Old Man Yells at Music

This time Roger goes back to a time when he was about a month away from starting kindergarten. While a shark gobbled up moviegoers' dollars, radios were playing songs about a nobody dreaming of a glittery future, the danger of firearms (by a band from the American South, no less), blabbermouth vegetation, a horse that definitely did have a name, sexy furniture, tropical vacation fantasies, and a mispronounced word made famous by TV. So join the Old Man as he sorts all of it out and gives his semi-informed opinions on the hits from the middle of the summer of '75. It will not be a wasted hour.

This time Roger travels back to those simpler days when 25 years on the British throne was seen as an impressive accomplishment and we were in the final days of people finding words like "lightsaber" and "Wookiee" kind of odd. On the charts, you had some Caribbean calypso via South America and the Netherlands, a yacht rocker initiating the "relationship talk," a lady questioning her soon-to-be-ex-roomie's questionable baked goods habits, a gentleman having dream sex with his future, disco dancing danger, a song inspired by nudity that inspired puppetry, and a dude who won't touch a potential one-night-stand because he knows where she's been. And more. So grab your things and let this episode take you home.
