This seems so totally in the wrong thread...but the film and album were released in 1970....

The Brothers Johnson:

and a personal favorite-hard to believe they hated each other, there's so much chemistry:

I suck at these embed things. Sorry, I'm a backwards child of the 70s.

^[/yt] and [yt] (in reverse order) are your friends....

The location is no state secret in these parts, but for 13 years I lived on the same block as Carole King's family's summer house. In fact, the street I lived on was named after her--not because she was a celebrity, but because all of the streets in the community were named after the children of community founders (e.g., Carol Street, her birth name being Carol Klein).

The Ziggy Stardustery of Bowie

It was truly of a time of boundlessness. Shit was all over the place, & folks had no qualms about letting their freak flag fly

With the age of the hippie behind, so began the age of the freak . . .

In the end, they traded their tired wings
For the resignation that living brings
And exchanged love's bright and fragile glow
For the glitter and the rouge . . .

Judging by all the gushing comments on YouTube, Livvy still has legions of adoring fans.

 

[the G-man]

after 5 pages, how come this didn't get mentioned?

[yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47Ad9_IYqlw[/yt]

Good question. I was thinking I had posted it. But I had only posted their version of "Billy Don't be a Hero."

Another incredibly horrible "classic" from the 70s. The comments indicate that "Glee" actually did a cover of this:

"Arrow Through Me", from the much maligned Back To the Egg.

OMFG...I can't believe that I or somebody else didn't think of this sooner....

Back to the subject of intra-decade covers:

^ I remember watching that, I didn't know quite what to make of it! IIRC that award show was broadcast on a Saturday afternoon where I lived.

I love Carole King, what an amazing songwriter and performer.
Here's a fun performance:

I was going to write about how odd it seems that Steely Dan had us gradeschool kids at the roller rink skating to lyrics about "The Cuervo Gold, the fine Columbian," but I guess that was from 1980. So here's this instead; Larry Carlton starts to get amazing around 2:18:

Well, if we're on the subject of soundtracks and such...I imagine I'm not the only one around these parts who used to get a little misty-eyed around 8:58 on Friday nights:

(Pay no attention to the crazy commodore in the cop uniform...or the guy who's obviously not Bill Bixby at 1:15.)
