This song was written and originally recorded by country singer Rodney Crowell, but the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (by that time recording as just “The Dirt Band”) released it at the end of 1979 and built an album around it. While the song just did okay on the country charts (#58), it did even better on the pop charts (#13). Since I already tipped you ...
Honestly, I’m not a big Bob Seger fan, but I love this song. I’m even less of an Eagles fan, but their backup vocals really make this work. Seger had written the song for an earlier album but never finished recording it, and it had been written but never finished even earlier than that, in 1971. He finally finished it in 1979, and in 1980 it peaked...
This might be the one song on the list that doesn’t pop right into your head when you hear its name now, but it was popular back in the day. It was written and recorded by John Stewart, who had become famous as a member of the Kingston Trio in the 1960s, and had written “Daydream Believer” for the Monkees. For his album Bombs Away Dream Babieshe en...
Walter Egan has just one Top 40 hit, and this was it. It was a big one though, and though it’s more his song than Nicks’ (unlike “Gold”), Nicks’ voice is unmistakable. She wasn’t there alone though: while Nicks does the high harmonies, Lindsey Buckingham does the low, and singer Annie McLoone handles the middle harmonies. It’s one of the finest son...
Chicago is one of those groups you generally either really like or you really don’t, largely because of the transition they made to softer rock in the mid-70s. By the time they recorded this song in 1974 they had moved away from some of the edgier sounds of their early music (think “Make Me Smile and “25 or 6 to 4”) and were moving firmly into the ...
Neil Young’s only #1 single was a great song from a greater album, Harvest.Linda Ronstadt (who as this list illustrates apparently sang backup for a lot of her friends) and James Taylor sang backup, and as is almost always the case Ronstadt’s vocals come through loud and clear. That’s not to knock Taylor, because his vocals are superb as well, thou...
To round out today’s countdown I offer one of the most enigmatic songs ever recorded, the song that’s probably about Warren-Beatty-and-two-other-men-we-aren’t-sure-about. What we are sure of is that Mick Jagger is one of the backup singers, and his voice becomes more and more prominent as the song goes on. Simon later said it was just happenstance ...
