Thank you so much for this! Going back in time, listening to these songs, is bittersweet. On one hand, it exemplifies the brilliance of the singers and songwriters of the time. On the other, it makes me yearn for those times.
I was snorting "fire" in the 70s. Now I am a old man on oxygen and last month the O2 caught fire as I was inhaling so I snorting fire yet again. Somehow it's not quite the same as I remember or anywhere near as much fun as I remember.... lmao
1970s bands have their lead singer solo hits The guess who =stand tall ( their lead singer burton Cummings) The four seasons = grease ( their lead singer Frankie Valli) The Beatles = maybe I’m amazed ( their lead singer Paul McCartney) The temptations = shoeshine boys ( their lead singer Eddie Kendrick) The temptations = walk aways ( their lead singer David ruffins ) The supremes = ain’t no mountain high ( their lead singer Diana Ross before Jean Terrell join ) The supremes = love hangover ( their lead singer Diana Ross before Jean Terrell join ) Face = da ya think I’m sexy ( their lead singer rod Stewart )
Request Singers sing at their 40s in 1970s Johnnie Taylor = disco lady ( at age 42) Frankie Valli = grease ( at age 44) Sammy Davis jr.= the candy man ( at age 47)
Porter Wagoner = green green grass of home (1972) ( at age 45 ) he was on Porter Wagoner Show, Frankie Valli = swearin’ to god (1975) ( at age 41 ), Conway Twitty = I’ve never been this far before (1973) ( at age 40 ), Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson = mammas don’t let your babies grow up to become cowboys (1978) ( at ages 41 and 45 ), Andy Williams = where do you begin (love story) (1971) ( at age 44 ), B.B King = the thrill is gone (1970) ( at age 45 ), Joe Tex = ain’t gonna bump no more (1977) ( at age 42 )
Elvis Presley (1977) ( age 42 ), Jimi Hendrix (1970) ( age 28 ), Janis Joplin (1970) ( age 27 ), Pete Ham (1975) (age 28 ), Jim Morrison (1971) ( age 28 ), Louis Armstrong (1971) ( age 70 ), Leonard Lee (1976) ( age 40), Jim Croce (1973) ( age 30 ), Alan Wilson (1970) ( age 27 ), Arlester Dyke Christian (1971) ( age 28 ), Graham Bond (1974) ( age 37 ), Florence Ballard (1976) ( age 33 ), Tammi Terrell (1970) ( age 25 ), Earl Grant (1970) ( age 39 ), Big Maybelle (1972) ( age 48 ), Cassie Gaines (1978) ( age 29 ), Guy Lombardo (1977) ( age 75 ), Bing Crosby (1977) ( age 74 ), Sandy Denny (1978) ( age 31 ), Bill Kenny (1978) ( age 64 ), Terry Kath (1978) ( age 32 )
These songs were the top 2 singles on Billboard Magazine's Year-end charts in the 70s (Notice Debbie Boone's You Light Up My Life, is not included?). This doesn't make them the 20 greatest hits of the 70s. Because of Billboard's November 1st cut off, many songs never appeared on the year-end charts. This problem lingered into the 1980s until Billboard moved its cutoff date to December 1st in 1985. Another problem was the computers would only credit a song for its performance within' the chart survey period of November 1st to October 31st. That's why Debbie Boone's hit, You Light Up My Life, does not appear on the 1977 year-end chart and was only #3 on the 1978 year-end chart.
