Re: Seventies Songs You Never Hear Anymore

Heard this on the radio yesterday a song I havent heard for about 30 years or more

Beg steal or borrow-New Seekers 1972

That was the UK's Eurovision Song Contest entry, which came 2nd. Although I'm too young to remember that year's contest, I've been able to read about it in two Eurovision Song Contest books that I have, and on the official Eurovision Song Contest website. That song is also on the album "This is Eurovision" which I've had for several years.

Re: Seventies Songs You Never Hear Anymore

The Summer of 1978 had great songs in the charts another one is Baby stop crying-Bob Dylan

Dreadlock Holiday 10CC they play this song sometimes on the radio

Autumn 1978 loved Forever Autumn-Justin Hayward love this song played sometime on the radio someone else had covered this lately it sounded just as good as the original

I know. Daylight Katie was another much-played record in the autumn of 1978, as I recall. Remember that other song from Justin Hayward - Driftwood, I think it was called?

Re: Seventies Songs You Never Hear Anymore

(Lol) Ah yes, I remember The Motors' Airport very well. Evokes vivid images of 1978. Another few songs that stick in my mind from that year too are:

1. London Town - Paul McCartney and Wings
2. One For You, One For Me - Jonathan King (remember the purple hair?)
3. Darlin' - Frankie Miller
4. 5705 - City Boy
5. I Love The Sound of Breaking Glass - Nick Lowe
6. Giving Up, Giving In - The Three Degrees
7. Brand New Day - Lindisfarne (the expected Christmas hit which, unfortunately, never happened)
8. Dance With Me - Peter Brown
9. It Sure Brings Out The Love In Your Eyes - David Soul
10. Life's Been Good - Joe Walsh

Re: Seventies Songs You Never Hear Anymore

I would have mentioned this song yearlier if I had remembered it

Airport-Motor 1978 heard it on the radio yesterday morning after 35 years

I remember this being shown on TOTP2 at least once.

I know. The Glitter Band made some crackers too, like Let's Get Together Again and Just For You. Sad that Gerry Shepherd passed away, as I thought he had a tremendous voice.
