Includes liner notes by Vince Aletti, Brian Chin and Cecil Holmes. This 4-CD box set contains highlights from Casablanca Records' heyday in the 1970's. It is packaged in a deluxe foil-stamped slipcase and includes a 48-page booklet with in-depth essays, detailed track annotation and photos from the Casablanca archives. Even though it includes four discs, The Casablanca Records Story ignores the record label's biggest success, Kiss. But that doesn't matter; Kiss didn't fit into the rest of the label's roster. Driven by the massive success of Donna Summer, Casablanca was arguably the definitive disco label in the late '70s, scoring a string of hit singles that have become classics of the era. Featuring four discs of original single versions and 12" mixes, The Casablanca Records Story features most of the best music the label released, even though it probably could have been more effectively compiled on two or three discs. Nevertheless, there is plenty of fine, even seminal, music here, which makes it essential for serious disco collectors. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
