Worst Music of All-Time

SKY ROCKETS IN FLIGHT!

Thecommodore Do you mean "Afternoon Delight" by ? can't remember who but they also did "Hitchin a Ride" I loved those tunes with a "hook"!

Is it Vanity Fair?

Tubegroover, I did not like the song, nor did I know the answer or the history. What follows is copied and pasted from our friends at AMG. Hope this clears it all up. Starland Vocal Band dominated American airwaves during the Bicentennial summer of 1976 with their quintessential soft rock chart-topper "Afternoon Delight." The group emerged from the Washington, D.C. folk scene of the late 1960s, its roots dating back to the formation of the acoustic duo Fat City, which comprised future husband and wife Bill Danoff and Taffy Nivert. Together the couple wrote a song titled "I Guess He'd Rather Be in Colorado" which was recorded by John Denver and Mary Travers; with Denver, they also penned the smash "Take Me Home, Country Roads." In 1969 Fat City recorded their debut LP, Reincarnation; after 1971's Welcome to Fat City the duo began working as simply Bill and Taffy, regularly opening for Denver on tour.

Well Albert thanks for all the details I'll certainly remember next time I'm playing music trivia. I'm sure all the "Fat City" and Bill & Taffy fans out there in Audiogon land will welcome it, just kidding but I couldn't resist. I always did get Starland Vocal Band mixed up with Vanity Fair they both had that same breezy soft summer pop sound. When you said the year I then remembered Vanity Fair was late 60's & early 70's with "Hitchin a Ride" and a few others long forgotten except to those still clamoring for the stations that still play it.
