Description

Dave and Milt take listeners on a nostalgic journey through the Billboard Top 10 hits from July 3, 1971. The duo discusses and critiques songs like Ringo Starr’s 'It Don’t Come Easy', The Rolling Stones' classic ‘Brown Sugar’, and The Carpenters' 'Rainy Days and Mondays', while also spotlighting tracks by Jerry Reed, James Taylor, Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose, The Raiders, and Carole King. Amidst playful banter, Milt's love-hate relationship with certain tracks and Dave's critique of James Taylor’s style surface. By the way, a robot wrote this recap. Could you tell? I bet you couldn’t. The robots are winning. Kneel before us, humans. You have no chance. Anyway, the episode teems with humorous anecdotes, fascinating trivia—including John Loudermilk's fabricated story—an AI-generated musical playdate, and even a song substitution challenge featuring The James Gang. Listeners are treated to a vibrant mix of music history, critical assessments, and engaging storytelling.Topics:00:52 Milt’s Mysterious Disappearance and Catching Up01:55 Listener Feedback and Summer Songs05:17 Time Machine: July 3rd, 197114:42 Ringo Starr's Solo Success24:28 Jerry Reed's 'When You're Hot, You're Hot'33:04 James Taylor's 'You've Got a Friend'39:44 AI and Music: A Fun Experiment42:12 Guessing the Song Lyrics43:05 Struggling with Song Recognition43:24 More Song Challenges44:46 Tough Song Lyrics45:32 Iconic Bands and Tough Lyrics47:51 Television Theme Songs48:21 Final Song Challenge49:22 Reflecting on the Challenge50:36 Discussing 'Brown Sugar'52:27 Bad Remake Alert54:19 The Want Ads01:02:14 Hamilton, Joe Frank, and Reynolds01:08:15 Rainy Days and Mondays01:16:03 Treat Her Like a Lady01:17:08 Introduction to Cornelius Brothers and Sister Rose01:17:13 The Story Behind the Band Name01:17:50 Musical Success and Disappearance01:18:23 Anchorman and the Iconic Song01:20:44 Discussing the Raiders and Native American Themes01:24:25 The Controversial Story of 'Indian Reservation'01:30:16 Carole King's 'It's Too Late'01:38:35 Recap and Reflections on the Top Songs01:54:54 Final Thoughts and Sign-Off
