Goin' Back to the Summer of '79-- Part 12: "Dance the Night Away"
This is the fourth and final installment of Bob Stroud's annual Root Salute to the Summer of 40 years earlier. This being 1979. I am not sure what he will do next year since his Rock and Roll Roots show, aired on Chicago's WDRV, 97.1 FM on Sundays from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. features just music from the 1960s and 1970s. Next year, of course, is 1980.
Anyway, these are the songs on the radio and in your album collection on September 1, 1979:
HEART OF THE NIGHT-- Poco
HOLD ON-- Triumph
GIRL'S GOT RHYTHM-- AC/Dc
LOGICAL SONG-- Supertramp
FINS-- Jimmy Buffett
DANCE THE NIGHT AWAY-- Van Halen
I NEED A LOVER-- John Cougar
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER-- Blondie
DAMNED IF I DO-- Alan Parsons Project
ROCK AND ROLL FANTASY-- Bad Company
HEY HEY, MY MY (INTO THE BLACK)-- Neil Young
CATCH ME NOW I'M FALLING-- Kinks
MY SHARONA-- Knack #1 song in Chicago and all over the radio.
Name That Tune (from the above songs): "I'm Gonna Getcha Getcha Getcha Getcha." Answer below. --RoadDog
