It’s Friday and that means it’s time to deliver another reminder of how good the music was in the “good old days” of rock ‘n’ roll! Today you’re getting a look back at three very special years in three very special decades.
At the bottom, there’s the #1 song in America on this date in 1976. I’m sure Wendy Plante will appreciate it. 🙂

Hey Wendy! …42 years ago today
This was the #1 song in America!
Happy to see you post occasional medleys again. Doing morning chores & drinking coffee to great music makes me happy. My favorite was of course ’62, when I was 16 with hardly a care in the world.
Pat, I went way back today and one of the reasons was YOU because I know how much you enjoy those years. 🙂
Aw, Gee whiz, thanks for thinking of me, Ray.
Always, Pat 🙂
great songs Ray… although I will say Disco Duck was pretty funny back then and still is even though I never really cared for disco …. LOL
Thank you, Penny. I had to include Disco Duck for my daughter. She was 5 when the song came out and she loved it!
