Number one songs from 1974
LISTEN TO PODCAST NOW
It’s almost the end of the year. And as has become tradition on our show, at this time of year we look back to the songs that made it to the top of the charts 50 years ago. This year, that means the tracks we play on this weeks show are all number one hits from 1974. Not all of them were number one in America, or on the pop charts – they may have been number one in Australia, or the UK, or on the R&B charts. But they all made it to the top of the list on some chart, somewhere in the world.
