@yourmusiceducationReplying to @timetravelingnerd 1974 was so bad it’s good, man! Three of the Beatles had #1 songs (four if you include Billy Preston). Band on the Run was the most memorable of those three. John Denver was the only act with two chart toppers that year, including his first ever number one. Other first-timers included Steve Miller Band, Barbra Streisand, Gordon Lightfoot, Eric Clapton, Barry White, Olivia Newton-John, Dionne Warwick, Harry Chaplin, and John Lennon (shockingly Imagine never hit #1. Whether you credit Love’s Theme or Rock the Boat as the first disco song, they both held the number one in 1974. The year had 35 songs reach number one, which does not include Time in a Bottle that topped the chart for two weeks beginning December 29, 1973. #musichistory #learnontiktok #music #oldschool #yourmusiceducation #nostalgia #throwback #70smusic #worstyear #1974 #jimcroce #stevemillerband #alwilson #ringostarr #thebeatles #barbrastreisand #loveunlimited #terryjacks #cher #johndenver #blueswede #eltonjohn #mfsb #thethreedegrees #grandfunkrailroad #raystevens #paulmccartney #paulmccartneyandwings #bodonaldsonandtheheywoods #gordonlightfoot #thehuescorporation #disco #georgemccrae #robertaflack #paperlace #paulanka #odiacoates #ericclapton #barrywhite #andykim #olivianewtonjohn #billypreston #dionnewarwick #thespinners #steviewonder #bachmanturneroverdrive #johnlennon #billyswan #carldouglas #harrychapin #helenreddy #thejoker #thewaywewere #bennieandthejets #bandontherun #rocktheboat #cantgetenoughofyourlovebaby #youaintseennothingyet #kungfu #catsinthecradle
