Great stuff, wonderful interpretation of Norwegian Wood, and awesome cover of Kashmir

@missj21 I checked it out and original lead singer Russell Thompkins, Jr. is alive and well and touring with his own group. From Wikipedia: "In 2004, Thompkins, Jr. started a new group, Russell Thompkins, Jr. and the New Stylistics, with Raymond Johnson, James Ranton, and Jonathan Buckson. "

@ARLO999 dude i wish i could live my whole life in 1974. like dec 31, 1974 is followed by jan 1, 1974. (well, maybe not THAT much!)

@DanW900 $9.50 general admission. And that was a ripoff! The year before, you'd'a paid $7.00 for similar tix.

This is one of the greatest love songs EVER! Pure and simple and heartfelt, almost makes me want to cry everytime I hear it. So sad to hear that Al passed, RIP Al Wilson.

Gotta be nice for Todd to have someone else singing this song! What, what treats there are on YouTube!

Awesome stuff, when this song was out by Hall & Oates, I first thought it was a Todd song, had that "Todd-esque" quality. Then I heard that Todd produced them, and that was when their careers really took off. Man, can't believe how young these guys look! Daryl doesn't look any different than 3...

@wannawatchu66 Nah dude, "Hello It's Me" is a good tune, but badly run into the ground. This tune was a fun, springtime song in '72, and holds up much better upon repeated listenings

Thanks for posting. Saw Todd do AWATS at Akron Civic, and your seats for this show were AWESOME!

So glad William married the common girl he loved, rather than follow the royal tradition like his father and keep her just as a mistress. Had Charles the stones to stand up to his mum and marry Camilla in the first place, they might have lived happily ever after, and the world would have never m...

Chicago was such a great band when Terry Kath was still singing, before they became a Cetera-driven wimp rock band

Why is Todd Rundgren not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame? Geez, even friggin' Alice Cooper finally made it in, but Todd still waits. Multi-faceted musician, techno-wizard, top line producer -- show me another talent like Todd.

@firewolfstone yeah, and sampling proves the lack of originality and creativity of rap compared to the songs made by the artists that are sampled

Rob, this is AWESOME! I'm an old Superman fan from back in 1970, and was raised on Silver Age back issues. This is a great story, and would love to see the entire episode! I wish the AOL/Time-Warner comics division would hire you! Keep up the good work!

You can listen to this and hear for yourself how LAME the top 40 of the late 70s was compared to the early 70s.

It was great to be a teenager when Zeppelin was still cranking out EXCELLENT music like this!

@XxRightNaoxX I said "hip," brotheh, not "hip hop." Learn the difference! And it ain't Rock neither, because it ain't Led Zeppelin!

So wuzzup with the Stephen Hawking soundtrack? Couldn't you find any actual geeks to do the voiceover?

This song is a fond memory of the summer before senior year. Thanks, Gerry, for being part of the soundtrack of our lives.

Elton's band never gets enough credit for the energy they bring to songs like this. Let's hear it for Davey Johnstone, Dee Murray, and Nigel Olsson!

@Embracus you could probably make a bundle selling it on eBay

We were rewatching "The Incredibles" and just noticed that Frozone was putting on some Hai Karate during the "Where's my super suit?" segment. I busted out laughing. You had to remember the 60s to get the joke. Love those Pixar easter eggs!

Gotta love the Isleys, one of the greatest acts ever, all over the spectrum of R&B and funk styles, true talents, and an important influence on the music of the second half of the 20th century and beyond!
