BLUE SWEDE-- "Hooked ona feeling" went to #1 in 1971. Swedish rock band formed to back Bjorn Skifs in convert, they did the cover of B.J. Thomas' 1969 song. Stayed on the U.S. charts for 18 weeks. The poor folks I deejayed for would always have to listen to the beginning several times or more. I still like it.
REDBONE-- Big song "Come and Get Your Love" Million-selling, gold certified #5 in 1974. Native American rock group most active in the 1970s. Formed in 1969 in Los Angeles. The Redbone name is a Cajun term referring to persons of mixed race. Also had a big hit with "Maggie" in 1970 and "Witch Queen of New Orleans."
