some clip about a heatwave in NYC (maybe)?
there was a big blackout on a hot humid July night in NYC that year.
I remember it well... there was a heat wave coupled with the usual East Coast high humidity.
I took refuge in our cool cellar, and spent many hours listening to a late-night talk show host.
(Can't for the life of me remember his name or the (FM) station... any ideas, Mike? He wasn't a
conservative, and the show wasn't overtly political -- just a grab-bag of whatever people
wanted to talk about.)
Also fueling a certain frenzy that summer, particularly in the media, was the ".44 Caliber Killer,"
David Berkowitz.
IMNSHO, 1977 was one of the worst years for music, along with 1978.
