Did I ever tell you guys that the first time I saw them, I disliked them? I thought they were scruffy and druggy and looked like hard rock onstage. This was in 1976 in Los Angeles. In 1975, I was still a very avid pop music fan and was probably still listening to AM radio (Elton John, Seals & Crofts, Wings, KC and the Sunshine Band, Tavares, Spinners, Rose Royce). But I kind of liked Say You Love Me and Rhiannon on album, which didn’t sound much like the hippies playing live. It took me an Iowa minute to fall in love with them — it was probably when Go Your Own Way got airplay.
