I remember 'It's A Knockout' well, compulsory Friday evening viewing back in the early 70's.
We were very easily pleased back then.

Another 1970's family show with fond memories was The Generation Game, hosted by Larry Grayson, seen here introducing ABBA where they perform Thank You for the Music.

Linda was awsome. This album of hers had some Jazz heavyweights playing on it. People diss Mantovani, but if you ever check him out he came up with some classic stuff. Midnight Cowboy is a favorite.

^ I always associate Midnight Cowboy with John Barry, but I love Mantovani's version too, which I'm listening to now for the first time.

Mantovani is a bit more Orchestral. Great stuff that I overlooked for years and years.

^^ Hopefully, I'll have the first Pick of the Pops Easy Listening playlist coming up sometime tomorrow. Alright? Not 'arf!
![]() I'd love to choose Linda Lawson for the letter "L" on the A-Z playlist, but I think Julie London may just have the edge. ![]() Edited by Psychedelic Paul - November 25 2024 at 18:30 |

Timi Yuro will be an obvious pick for the letter "Y on my A-Z playlist, but I'm not sure yet about the letter "O". I just know it won't be Des O'Connor.

Two artists came from Rosemead California, where I graduated in 1975
Vicki Cardona. Her family owned a paving Company. They just named the Rosemead High School Auditorium after her a few months ago. She graduated a few years before me ... 65 I think https://youtu.be/qkOeWZOe8BU?si=Z9_fi7716jLvzYiG Also Audie Desbrow of Great White. (Long time drummer) who graduated in my Rosemead class of 75 and jammed in garages with the rest of us wannabe Rockers.

HERB ALPERT A horn player who doesn't need to blow his own trumpet. Herb Alpert is the "A" in A & M Records (alongside Jerry Moss) which was later sold to PolyGram for a cool $500 million! Herb Alpert led his band The Tijuana Brass from the early 1960's until the Rise of his solo career in the mid-1970's. Herb has the honor of being one of only two artists - alongside Barry White - to top the US Billboard Hot 100 as both an instrumentalist on "Rise" and a vocalist on Bacharach & David's romantic classic: "This Guy's in Love with You". ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Year Pos.

THE CARPENTERS Love them or loathe them, one can't deny that the Carpenters went fully prog with "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft", the most adventurous recording in their easy listening oeuvre and a paean to intergalactic contact with E.T. across the universe in a song written by the Canadian Beatles tribute band Klaatu. Listen to the sound of that Apollonian guitar played over swelling cosmic synthesized threnodies, complete with swirling violins, a pompous pipe organ, a celestial choir, classical piano and a marching band to boot! It's enough to make the likes of Yes and Genesis jealous. Charles Ives goes to Mars! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Year Pos.

The Carpenters were always a bit of a guilty pleasure for me... Karen had one of the most beautiful female voices of all time. She's up there with the likes of Annie Haslam, Dusty Springfield and Mama Cass.
I've always said that Karen's voice wraps around you like chocolate coloured velvet. From many excellent songs my top 5 would be: 1. This Masquerade 2. Calling Occupants... 3. Goodbye to Love 4. Yesterday Once More 5. Solitaire Edited by Floydoid - November 30 2024 at 11:24 |

Is it any wonder that the monkey's confused?
