Mid-day jam: just because. And the 45 rpm single, on the Apple Records label, was in my Easter basket on Easter morning, 1975. 😎 I was a pretty happy 10 year-old.

One hit wonder time, 1979 style. Besides, it mixed well with the Royel Otis tune.

Headed back north and a tune I haven’t heard in … decades comes on the radio. Or Sirius. Whatever. It just sounded good.

It’s getting chillier out here ondeck but I’m not quite done; one of the things that impressed me about my evening at that disco tech in Fussen, Germany in early 2000 was the DJ wasn’t afraid to mix in some older material with dance tunes of the day. Like this little number from Hot Chocolate. It was kinda badass.

Then there’s the summer of ‘78. Out here ondeck at the moment, anyway. 😉

Takin' It Easy

A decent Thursday afternoon drive: on the way to take riveting, iconic, compelling photos for the newspaper of (checks notes) some sort of business/home show. Tapping into the 70s one hit wonder file as I go.

Monday Morning
You sure look fine
Friday I got travelin' on my mind
First you love me and then you fade away
I can't go on believin' this way
I got nothing but love for you
First you love me, then you get on down the line
But I don't mind
I don't mind, yeah
I'll be there if you want me to
No one else that could ever do
Got to get some peace in my mind

Monday Morning (2017 Remaster)

A different type of highway song; that moment when you’re drivin’ and thinkin’ and there’s a song on the radio (“Song On The Radio” - huh - I think there’s an idea for a tune there somewhere 🤔)

A Friday nighty night jam: the guy had a helluva musical resume’ and this is the first song of his I remember hearing one morning in 1975 on WIFC/Wausau as a 10 year-old getting ready for school. He obviously had been in the music biz well before that. Rest easy, Neil.

A tune that just never gets old. Not for me, anyway.
