Pair Karen Carpenter and another beloved SONGbird...

@BrendaD didn't think this thread would last maybe 3 or 4 pages

WRONG!!!!

This song was my High School graduation song 1972

Can't remember what my High School 1971 grad song was...but I might have picked this which came out in 1970
Ohhhh...so many beautiful female vocalists...my heart throbbed over them all...I won't mention something else

 

[JBoy1952]

I could keep going here all night...NOT
But Three Dog Night, Chicago, Credence and others....early 70s and soft rock was grand! I still have a lot of their LP albums.
Changed to country lover with the hard rock screamers...

Gladys Knight & the Pips - Friendship Train

I personally like this train better than the one that leaves Georgia at midnight, but that's just me. I had forgotten how may hits they had throughout the 60s and 70s (like this song), yet they seem to be remembered for only one song, which is kind of sad.

Neil Diamond - Heartlight (Classic Diamonds / Visualizer)​

Flashback: Neil Diamond’s E.T. Ode ‘Heartlight’ Causes Legal Skirmish​

Diamond had to cough up a reported $25,000 when lawyers for MCA felt this song infringed upon the copyright of the film

Does anything by Bob Seger make you want to get up and dance or at least crank it up.

Old Time Rock and Roll

 

[Elmo_Lincoln]

Does anything by Bob Seegar make you want to get up and dance or at least crank it up.

This one does. He closed out both his live albums with this song and they both end on a high note.

if I am driving and Hollywood nights comes on the radio, I know I have to look at the speedometer, because I know I will be speeding.

I agree with that choice. Also, Rock and Roll Never Forgets is another one that you want to roll the windows down and let everyone else listen to it with you.

Her strut also deserves lots of volume

I gotta remember to remove my hearing aids BEFORE putting my headphones on sheesh!

A lot of those tracks on "Nine Tonight" were very well done.....the live version of Main Street, the guitar solo seems to have so much more impact(maybe its just my thoughts)....and I played Fire Lake very often too

 

[hairball18]

I forgot about fire lake.

 

[rjr_1954]

Fire Lake (Live/Remastered)​

 

[deltablues65]

I forgot about fire lake.

All that early eighties rock, late seventies actually......such as The Cars, Foreigner, Journey, Supertramp, Fleetwood, Frampton Comes Alive was a staple in my cassette player, those two guitar solo's in Do You Feel.....always played at the max

 

[deltablues65]

Fire Lake (Live/Remastered)​

Just finished listening to Main Street

 

[deltablues65]

Our minds always drift to the swimming pool scene in Fast Times with Phoebe Cates....but the use of Moving in Stereo was the perfect compliment to that scene, such a good bass track in that song

 

[deltablues65]

Check out Moving in Stereo Live in Houston 1984.....Benjamin Orr at his best

I was one of the snobs who was a Cars fanatic (and automobiles too), but didn’t care for Heartbeat City at all. Or maybe it was just Drive and Magic that I really did not want to hear… ever again.

 

[deltablues65]

for anyone whom wants to give this a listen....Stay the night-Benjamin Orr-fender jaguar.....it is the track of the stay the night, however another guitarist has layed his own guitar playing on the song, the video is hazy, but the sound is chrystal clear, and I watched this video quite a few times, and I am 99% percent sure he is playing this bit, and that guitar is amazing, just love the sound of it
