Beatles farewell hits, Carpenters intro hits got my vote.
Green Eyed Lady-nice guitar and also sounds like Guess Who, who also got my vote.
In the Summertime is a good song.
Eddie Holman got my vote and that is it.
Though George Harrison's "Isn't It A Pity" wasn't the "a' side (My Sweet Lord was) , it's still my favorite song on his 1970 lp All Things Must Pass.
"When they lay me down to die, going up to the Spirit in the Sky."
I saw Sugarloaf at a 3.2 club in the Denver area, June of '71. GREAT SHOW! Was promoting their 2nd lp Spaceship Earth. Did a 20 minute medley on "Green Eyed Lady/Chest Fever."
Melanie's "Lay Down (Candles In The Rain.") What really gives that song extra punch is the Edwin Hawkins Singers doing back up vocals!
A song by the Canadian songwriter Gene MacLellan best known through Anne Murray's 1969 recording.
Which after appearing as an album track in mid-1969 was eventually released as a single in the summer of 1970. It went to No. 1 on both the Canadian adult contemporary and country charts.
Like every year's chart a few of the songs were first released the year before (1969)
Venus ....a local hit first in Holland, spring 1969
Raindrops ....from 1969 movie "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid"
(written by Burt Bachrach and Hal David)
No Time ....first appeared on Guess Who's LP "Canned Wheat" ...re-recorded for "American Woman" LP
Spirit In the Sky ...a track on Norman's 1969 album
Jingle Jangle is even older....1968 ...a lesser hit in USA...surprised to see it #1 in Canada in 1970!
I'm a big Carpenters fan ....they had there breakout year in 1970,
I also like their 1969 super slow version of the Beatles "Ticket To Ride".
