A pretty good mix of treacle and testy!
Not too bad a list except for #1!!! Plus didn’t know Elvis was still charting at this stage
Things were starting to get weird at this point.
I’m On Fire is a good powerpop song that doesn’t get played much, didn’t know the Rockford Files theme was in the top forty.
A balanced mix of good, bad, and ugly (#1 wow).
Loved The Rockford Files. I remember that playing on the radio in the car.
Attitude Dancing???
