The band 10cc made their debut on the charts in 1973 with the song Rubber Bullets. It wasn't a big hit on Billboard, only reaching #73, but was a top ten hit in Chicago, making it to #7 on the WCFL survey.

I'd consider Will It Go Round In Circles my favorite tune from '73. Other favorites include Last Song, We're An American Band, and Show And Tell. 1973 IMO was a great year for pop-rock.
