Steve Miller Band – The Joker (1974)

Originally released in 1973, The Joker, by The Steve Miller Band topped the Billboard Hot 100, in early 1974. It later reached number one, in 1990, in the UK, because of the song was used in a TV Commercial, for Levi jeans.

Freda Payne – Band Of Gold

Dating from 1970, this song peaked at Number 1 in the UK, and Number 3 on the Billboard charts. For me, it brings back memories of the Summer of 1970, when I remember hearing it on the Waltzer ride, at the local Fun Fair, in the US this would be at the Carnival.

Thin Lizzy – Whiskey In The Jar
