^ Both of those country #1s can be found on a compilation that Capitol Records released in 1991 (I think) titled American Roads. It doesn't seem to be listed anywhere on Amazon; it's likely out of print. Also included are "Southern Nights" by Glen Campbell, heard up at #2 on the 4/23/77 show, "Carolina in the Pines" by Michael Martin Murphey (#22 on this weekend's XM 10/18/75 show, though the version on the compilation is the 1985 remix) and Willie Nelson's "On the Road Again" (#24 on this coming weekend's 10/18/80 show), the last song on Side 2.
