Timothy B. Schmit (later to join the Eagles) on lead vocal and bass, Rusty Young on the pedal steel that sounds like a Hammond organ, George Grantham on drums and backing vocals, Paul Cotton playing guitar and backing vocals. Fun fact, Tim Schmit joined Poco after, you guessed it, Randy Meisner left the band after the first album.

RIP Mr Curry.
In case the above video shows as unplayable:
Uriah Heep was the loudest concert I ever attended. I’m pretty sure that’s where the tinnitus started. 2/10 would not recommend
It is simply unfeasible that EVERYONE was kung-fu fighting.
Shirley, not everybody was kung fu fighting!
"Here come The Big Boss! Let's get it on!
So the song wasn't lying. Everybody was kung fu fighting.
I want deranged-blonde-lady-in-the-kung-fu-fighting-video drugs.
Such a great song. Taps into the zeitgeist at the time. Kung Fu with David Carradine was on TV. Bruce Lee movies were showing in theaters. There was even a popular aftershave called “Hai Karate”.
Read a funny article about Boston. There was no band Boston. It was Tom Scholz in his basement. After selling the demo tape to a record company he had to invent a band because the record company expected a band. And they demanded to remaster with a professional producer. But Scholz had his equipment in his basement and didn't know anything about a professional studio. So they hired him a producer and he ignored it and worked by himself in his basement.
Oh no, maybe I'm crazy. Maybe I downloaded some mix, but I swear I'd never heard any of it before.
My OG Xbox didn't have any music included, but maybe certain special editions did?
I know it was in Guitar Hero on the 360, though.
I have no idea why, but I know this song because of some built-in music library from one of the Xboxes. The OG, I think?
RIP Neil Sedaka 2026
I like this song of his the best, based on the vocal performance, lyrics, and also I'm a sucker for playing card themes.
It was debatable between this and the more upbeat "Laughter In The Rain" to represent his 70s hits.
This is live. No lip syncing. No autotune.
And she could play the hell out of the drums at the same time.
Today I'm learning!
Such an amazing voice. And she could play the hell out of the drums at the same time.

Fun fact (to those who didn't already know): Carol Karen Carpenter was a phenomenal drummer.
Edit: fixed uncaught autocorrect error.
This is the only song I can think of that's basically a character in a movie. So well done.
Goddamn not got to go watch Smoky and the Bandit.
