I really like Holiday by The Bee Gees new on the charts. I remember hearing the flip side Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You
--BEE GEES flip was also good but
ReplyDeletedid it get airplay? Every christian.......
--MUSIC BOX finally shows up.
This one definitely makes me
remember the Fall of 67!
If you don't have it, and it's kinda
hard to get even as an MP3, leave
your email addy here and I will forward you an MP3 of it.
It was a local group, THE LIGHT, that had this song. Played a lot
locally so we consider it a hit.
I remember the first time I heard "Holiday" on the radio. Gary Marshall played it on KFXM as I was driving on Mills. "Rock 'n Roll Woman" was the best from Buffalo Springfield. Jonny Bruce
ReplyDeleteBuffalo had a lot of good
ReplyDeletestuff. But ON THE WAY HOME is
my favorite. Maybe Johnny
Bruce remembers it but that
was being played by scabs while
JB was on the picket line.
Remember November 1968??
Don't remember playing the flip of HOLIDAY, but early BeeGees were all super. Love ON THE WAY HOME too.... Johnny Helm
ReplyDeleteThe good thing about ON THE WAY
ReplyDeleteHOME is that all you needed to
do was play a jingle and
let it rip. It took care of
itself. No need to walk up to it.
I had never heard HEAVY MUSIC.
ReplyDeleteToday I was listening to RBRoldies
on the internet. Kept listening
to the lyrics and figured it
was that song. Sure enough,
it was the Gary Marshall Pick Hit.
I had remembered seeing it recently
on a chart. It was here.
Not a bad rockin song. Why wasn't
this a bigger hit. Looks like
it disappeared and didn't make
a dent. But Bob Seger sure made
it big in the mid-late 70s.
