18 July 2017: it's... Top Ten Tuesday (1972)

[CapnJack]

7/18:

On today’s edition of Soundwaves 10@10, it’s another edition of Top 10 Tuesday!
We’ll count down the hits to the #1 song in the country on this day on whatever
year the wheel lands on! Today, we’ll hear the hit song that became a plot point in
the latest Guardians of the Galaxy movie, the Neil Diamond song covered by Frank
Sinatra and Bobby Darin; and the song ranked as the fifth most-popular song of the
decade

Some fine Soul, some vintage cheeze, and a few uber-LNs.

"Where is the love?" asked Donny.

"It's out on that window ledge," replied Roberta.

Having heard a classic AT40 from July '72 just a couple weeks ago, I don't really need to hear any of these tunes.

Not sure if it's live or just a re-recording, but this version of Song Sung Blue is definitely not the originally released version.

Enjoyed the earlier part of this set, but as we go up the chart, the more LN-y it gets.
