06/27/12 - Wednesday! 1977!
1. Ian Dury and the Blockheads - Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll
(News: Jimmy Carter talking about decriminalization of marijuana)
2. Jackson Browne - Running on Empty
3. Les Dudek - Old Judge Jones
(Movie: Saturday Night Fever - John Travolta "I got a raise today. I knew you'd piss on it.")
4. Bee Gees - Night Fever
(Movie: Saturday Night Fever - "Will ya just watch the hair. "Ya know... I work on my hair a long time and he hits it... he hits my hair.")
5. Eddie and the Hot Rods - Do Anything You Wanna Do
6. Fleetwod Mac - Go Your Own Way
(news: Elvis is dead, has really left the building)
7. Elvis Presley - Way Down
(TV: SNL - Gilda Radner as Babwa Wawa)
8. Abba - Dancing Queen
9. Blondie - Denis
(Movie: Annie Hall - Woody Allen "Love is too weak a word. I lurve you.)
10. Marvin Gaye - Got To Give It Up
Well, despite a couple of unforgiveable LNs, we got *THREE* pretty amazing bustouts: Dudek, Eddie/HotRods and Elvis. (it's really kind of amazing we'd never heard the Presley before, considering we get "Elvis is dead" clips in nearly every '77 outing. It's a fine, underrated 45 IMHO).
I call that a good day.
