Description
Olivia Newton-John was at a career crossroads when she recorded the performances collected on The 1970s Broadcast Collection. From appearances on the classic US TV shows Midnight Special and the Mike Douglas Show to her own 1977 UK TV special, Only Olivia, she regaled studio audiences - including, for the latter, lucky members of the official Olivia Newton-John fan club - with a range of country-pop favourites (If You Love Me Let Me Know, Take Me Home Country Roads) and love ballads (Have You Never Been Mellow, I Honestly Love You), cementing her place as one of the era's most beloved entertainers. Her life-changing role as Sandy, in the film adaptation of Grease, was just around the corner, but vintage performances such as these serve as a reminders that Newton-John had reached the heights of fame before those high-school hand jives and summer-night anthems.
