(It probably would have been an across-the-boards #1 Hit, had they decided to release it as a single. so it had to be airplay and listener requests that propelled it up five places this week from #36 to #31. "Stairway," of course, was never released as a single. and "One Way Out" by The Allman Brothers at #33! Ranked right up there in the same breath with Bread, Neil Diamond and Tony Orlando and Dawn!!! (God, radio was SO much more interesting then!!!) Seeing these two FM Classic Rock staples chart LOWER THAN the break-in hit we just featured last week, "Convention '72" by The Delegates, is an absolute hoot! īut check out "Stairway To Heaven" by Led Zeppelin at #31. There really aren't any huge surprises anywhere in this week's Top 30 list. although it DID rise to #19 in Record World.) but nationally it crapped out at #27 in Billboard. (This one got a ton of airplay here on WBBM-FM during their short-lived foray into Top 40 Music. Cashman and West topped last week's survey with "American City Suite," one of my favorite tunes from this era.
