I love a lot of those songs, just reading through the list brought back so many memories. I didnt know the Al Stewart song spent so many weeks at number one. That was a good song, but I think I liked Year of the Cat better.

Year of the Cat is Al's best song IMO but Time Passages is a good song too.

I also love a lot of these songs. Quite a few 70's easy listening tunes are on my iPod. They just make you feel good while hearing them.
