WLS Top 30 for Week of February 8, 2021-- Part 4: 'Love the One You're With'

15.   GROOVE ME--  King Floyd     #6        Aw.  Sookie, Sookie, What You talking 'Bout Willis?  Move over Marvin Gaye.  Plenty of "Sexual Healing" here.  From New Orleans.

14.  (THEME FROM) LOVE STORY--  Henry Mancini    #1      That instantly identifiable piano intro.  Born in Cleveland.

13.  LOVE THE ONE YOU'RE WITH--  Stephen Stills        #14     Backing vocals by Rita Coolidge, David Crosby, Graham Nash and John Sebastian.  His biggest solo hit.

12.  AMOS MOSES--  Jerry Reed     #8     Why did he have to trap alligators with just one hand?  Some of the coolest words in a song ever written.  What you might call Swamp Rap.  The Snowman speaks.  Where's Fred.

11.  WE GOTTA GET YOU A WOMAN--  Runt       #20      But, we all know it's Todd Rundgren out on his own for a first effort.  Another song I heard a whole lot on my trip to Florida for Spring Break 1971 from NIU.

Name That Tune (from the above songs):  "Lived a Man Called Doc Milsap And His Pretty Wife Hannah."  Answer below.  --RoadDog


"Amos Moses"
