48 Original Tracks LP cover

EMI don't get to win any prizes for imaginative title writing, but this double CD was a great opportunity to get these early tracks in the mid 1990s, the UK equivalent of Japan's 1976 Crystal Lady release.

Tracks are largely drawn from the three early non-US albums Olivia Newton-John (1971), Olivia (1972) and Music Makes My Day (1973), with extra tracks from Long Live Love finishing up with some from Have You Never Been Mellow. The sound quality of this release is very good - EMI did a great job with these tracks, most of which were recorded in the UK. For some reason the track Rosewater is shorter at 3m 57s on this CD than the original release on Music Makes My Day which is a couple of verses longer at 5m 9s.
