Episode 75: The Week Ending April 30, 1977 Can’t Stop Dancin’ the Lido Shuffle 70's Weekly Countdown with Mark and Pete
-
- Music Commentary
Hello stranger. We’re a little late this week,
but don’t give up on us just yet. The editing process took awhile because we sometimes made mistakes and couldn’t get it right. At some point we just said we got to give it up, because every time we thought we were done, the episode kept telling us “Don’t leave me this way!” Maybe I’m amazed at how good the Billboard Top 40 songs from the week ending April 30th, 1974 were. Whether you’re a cheery baby, an old fashioned boy, a dancing queen, or a dancing man, sometimes it’s just the right time of the night to hear them.
