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

WLS Top 30 for Week of January 11, 1971-- Part 3: 'River Deep, Mountain High'

* Means the song was climbing the charts.  The number after the artist is how high the song got on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

20.  *LET YOUR LOVE GO--  Bread       #28    Almost sounded like CCR at the beginning.  I didn't remember it, but for those of you who think Bread was just a schmaltzy slow song band.  Maybe they weren't.  Great song.

19.  *GAMES-- Redeye     #27    Great harmonies.  Sounded a bit like CSNY.    I'd also forgotten this song.  From Los Angeles.

18.  *1900 YESTERDAY--   Liz Damon's Orient Express      #33    A real different song.  Never heard it before, but keep listening to it and it grows on you.

17.  PAY TO THE PIPER--  Chairmen of the Board     #13   Beach Music way back then.  That's general Johnson and his guys.

16.   RIVER DEEP - MOUNTAIN HIGH--   Supremes / Four Tops    #14    Hey, who needs Diana?
