Olivia Newton-John Album by Album Thread (part2)

I just got finished playing my promo copy of Olivia's Greatest Hits 1 which I probably haven't listened to since I got it in the mid seventies. What a lovely listen it was. I had never really thought much of her as a singer but I have to say I was struck by how her sweet soul came through in every track. I found it really comforting and moving. It made me feel really good and happy.

 

I wonder if record stores back in the early 70's said where do we file her music, country, pop, easy?

Unusual picture. Never seen that before. Wonder if that was the 'close up' picture that almost made the cover of the DSB album until Olivia changed her mind?
