This collection of No.1 hits from 1977 the year Star Wars was the biggest box office hit of the year. 3's Company premiered on TV. Jimmy Carter becomes the 39th President. The VCR was the year's top seller. Bill Murray joins SNL,Charlie Chaplin, Bing Crosby, Groucho Marx, & Elvis Presley dies. & Liv Tyler was born that year.

Where`s ELO?

@sneeyize45 Nevermind--the Cars never reached number one. Shoulda though.
-
Styx went to number one with "Babe."
-
@sneeyize45 Both Styx ("Babe") and the Cars ("You Might Think:") had number one hits as well.
-
REO had two #1s in the '80s: "Keep On Lovin' You" in '81 and "I Can't Fight This Feeling" in '85

@rmar67 And unfortunately that was Foreigner's only #1 tune. Disco's (and later New Wave dance tunes) ruling the top of the charts during this time really undercut a lot of other deserving bands and artists. Journey, Styx & REO Speedwagon would never reach #1, neither would Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and The Cars (to name a few) which just seemed plain odd.

pretty decent year for pop...77 was my first big year for music(I was 10)..:)
So was Stevie Wonder's "Songs in the Key of Life".

The Emotions tore it up in '77, Their Rejoice Album is a Masterwork of R/B&POP.
