Ah, spring of 1977. I was living in Pittsburgh, finishing up my junior year of high school, on the edge of 17 (but not at all like a white winged dove)…. And the scientific community was fretting about the coming ice-age... So what was playing on the pop charts?
- Don't Give Up On Us - David Soul
- Don't Leave Me This Way - Thelma Houston
- Southern Nights - Glen Campbell
- Hotel California - Eagles
- The Things We Do For Love - 10CC
- Dancing Queen - ABBA
- I've Got Love On My Mind - Natalie Cole
- Love Theme From 'A Star Is Born' (Evergreen) - Barbra Streisand
- So In To You - Atlanta Rhythm Section
- Rich Girl - Hall & Oates
Several memorable songs there, most notably Hotel California and So Into You. And lots of good R&R splattered throughout the Hot 100. Some of songs that were dominating my radio (all of which I have on my iPod today):
- Carry On My Wayward Son – Kansas (#14)
- Fly Like An Eagle - Steve Miller Band (#26)
- Heard It In A Love Song - Marshall Tucker Band (#37)
- Feels Like The First Time – Foreigner (#45)
- Cinderella – Firefall (#54)
- Back In The Saddle - Aerosmith (#70)
- Dreams - Fleetwood Mac (#77)
- Sleepwalker – Kinks (#58)
- Arrested For Driving While Blind - ZZ Top (#92)
