Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Summer of '72-- Part 6

Continuing with the music from that summer 40 years ago.  July 1, 1972.

WILLING--  LITTLE FEAT--  Sailing Shoes was released a few months earlier, their second album produced by Ted Templeman who was also busy working with another fairly new group, the Doobie Brothers.  One of the great Lowell George compositions.  Little Feat is one of the most underappreciated groups by the masses; their loss.  (In total agreement here all you Dixie Chickens.)

I NEED YOU--  AMERICA--  Current hit following "Horse With No Name" off their debut album.
SANDMAN--  AMERICA-- deep track off their debut album in the Top Ten-selling albums here in Chicago.

LONG COOL WOMAN--  HOLLIES--  Brand new and would go on to become one of their biggest-selling  singles with the great Allen Clarke on vocals.

HOW DO YOU DO--  MOUTH & McNEILL--  New in your radio and following in the footsteps of other Dutch bands before them like the Shocking Blue,  George Baker Selection and Tee Set.  A curious little record that sold a million copies.  (And, one of my favorites that I hadn't heard in a really long time.  Remember "My Little Green Bag" and "Ma Belle Amie?"
TIGHTWIRE--  LEON RUSSELL--  His latest from the album Carny, a couple weeks old at this time.

ALL DOWN THE LINE--  ROLLING STONES--  Deep track from their new album.
TUMBLING DICE--  ROLLING STONES--  Current 45 from the great Exile on Main Street double vinyl release.
