Rockin’ Weekend #RMF
This is the second annual Roctober Mewsic Festival hosted by Mary from Jingle Jangle Jungle and I’m happy to join along with her in the fun. I always considered myself a soft rock to middle of the road rock gal but in the last 10 years, I realized that my rock n’ roll roots lean a little heavier and harder than I first thought. This month, I’m revisiting some of the classic 70s bands that I loved as a preteen/teenager and you’re welcome to come along for the ride.
It’s the weekend and I’ve gone AWOL for the next few days but in my place, I’m leaving a short playlist of some of my favorites from the 70s. Hit play and enjoy the tunes!
My rockin’ weekend tracks include: ♥SATURDAY NIGHT Bay City Rollers ♥LADY Little River Band ♥YOU AIN’T SEEN NOTHING YET Bachman Turner Overdrive (BTO) ♥BLINDED BY THE LIGHT Manfred Mann’s Earth Band ♥LONESOME LOSER The Little River Band ♥ROCK’N ME Steve Miller Band ♥BLACK AND WHITE Three Dog Night ♥LOVE ROLLLERCOASTER Ohio Players ♥WE’RE AN AMERICAN BAND Grand Funk Railroad ♥ROCK AND ROLL LOVE LETTER Bay City Rollers
Tomorrow, I’ll be coming at you with a doubleheader mewsic lineup. Be ready to hit the dance floor with this week’s 4M theme: In honor of Columbus Day, songs about taking a journey. It can be an actual trip, or a trip into the imagination or even an emotional journey on Monday’s Mewsic Moves Me on Sunday and stepping back in time to the 70s with more Rocktober Mewsic Fest!

You got some goot juans in there, CATHY!
I especially dig BTO, MMEB, and Grand Funk’s songs! Those all rock great!
I remember after the first couple times I heard The Bay City Rollers’ song ‘Saturday Night’ on the radio (this was when it was just starting to bubble underneath the Billboard Top 40), I told a couple persons about it – how it spelled out the word “S-a-t-u-r-d-a-y” – and they wouldn’t believe me until they finally heard it for themselves. Wow! Long, long time ago!!

Super fun playlist, Cathy! All great songs that I liked as well. Looking forward to see what you chose for your #4M setlist. It’s been over a month since I put mine together, so it will be interesting to see what I’ve come up with as well 🙂

I have to admit, I was a fan of Grand Funk Railroad, Little River Band, BTO, Steve Miller Band and certainly Three Dog Night. However, Three Dog Night was the only group that I got to see in concert.
