1. Silly Love Songs gets a pass
just for the bass line.

3. Worst. McCartney. Song. Ever.

Until he hooked up with Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson, that is.

2. So many choices, but Barry Manilow
will always get my vote on a shitty song poll.

5. Remember when Barry Manilow said that
He was the most sophisticated human being on the planet?

6. Ah, *there's* Afternoon Delight!
But I vote "all" again. The mid-70s, feh! I saved so much money on LPs until New Wave took off.

7. I have about 200 LPs
Mostly from the period 1972-1981. Rather partial to progressive rock. Yes, ELO, Rush, Emerson Lake, and Palmer.

11. I think all I bought were
Roxy Music, some Genesis, Richard Thompson, and Sparks. Yes I said Sparks! lol

If you like progressive rock maybe you'll like this band. The lead guitarist sent me the link after buying something from me on eBay.

13. I have a lot of '70s music, both on vinyl and CD.

Of all of it, though, most of what I listen to from that decade now is funk, soul, and punk rock. Sometimes all in the same night!

8. I can't believe "I Write The Songs" is beating "Convoy."
Weird.
