Love and Tears were a German band formerly known as The Blue Moons. I believe Michael Holm was the singer.

Handy Haversack:

My musical tastes were pretty undeveloped in the seventies. I can remember singing "We Will Rock You" outside my preschool, but I also thought it was about hammocks. I also wore a football helmet when Skylab fell, so I pretty much had it going on even in preschool.

edited to correct typo - Cat Stevens album is Izitso, as Krys O correctly noted

I was ages 0 to 6 in the 70s. AN early musical memory is turning the dial on my parents' console stereo and stopping in my tracks when I happened upon Aerosmith's Walk This Way. I remember my amazement grow when I discovered that the louder I turned up the stereo and the closer I put my head to the speakers the better it sounded. hahaha

Nope, not Stevie, according to John Hellier's book,"All Too Beautiful". Sounds like him for a bit, but definitely a lower register, especially for 72. I don't see anything about him on Magic Bus, but who knows. Steve did so many sessions and produced so many great tracks for other artists, could be a possibility!! Thanks all!!

I remember in second grade the whole school of kids being taken into the school gym to watch a moon landing. Looking at the list of Apollo missions, it must have been Apollo 14, January 1971.

Just got back from a little trip, with WFMU tuned in on the radio. Gotta say, EFD, quite a memory-jogging time trip you've taken us on! Thanks so much!

Watching For A Sound: Celebrating the music and productions of Mitch Easter

40 years ago next month Let’s Active played their very first show. To mark the occasion EFD is dedicating this entire show to the music and production work of the band’s now-legendary front man Mitch Easter, who helped create a new genre of Southern jangle-rock. We’ll also chat with Mitch and hear from some of his peers, collaborators, and clients!
