THINK of an LP with all your favourite artistes included and you are without a doubt thinking of a newie out on the Arcade label. There are 20 fantastic hits on the record for £1.99 and all of them are as originally recorded.
We've had albums of hits before but never on such a scale featuring the original artistes so I reckon this one should have no difficulty at all in storming the charts.
Arcade records are spending about £350,000 during the next eight weeks to promote "Fantastic Hits" on television and they plan to follow up its expected success with other similar albums. With that sort of organisation how can you fail?
