[@tonybates7870]

1971 was an absolutely vintage year for rock, soul, and pop.

[@ColumRogers]

Where oh where did all the good chart music go? :(

[@dontknocktherock1263]

In Simon Cowell's bank account. 😢

[@clevertrevor7360]

How good are the Delfonics !

[@Dermot2927]

Family, Medicine Head and Atomic Rooster on the same bill? Even the Whistle Test would have baulked at such a line-up!

[@mikedemike5393]

where did the music go?.......remember the day the music died.?......it died from a slow form of nostalgia......all the people longing for music from their past, drove musicians and producers to just sample from the past......and consequently no new music was created.......death by nostalgia.

Loved the ink is black, the paper is white.

[@pcno2832]

I always heard that the song was written by civil rights activists in the 1950s; Sammy Davis Jr. did a version back then. Three Dog Night had a hit in the USA with a cover of it in 1972.

[@panthonybond7557]

Cracking line up!

[@justice4allofus]

I always loved this record!

[@donlofting4268]

Delfonics 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jimmnievans7999]

Greyhound,..soft lilting music but quite a full on, belligerent message to apparently ''unite''. Such impudence! And the silent majority given no say in the matter! Shocking and despicable.

[@alanfox4172]

Where's part two? Either way nice to see a episode not seen before missed the UK gold reruns as I did not get satellite television until 2000.brillant greyhound song and the deflonics track the version I remember was the swing out sister version and another version was done by the jets as a album track they had a big hit in the eighties with crush on you.

[@Olegzyan]

The Lonely Rocker digs this kinda music!

[@millionseller001]

couldnt put it better myself,,,

[@Drblooter99]

Greyhound's Black and White vs McCartney and Wonder's Ebony and Ivory. Compare and contrast, while shedding a soft tear for impossible Utopian dreams.

[@pcno2832]

I don't have to compare long to know which one I prefer. Give the Three Dog Night version a listen some time; it's heavily influenced by this one, but I find the arrangement a little more interesting and like all of their records, the performance it very tight.

[@bryanleigh6497]

@@pcno2832 And Ebony and IVORY on your keyboard!!! Celebrating that was a bad idea!.

[@leeenglandland2978]

How ironic and advert telling me how to block adverts.

[@barbaraannecortina7899]

what the fuck happened to part 2?

[@dontknocktherock1263]

Were there no DJ links?

[@edwardshirley9314]

They's eradicated Jimmy Savile.

[@kevintrace5396]

Pity jimmy Saville was what he was cos he was quite comical as a host on top of the pops but there we go sad though
