Bubble Gum Greatest Hits Vol. III
Accord 7160 - re-issue compilation LP 

Producers Jerry Kasenetz and Jeffry Katz claimed credit for coining "bubblegum", saying that when they discussed their target audience, they decided it was "teenagers, the young kids. And at the time we used to be chewing bubblegum, and my partner and I used to look at it and laugh and say, 'Ah, this is like bubblegum music'." The term was then popularized by their boss, Buddah Records label executive Neil Bogart.  Most bubblegum acts were one-hit wonders (notable exceptions included The Cowsills, The Partridge Family, and Tommy Roe) and the sound remained a significant commercial force until the early 1970s. During the later 1970s, the original bubblegum sound was a formative influence on punk rock, new wave, and melodic metal.
