* means it is climbing the charts.
25. DON'T PULL YOUR LOVE-- Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds #4 Classic early 70s rock. Still don't know why Joe Frank got his names in the group name and the other two just their last names.
24. MOON SHADOW-- Cat Stevens #30 Too bad he gave up singing. Follow up to "Wild World." I especially remember listening to his "Tea for the Tillerman" album when I lived at Ski's trailer at the University of Georgia. Takes me right back.
23. YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND-- James Taylor #1 Everybody needs a real good friend like James. His only #1 hit.
22. *I JUST WANT TO CELEBRATE-- Rare Earth #7 The drummer does the lead singing. Who says white guys can't sing soul? From Detroit. One of the first white groups signed by Motown.
21. SOONER OR LATER-- Grass Roots #9 As far as I am concerned, this is a very underrated group. One of the members was Creed Bratton, one of the stars of the TV show "The Office." From San Francisco.
Name That Tune (from the above songs): "And If I Ever Lose My hands, Lose My Plow, Lose My Land." Answer below. --RoadDog
