    Totally agree, late 60s to late 80s, but being a jazz fan I do agree with another in this thread that the 50s started a lot of it, but the 30s and 40s had great jazz, swing and big band. 90% of the forward progress, talent and creativity stopped almost exactly at 1990, as rap and grunge.took over. SO depressing.

    @Jay, I loved the 1970s, but I was kid too. I thought for a long time about how the world seemed so much nicer and more stable then, but I realized later that history shows the world was pretty messed up then in a lot of ways. There were horrors like famine in Africa, war in Vietnam, the Cold War, gasoline crisis, racial tension and injustice, slavery, totalitarian government oppression, the threat of nuclear war, gang violence, crime, etc. The world has never been a rose garden. My childhood was a rose garden in the 70s, but the world in general was not.

I was sold immediately with rewinding it until it lost every tone above 10kHz. The tape was gone with time but melody and few words remained in my head. Back then I didn't knew english. Thanks to Google who's algorithm recognized chirps from my head and brought me to this masterpiece. Seventies and eighties in heart forever.

    13 y/o, spring of ‘71, a big Hit in here in Scotland. I love Sally Car’s hotpants here (that’s what these shorts were called back then) reminded me of a pair of..red ‘wetlook’ hotpant dungarees I had. I saw them in a shop with mum and went on about them. She got them for me to shut me up. They were too big, but I was going to wear them when I was older. Lol! It was £4 she could’ve done without spending. I had a ‘feather haircut’ very fashionable at that time. My older brother had 2 Arthur Black shirts and a two-tone AB jumper. AB was a Glasgow shirt maker I think. The jumper shrunk in the wash so I got that. I notice there’s another girl dancing with hotpants on. This band and song brings back so much of that time for me. Some of our school teachers wore robes and we all had to at least wear the school shirt and tie - but that discipline was beginning to wane about the school uniform. Some teachers at school still wore robes. I was getting right into James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, CSNY, Judee Sill, Gerry Raffery, Gallagher & Lyle courtesy of 2 of my brothers’ influences, one of which was never in (ie at home) to listen to all the LP’s (vinyl albums) he bought. I forgotten how great this sound was in this single. Ah well..
