This was the song that played incessantly in the summer of 1976. I remember turning it off by switching radio stations. It’s not Paul McCartney that I objected to, au contraire, I am and was a Wings fan. In fact “Band on the Run” is arguably one of my favorite albums.

No I think it was my age, I was 17 and romantic songs weren’t cool compared to songs by Thin Lizzy or Aerosmith.  Songs like “The Boys are back in Town” or “Toys In the Attic“.

So here I am three decades later, touting “Silly Love Songs” and wishing mushy romance to other reformed macho types. 

Can you remember your favorite music from days gone by? Have your tastes in music changed?
