This is the last installment of this trip back until Bob Stroud goes back for another round August 5th. Enjoy the memories and, if you are old enough to remember these tunes (I was 21), tune in at the Drive http://www.wdrv.com/ from 7 to 10 AM.
LAYLA-- DEREK & THE DOMINOES-- An interesting market move by Atlantic-Atco, they rereleased a record that was over a year old. The first time around it kind of stiffed out in and edited version. This time it was a top ten single and on its way up the charts 40 years ago.
JOIN TOGETHER-- WHO-- Brand new 45.
BITTER BLUE-- CAT STEVENS-- From his latest release, Teaser and the Firecat. A good deep track. A month ago, "Morning Has Broken" from it was the #1 song. (Bitter Blue" is one of m favorite Cat Stevens songs.)
OUT OF SPACE-- BILLY PRESTON-- #1 song in Chicago. An instrumental. (And this guy played with the Beatles in their later years a s a group.)
Stroud also plays a little bit of a song as he comes back from commercial break, so, it's like getting a bonus. These are some of the songs he played.
DAY BY DAY-- The theme from the Broadway Musical "Godspell."
CANDY MAN-- SAMMY DAVIS JR.
LAST NIGHT I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL-- FIFTH DIMENSION-- a real hit-making machine.
SONG SUNG BLUE-- NEIL DIAMOND-- (And, like he says, "Everybody needs one."
Now, I've Got That Diamond Song in My Head. Rats!! --RoadDog
YOU CAN RETIRE TO CALIFORNIA WHERE you make over $250,000 and you still cannot afford to buy a house.
Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
