Blondie, and two huge hits from the soundtrack to â??Greaseâ?? from Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta.
