''Three Score and Ten: A Voice to the People'' is a multi-CD box set album issued by Topic Records in 2009 to celebrate 70 years as an independent British record label. The album consists of a hardback book containing the seven CDs and a paper insert detailing the Topic release list complimented by a card insert to balance the release list. The boxed set provides examples of recordings from the beginning of the label in 1939. Topic Records headlines their web site as ''Traditional and Contemporary Folk from the British Isles''〔(【引用サイトリンク】Topic Records Home page )〕 but in its history many other genres have appeared on the label. The album provides many examples including tracks from British Music Hall, blues, roots and World Music amongst others. The album was curated, researched and produced by David Suff〔Three Score and Ten acknowledgements〕 of Fledg'ling Records. ==Promotion== David Suff gave an interview to Simon Holland for Properganda on the 27th of July which included details of the research and length of time involved in compiling the boxed set. Simon then interviewed Tony Engle on the 7th of August about the album and the work of Topic records. This interview included a track from each of the CDs in the boxed set.
