Tue 6/29/10: 1973

Band on the Run - Wings
Grown' Up - Spring Springsteen
Brother Louie - Stories
5.15 - The Who
We're An American Band - Grand Funk Railroad
Roll Over Beethoven - ELO
Midnight Rider - Greg Allman
Photograph - Ringo Starr
Whisky in the Jar - Thin Lizzy
Bad Bad Leroy Brown - Jim Croce

it still astounds me that Thin Lizzy's "Whiskey..." is from '73 -- got zero NYC airplay then, and when "Boys Are Back" emerged in '76 they were characterized as this "new" Irish band (and our prog-rock powerhouse, WNEW-FM, really shoulda known better).
