Think Dave'll go into the McCartney well again?  I won't be surprised if "Another Day" turns up.

But I'd rather get 3DN's "Liar."

Happy to get a second helping of "What Is Life."  BOS from me.

Being as we have one already, I'm going to say two, rich vein of material that 1971 tends to be. But I expect to have artist duplication on at least two others as well.

Oh, and a strong BOS to the Faces, Stay With Me.
Let's get right to it.

BOS2: Here comes that Four Seasons feeling again!

ETA: I actually thought this was them for several years.

The astute listener will note that those descending low piano notes at the coda of HCTRDFA showed up again a few years later on the coda of Kiss's "Shout It Out Loud."

Holy sh!t!  Another in my all-time Top 5, Lighthouse's "One Fine Morning."  A perfect riposte to the Fortunes' lament.

Man, was that 7-11 commercial R-rated or what?

...and now it's time for ABC's Wide World of Sports.

Am I spotting vinyl?  This song was mixed really poorly on two compilations I have.

Good tune.  Thought it might be the Ides of March.  Did Lighthouse do anything else of note?

Proxy of RGMike goes to the Supremes' "Nathan Jones."  I would have liked "Floy Joy" more but will accept this gladly.  I still haven't found a good post-Diana Supes comp!

They had one more hit a year later, "Sunny Days," which Dave trots out once or twice a year IIRC.
