This week ending June 12, 1976 American Top 40 with Casey Kasem Sirius-XM
Rhiannon (Will you ever win) hits its peak at #11. Its funny the record company must of thought the name Rhiannon was going to be weird so they added "Will you ever win" on the 45 single and on the charts. Post 1976 I dont think anyone referred to it as Will You Ever Win again. The album Fleetwood Mac hanging low in the top 10 at #8. In 3 months Say You Love Me would drag the album to #1 removing Frampton Comes Alive from the top place. The Rolling Stones "Fool to Cry" kept Rhiannon from #10. 2 sitcom themes on the charts: Happy Days was in top 10 and Welcome Back Kotter theme was climbing just behind Rhiannon. Silly Love Songs by Wings was #1 and the Rolling Stones album Black and Blue was #1

When I was looking at the 1976 charts today so interesting. Back in those days there were hardly any videos and unless the artist put them on the album cover you never knew what they looked like. Fleetwood Mac was out for 14 months before hitting #1. That would never happen today. Peter Frampton Comes Alive was #1 for 3 different times in 1976. It jumped right back to #1 after Fleetwood Mac's one week. Once Stevie Wonder released Songs In The Key of Life in early October it was #1 the rest of the year.

What a year for music. The artists that had #1 albums in 1976: Chicago, The Eagles, Peter Frampton, Led Zeppelin, Paul McCartney and Wings, Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Wonder
