Monster Madness is a compilation album of heavy metal hits released in 2000 as part of Razor & Tie's "Monster" line of 1980s hard rock/metal compilation CDs ( Monsters of Rock, Monster Ballads , etc.). However, despite including a number of Top Ten or Top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, this was less successful than its predecessors, and it didn't receive a certification from the RIAA.

<i>You Lay So Easy on My Mind</i> 1974 studio album by Andy Williams

You Lay So Easy on My Mind is the thirty-fourth studio album by American pop singer Andy Williams, released in November 1974 by Columbia Records. The idea for this LP was mentioned in an interview with Williams in the November 3, 1973, issue of Billboard magazine that emphasized his desire to move away from recording albums of Easy Listening covers of hits by other artists, noting that he was "planning an album to be cut in Nashville with Columbia's high-flying country-pop producer, Billy Sherrill." The article coincided with the release of his first attempt to shift directions, Solitaire, which performed poorly. A return to the Easy Listening hits formula, The Way We Were, followed in the spring of 1974 but failed to even chart, so this next attempt to eschew soft rock songs leaned heavily on Country hits.
