I usually can't stand those "Old Navy" clothing store commercials, but I did quite enjoy the latest one where they used 70's stars to dance to it. ;D Watching them all doing The Hustle brought back some "warm fuzzies" (memories).

Good Pick!.
Jackie Blue - Ozark Mountain Daredevils (1975, from a 1974 album)

You know what I hate?  >:(
Is when they play the short (AM-friendly) version of that song and leave out...

"Every day in your indigo eyes
I watch the sun set but I don`t see it rise
Your lightning, stars, and your strawberry wine
You take the world but you won`t take the time"


:D

"Summertime" by War is a great summer song, but it came out in '76.

Why Can't We Be Friends - War
Mexico - James Taylor
I Love Music - O'Jays
Wildfire - Michael Martin Murphy  <== Some people really hate this one, but I like it.  :)
Carolina in the Pines - Michael Martin Murphy
Wake Up Everybody - Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes
Lovin' You - Minnie Riperton  <== Some people really hate this one, but I like it.  :)
It's Magic - Pilot
For the Love of You - Isley Brothers
Who Loves You - Four Seasons  <= remember their thumpin' disco song?  8)
Old Days - Chicago
I'm not In Love - 10cc

That's all the good ones I can think of for now!

;D
