In 1972 were you one of all the young dudes that acted like crazy horses? Looking around, it seems like it’s starting all over again. If the youth of today wish to use me as an example, all I can say is don’t do it. If you don’t know me now, there used to be a light of thunder and lightning behind this funny face. Alas, as we listen to the music from the Billboard Top 40 from the week of November 11, 1972, I can see clearly now that I believe in music.
