I didn't really want to start a new thread on this especially since I don't have a question or a lot to say about it but I didn't know where else to put it. I listened to this show this evening. I was unimpressed with almost all of it. However, hearing #1 and what it was made the whole show worth listening to. Now, I recommend listening to it if you have it and have never heard it or can get it.

It's a great show but there's at least one significant oversight -- "Fire" by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown fit the special's compilation criteria. But not even a mention for a song that reached #2 in 1968.

When this happens you: A.) know the shows chart relevance is worthless And in this case to justify your concern: B.) they probably forgot all about it when "ranking" songs. |

If they were to play that show today ... my gut tells me that this would be an optional extra. Probably we'd also hear a song that was just making its debut on the chart in July 1973 and would be a one-hit wonder – "Brother Louie" by Stories and, from 1972, possibly "Precious and Few" by Climax.

Judging by what I heard yesterday, if there were 3 70s shows available a week for stations to play this one still wouldn't make the cut.

Climax hit the Hot 100 a few months after P&F with Life And Breath... Nice song BTW.
Was expecting more instrumental one hit wonders on the show.
Another goodie for the 73 one could've been How Do You Do...
