Vicki Lawrence of “The Carol Burnett Show” was briefly married to songwriter Bobby Russell in this era, and this was their big hit together. Due to poor production, it was difficult to follow the lyrics and figure out the storyline, so I found a video with the lyrics. Now I understand who killed whom! It came in at #2 this week.

Vicki Lawrence; “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia”

Tony Orlando had first gained the charts in 1961 with a song that is pretty much forgotten today. He had spent the Sixties as a record executive with CBS and returned to singing in 1970 backed up by some female singers. Due to the terms of his CBS contract, Orlando could not use his name on the recordings, so they were released under the name “Dawn” – until Orlando found out that there were no fewer than six other groups using that name. When Orlando got his TV show, the background singers discovered that Tony had been grossly underpaying them for years, and they fixed that problem in a hurry. It came in at #1 this week.

Dawn: “Tie a Yellow Ribbon ‘Round the Old Oak Tree”

And so we end one week of music history 40 years ago. See you tomorrow night! Cue the Rockumentary theme!

San Remo Golden Strings: “Festival Time”

FINALLY....I made it home. Did you ever get stuck behind someone at the store who is trying to buy more than they have money for?

The poor checker had to back out, and back out, and back out.
Then she tried to use a card....she tried, the checker tried, she tried. So she said forget it. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Oh...that’s frustrating & sad!

A few years ago I was in line at the store behind a gentlemen wearing a vet’s hat. He was complaining about the price of a small desert item.

I offered to pay for it & the transaction was completed.

When I walked out to the parking lot he drove off in a brand new Lexus.

Not indicative but it was a funny experience!:)

Had to stop & listen to Superfly....Funkalicious! ;-}
