So how would this Silver Eagle records release be any different than say those Columbia Record House releases? Both were tv info commercial releases.
I have 2 copies of the LP. It's not too different from the more well known 85' version other than a few changes in track list and front cover.
Because We Are In Love does appear on the 1985 album. Basically one of the big changes, aside from the remixes, is that the 1984 album only contains tracks from Ticket To Ride to Made In America, whereas the 1985 album contains Make Believe It's Your First Time from Voice Of The Heart.I can't find Calling Occupants on the track list, but I can find Because We Are In Love. Don't understand the logic of including Beacuse We Are In Love. Otherwise a great compilation.
I just watched the video again and it could be because they grouped the album together makes it looks like your getting 2 LP jackets instead of the 1 with 2 LPs inside, kind of deceiving. ?
I remember Silver Eagle's famous Richard clayderman albums ads in the mid 80s until then nobody here ever heard of him unless the local easy listening stations were playing his imports and he shortly got Hugely famous after thatSilver Eagle could be thought of as an outfit sort of like Rhino, or maybe a higher-grade K-Tel that specialized in compilations and reissues. They were based in Canada originally and spread to the US. Not quite the same as Columbia House which was more of a record club that hooked you in with an offer of a bunch of records for a penny, then you got the monthly selection unless you stopped it.
Silver Eagle was more of a TV marketer. You'd watch your local TV station and during those dead weekend hours, you'd see repetitive commercials for some compilation or other from a generally, formerly popular artist. The commercial posted above is a perfect example. They urged you to call the 800 number with your credit card and they'd send you the album. These type of marketers were somewhat infamous for tacking on a "shipping and handling" charge over and above the price of the record(s).
There are a number of these YESTERDAY ONCE MORE (84) albums for sale on Discogs at present for those that are curious.
