Episode 83: The Week Ending November 17, 1979 Good Girls Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough

samedi 16 novembre 2024 • Durée 02:36:13

This week it’s so good, so right, that we have some guest rankings to go along with ours. Still, there is a potential that there will be a heartache tonight. Will we rise above our individual biases and say “enough is enough”? This week we listen to the pop muzic in the Billboard Top 40 from the week ending November 17, 1979. Will this be ladies night, or something that appeals more to a dirty white boy? Who knows? Damned if I do. This night won’t last forever, so dim all the lights and close your eyes. Perhaps you will dream, just beware of the dream police.

Episode 82: The Week Ending October 19, 1974 Can’t Get Enough of Nothing from Nothing

jeudi 17 octobre 2024 • Durée 02:20:23

Well it may seem like this podcast is an overnight sensation, but actually, it took an everlasting love and devotion for the need to be the best that got us here. Sure you may be saying “What? You haven’t done nothin’!”. Well to that we say, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Our 2 listeners can’t get enough of the show, and they consider us the kings of the party. This week the Billboard Top 40 from the week ending October 19, 1974 makes me feel like I got the music in me! So much so that we may just break into our Longfellow serenade, that one is my melody of love.

Episode 73: The Week Ending April 1, 1972 Everybody Plays the Fool

samedi 30 mars 2024 • Durée 02:05:29

This week we talk about how back in the '70s, I grew up on a farm down by the lazy river where I had a horse with no name. The horse was sickly, but it had a heart of gold. Then there was the day that I found myself in the court of king heroin. I realized I was runnin’ away and slipping into darkness with no one to depend on. Then came the day I lost everything I own. This week we take a look around at the Billboard Top 40 for the Week of April 1, 1972, and if you believe any of what has been said here, then I GOTCHA!

Episode 72: The Week Ending March 17, 1979 The Sultans of Freak

dimanche 17 mars 2024 • Durée 02:28:55

Don’t cry out loud, we know it’s St. Patrick’s Day. Maybe I’m a fool, or just falling for what a fool believes, but I once saw a leprechaun and gave chase. I don’t know if it’s right, but I swear it’s got to be real, he was the greatest dancer that I’ve ever seen! This week we go stublin’ in to the Billboard Top 40 from the Week of March 17, 1979. Heaven knows I miss the 70’s, so please take me home.

Episode 71: The Week Ending March 1, 1975 Poetry Man, You’re No Good

mardi 27 février 2024 • Durée 02:13:29

We’re back in ‘75 again and somehow it feels like I’ve been this way before. It seems like it's high time we hop in our Chevy Van, get movin’ on, and roll on down the highway in the express lane. This week it's part of the plan to review the Billboard Top 40 from the Week of March 1st, 1975. What kind of emotion will this episode bring? If you have a strong opinion, don’t call us, we’ll call you!

Episode 70: The Week Ending Valentine’s Day, 1976 I Write the Deep Purple Songs

mardi 13 février 2024 • Durée 02:26:14

As you look back on the times of your life, what was Valentine’s Day like? Back in the 70s, were you a love machine who used your charms to land a money honey? Did you break the heart of a sweet thing? Perhaps the tables turned at some point and you rode a love rollercoaster with an evil woman. I am sure you found out that love hurts and oh how breaking up is hard to do. Well, one thing I am sure of is that I love music. So wake up everybody, because this week we are going to take a slow ride through the Billboard Top 40 from the Week of February 14, 1976. We may sing a song or two. Won’t you join me, because I surely can’t do this all by myself?

Episode 69: The Week Ending January 25, 1975 Pick Up the Pieces After Kung Fu Fighting

jeudi 25 janvier 2024 • Durée 02:19:59

Seems like we never can say goodbye to the 70s, we just can’t get it out of our head. It is probably because as a nightingale would, we were struttin’ our stuff like a free bird back then. This week we call on the entertainer to be the Billboard Top 40 from the Week of January 25, 1975. When we get to the end of the countdown will we be saying “you’re no good”, or will we say it was some kind of wonderful? No matter what, per doctor’s orders, you’d better take a big yellow taxi to the nearest club and get dancin’!

Episode 68: Cuchi Cuchi in the Cookie Jar, Charo and the Salsoul Orchestra Cuchi Cuchi

samedi 13 janvier 2024 • Durée 01:31:47

Back in the 70s there may have been a little too many visits to the cookie jar. When you chose to dance a little bit closer; you hoped your partner liked a little bit more of you. Alas it is only you who could decide when you’re just the right size. This week, let’s spend the night together and have a listen to Charo and the Salsoul Orchestra Cuchi Cuchi. There is no need to beat the clock, so we’re not going to go through it like Speedy Gonzalez, but instead take it like a slow ride on a borriquito.

Episode 67: Bottom 25 of the Top 80 of 1972 I’m Still in Love with Sylvia’s Mother Layla in the New Year

dimanche 31 décembre 2023 • Durée 01:55:15

I don’t know what you are doing this New Year’s Eve, but back in 1972, in places like the city of New Orleans, there were likely people getting ready to bang a gong with the Witch Queen at midnight. I’m not really sure how they celebrate in other parts of the world; in Hawaii perhaps they express their joy with a coconut. Now, I have never been to Spain, and I am sure their celebrations can’t be described in terms of black and white, but I am willing to bet they are drowning in a sea of love. For myself, you can call it a case of puppy love, but I hope just after midnight to kiss an angel in the morning. This week we declare schools out on the bottom 25 of the top 80 songs of 1972. Don’t say you don’t remember any of them because if so, I’ll tell Sylvia’s mother.

Christmas music and the ‘70s, these are just a few of my favorite things. Since I believe in Father Christmas, our Christmas card to you will include a little St. Nick up on the house top in a winter wonderland. Hey America, oh come all ye faithful as we take a sleigh ride through some of the most popular Christmas albums of the ‘70s.
