Leo Sayer (born Gerard Hugh Sayer, 21 May 1948) is an English-Australian singer-songwriter musician and entertainer whose singing career has spanned four decades. He is now an Australian citizen and resident. Sayer launched his career in the United Kingdom in the early 1970s, and became a top singles and album act on both sides of the
Atlantic in the 1970s. His first seven hit singles in the United Kingdom all reached the Top 10 – a feat first registered by his first manager, Adam Faith.

This 3 x CD's set features all the A and B-sides from Leo Sayer's most prolific period during the '70s, '80s and beyond. Best known for hits like 'Long Tall Glasses', 'You Make Me Feel Like Dancing' and 'When I Need You', Sayer was a songwriter and performer before that string of hits and long after, creating albums that were virtually ignored until recent years. Unlike many other '70s hitmakers, Sayer was a respected composer and had hits in the UK before crossing over the pond and becoming a sensation in the U.S. Here's Leo in all his glory!
