Who the hoot knows this much about anything except their own personal business. However I did receive the info....
I'm 71 and I still play mostly 70s r&b in my car and on my headphones. I can't get away from my soul music!
Back in the '70's when I was in high school, I wasn't into any music except (real) classical and music I played in the marching band such as Capriccio Italien. Sorry I looked at the quiz and recognized NOTHING!
then you missed a lot i also played in the marching band concert band but i still i had an open mind and listened to every thing from mine i played like you from Gladys Knight to the opera house here in town like that other great song went .... (singing) free your mind and the rest will follow
7/10. Didn't know the birds made an unintentional contribution to Loving You...and I must admit I knew Eddie Kendricks recorded Keep On Truckin' LONG before I knew he was one of the Temptations!
I should be put in front of a firing squad.
Fun fact: of the first five Billboard #1 singles with three-letter titles(stretching almost 25 years), three had Michael Jackson as lead vocalist (ABC, Ben and Bad).
