Super Saturday, Armed Forces Version 7

We're falling into a routine here on these records. Couple of country artists on one side, big name pop artist on the flip. Well, I say pop. Popular music was all over the place in 1973. I don't think it would have been weird to hear Ray Conniff alongside The Doors or a solo track from one of The Beatles on the radio at the time. The market wasn't as segmented as it would become. Probably a lot fewer stations so everything had to share a limited space. These days there are more stations (or channels these days) than you can shake a stick at, so everything can be fitted into it's own lane and Metallica will never have to rub elbows with Lady Gaga. Well, there are always awards shows...  Anyhow, the share of the moment is An Old Fashioned Christmas (US Air Force Recruiting Service Directorate Of Advertising, No Number, Stereo, 1973). When did I first share this? 2007, look like. That's a long time ago, the thrid year of this blog.
