Wow You guys are fantastic! This is incredible. I sent the mp3 to Rudy last night and by the next morning we have a match! Unbelievable.
Harry - you said you "Got It!" How to I get it? I guess with the album name and catalog # I can start searching. Do you have the album? Want to part with it? Just getting the name and singer is very fulfilling after all these years. Getting my hands on a good sounding copy will just be the frosting on the cake. Thanks again to all. BTW - is it just me or is that not a good how did someone say "Guilty Pleasure"?
The station I heard it on in the 70s was a suburban Chicago radio station that played easy listening and soft rock. It was called WYEN. It was 107 on the FM dial. I was in my late teens when I heard this song. As part of my research throughout the years I was trying to find old playlists from radio stations. Came up empty though. I can't get over this. It's like finding the one missing puzzle piece that the rest of the puzzle was waiting to find for about 25 years. When I was cruising around in my 64 mustang with my buddies of course we would have on the rock stations and I would play 8 tracks of the Stones or Aerosmith. But when I dropped off my last friend or I was driving around by myself I would take out my Carpenters or Burt Bacharach tapes and indulge in the "guilty pleasure" of listening to what I wanted to. Now, as I am older I am not ashamed to listen to what I like. My wife and kids have grown to accept my music. When I use my wifes car I will take out her cd of Whitesnake out of the car radio player and put in my copy of Herb Albert or Lani Hall. When she uses my car she will do the same thing. I don't think I could ever convert my wife but my kids (who are all now really young adults) now even like some of my stuff. When I am taking my olderst daughter (now 21) back to college after a school break and we are driving along time she will say "dad, put in that cd of that group with all the trumpets". I would put in Sergio Mendes and she would say "that's the one - I like that album". She likes my Bacharach CDs too. She is of course into the kids new stuff but it goes to show there is hope for the youth of America after all. Look at me - carrying on. Sorry. Thanks again everyone. I will now start my quest of finding that album.
