If anyone has any of Syd Dale's 'Love Isn't Just For The Young' albums between volume 101 - 135, I would be very grateful if they could upload them. The reason that I am interested in these albums is that as far as I can tell, all of these compositions were for Muzak.
Many Thanks.

WOW! Thanks for these! All the Syd Dale EZ collections haven't been available for streaming or download purchase in a long time. Great to have a nice chunk of em in flac ;D

Thanks for all of these winter2014. They help to square the circle re Syd Dale works. Though it is a curious collection. I haven't listened to all of them yet but from what I have heard so far there don't appear to be any original Syd Dale compositions but rather instrumental versions of hits from the early eighties. Some are good and some are less so. The synth strings intro to Uptown Girl, for example, sounds more like something you'd hear on a karaoke laser disc at the time. But overall the music is not unlike that released by Surrey House Music. Certainly Surrey House included five similar tracks by Syd on their CD 7002 Ronnie, Ron & Syd so I'm wondering if there is a connection. Can anyone fill the gaps in my knowledge?

Most, if not all of the compositions were originally made for Muzak's library - you can hear quite a few on this demonstration tape:-

Many thanks to winter2014 and mayak60.

re-up of winter2014 and mayak60's tracks (thanks!), and what I could find on mp3.pm crossed with track lists I could find (for another 69 songs): pixeldrain.com/u/D7iTgQsY
A tidbit of backstory: In the very late 70's Muzak contracted with Starborne for tracks from multiple composers, and they kept working with Syd after that until (aparently) 1984/5.
