   "A Kick Up the Eighties series" from Old Gold (1990-1993)

Anyone know about these? The tray art indicates "original hit recording"

Trying to determine if any contain "rare" 45 versions. Hoping someone like Ron :) has info.

Thanks

	They are not re-recordings but I know Old Gold was issuing 12 inch soul/disco singles after they were taken out of print and a few in my circle, complained about the quality. They did some various artists compilations years later and 3 song singles of "recent gold". Lots of errors on the inserts and some tracks taken from vinyl although they appear licensed. Some of it to my ears sounded like what Unidisc would later put out. I only have one compilation put out by them as much of this stuff was later reissued on US comps/Ben Liebrand's Grand 12 Inch series: https://www.discogs.com/release/1184756-Various-Best-Of- 12-Inch-Gold-Volume-5 Hear for yourself: Hope this helps. https://www.youtube.com/results? search_query=old+gold+12+inch
