Notes:  The seventies were hard on all of us, just look at the suit he's wearing on the back cover. What were we thinking people? Fashion sense aside this remains a very listenable album. Of course the title song is ingrained into our brains from the massive airplay it received when first released, but the rest of the record comes through with pleasant instrumentation and vocals. And it's got a right catchy cover too.
