Bought the 45 in '75 or '76 at the age of 15 or 16 . Still have it .
I think with
Woman Tonight and
You Can Do Magic they sold their souls to corporate. Dan Peek had to leave to retrieve his.
But I do remember thinking that this - now 47 year old ! - ditty had a funky groove for sure. About the same time as Starland Vocal Band -
Afternoon Delight, and Cap'n and Tenille -
Muskrat Love were playing on Top 40
. I know I had a side job as a janitor and was cleaning a kindergarten building and listened to these tunes on the radio when working at night.
I too still have a box of some 45's that I kept that didn't get "frisbee'd" from memory:
I Can See Clearly Now, Come Together, Instant Karma, Brandy, Walk on the Wild Side, Small Beginnings, Superstition, Killer Queen, Skating Away, Uncle Albert, My Sweet Lord, Holly Holy and ??? - Ken
