Here's another segment: 30. "Get Closer" - Seals & Crofts – Quintessential 70s sound to me.
29. “Baby I Love Your Way” – Peter Frampton- The whole Frampton Comes Alive album was huge in our house.
28. "Show Me The Way" - Peter Frampton – see above
27. "Welcome Back" - John Sebastian – I loved this song as much as I loved the tv show it was a theme for. The lyrics capture the sentiment perfectly.
26. “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" - Leo Sayer – So many good memories associated with Sayer’s songs from this period
25. "Beth" – Kiss – the softer side of KISS. I still know all of the words to this one.
24. "Shower The People" - James Taylor – One of the albums on 8 track that my dad had with him when we lived in Morocco was the album In The Pocket so a lot of good memories are associated with the songs off that album.
23. "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" - Lou Rawls – A favorite of my grandma’s. I still really like this tune today. “…I’m not braggin’ on myself baby…”
22. Let 'Em In" – Wings – A great tune. Love the little “sound effects” on this one. Another album that was played a bunch in my house.
21. “Don’t Be Sad When Your Sun Is Down” – James Taylor – see above JT comments.

30. "Get Closer" - Seals & Crofts – OK, but S&C never really excited me.
29. “Baby I Love Your Way” – Peter Frampton- Again, I thought Peter was OK, but never went crazy over any of his songs. This one was probably the best, however.
28. "Show Me The Way" - Peter Frampton – see above except for the last sentence.
27. "Welcome Back" - John Sebastian – You echo my feelings exactly
26. “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" - Leo Sayer – This was OK. I like When I Need You a whole lot more.
25. "Beth" – Kiss – Pleasant enough song, if you don't listen to the lyrics. The guy is saying that he would rather play music than be with his wife/girlfriend/S.O. , and it seems that its been going on awhile. It's not a happy song.
24. "Shower The People" - James Taylor – Not bad, except that I can't stand the pronunciation: "Shower Thee People"
23. "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" - Lou Rawls – Great voice
22. Let 'Em In" – Wings – Paul is always so versatile. So many different styles. Good song.
21. “Don’t Be Sad When Your Sun Is Down” – James Taylor – Don't think I know this one.

30. "Get Closer" - Seals & Crofts I've always liked this - it brings back a lot of memories of that summer.
29. “Baby I Love Your Way” – Peter Frampton Definitely a classic. It gets a lot of play, but still sounds great.
28. "Show Me The Way" - Peter Frampton My favorite from Comes Alive.
27. "Welcome Back" - John Sebastian This has always been a favorite of mine. John was the perfect choice to write the theme - he gives the song just the right quality for the show.
26. “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" - Leo Sayer Another favorite of mine - I still have the 45 of it I got in '76.
25. "Beth" – Kiss Very different from their other material at the time. Nice melody and arrangement.
24. "Shower The People" - James Taylor One of my favorites from James.
23. "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" - Lou Rawls Love this! More great memories from that summer.
22. Let 'Em In" – Wings I remember hearing this a lot back then. One of Paul's best.
21. “Don’t Be Sad When Your Sun Is Down” - James Taylor I don't think I've heard this, but I'm generally a big fan of James' music.

30. Very pleasant memories of hearing this back in the 70's
29.I still love the album - so good! The daughter that lived next - door to me growing up had the album.
28.It takes me right back as soon as I hear the first few bars.
27.I bought the 45 that summer and I must have played it when I got it home about twenty times in a row LOL it's still a great tune.
26 - I remember hearing his music at our local fair that year blasting from a few of the rides.
25.I had just heard them for the first time earlier in 76 and was hooked right away. I bought the 45 as soon as it was released.
24.My oldest brother had the album on vinyl - this is one of my very favorites track from James.
23.Don't recall hearing this then but I also think he has a great voice.
22.Another 45 I added to the collection that year - Woo Hoo!
21.Don't remember this one - I'd have to hear it:)

Get Closer - S&C did better, but this one was ok Baby I Love Your Way & Show Me the Way - Frampton Comes Alive was such a huge album. Show Me the Way was one of my favorites for the year. Welcome Back - Great song, Great TV show You Make Me Feel Like Dancing - I've got Leo Sayers greatest hits on vinyl, but it's been years since I've listen to it. Beth & Shower the People - Don't remember them You'll Never Find Another Love - great song, love the voice. Let 'em In - Another McCartney classic Don't Be So Sad When the Sun is Down - Don't know it.

Get Closer--Pretty good song. Lotsa S&G memories for me from back then. Baby I Love Your Way--Never big on Frampton. Couldn't quite understand what all the fuss was about.
Show Me The Way--More Frampton I'm not crazy about.
Welcome Back--Watched the show religiously. Good theme song.
You Make Me Feel Like Dancing--Just heard this on the radio the other day and I was instantly transported back to my childhood.
Beth--Always liked this one.
Shower The People--Love James Taylor. Love this song.
You'll Never Find...It's ok. Not a big Lou Rawls fan.
Let 'Em In--Nice memories of this, too.
Don't Be Sad When Your Sun is Down--Not ringing any bells.

21. “Don’t Be Sad When Your Sun Is Down” – James Taylor – Don't think I know this one. Stevie Wonder plays harmonica on this track. Really nice.

Ok, a little better. 30. A great one. Love the singing in the background. 29. Sick of his hits, love his not heard stuff. 28. See above. 27. Nice enough, I guess. 26. A great one! I need his Greatest Hits. 25. Nice, but nowhere near as good as Hard Luck Woman. 24. A very nice song. 23. Although not my style, I like this one! 22. My grandma has a doorbell that does that intro! 21. Never heard this one!
