Streaming music as I work and this song popped up. Been many years since I've heard it last but loved it growing up. One of Paul's best. I love the line in the song "I never thought to ask her what the letter G stood for, but I know it wasn't good"!
Sally G.....enjoy.

Don’t forget Jim Staffords Wildwood Weed!
I Cheat The Hangman is another great Doobies song that never got the recognition it should have.
Zappa - Dupree’s Paradise (With Jean Luc-Ponty)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qr6mTloYJJs
Maybe the single greatest group of musicians ever assembled on one stage
Yes, that trombonist (my instrument) is a killer. Bruce Fowler.
Zappa was the real deal, no two ways about it.
Kodachrome
City of New Orleans
Doctor My Eyes
Maxine Nightingale - Right Back Where We Started From

Mostly because it reminds me of a certain movie about Hockey
After I was divorced in 2001, I started taking dance lessons and became quite good. Never had a problem with women accepting requests for a dance.
However, if a guy is a good hustle dancer, women will pretty much line up for a hustle dance.
If you like Maudlin, here is one.
The Marmalade - Reflections of My Life - Vietnam Vets

Settle down tiger. Your list is incomplete and easily dismissed as you forgot The Streak and Wildwood Weed <;-}

I never knew it had anything to do with Vietnam.
It wasn't as obvious as The Green Berets, by SSgt Barry Sadler, or Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town, by Kenny Rogers and The First Edition.
You’re riding through a desert on a horse for what? Nine days? You don’t have time to name the flippin horse?!
But seriously, good song and yeah, that lyric is pretty bad.
I liked the song also, it is from 1969.
I don’t know for sure but I think someone may have put that Vietnam War video to it on their own, if so, they did a fine job.
Donovan - To Susan on the West Coast waiting

Here is a Donovan that would surprise most people
Donovan Remember the Alamo

I was born in 1970, so most of my appreciation for 70s music has come from listening to it later on as an adult, but one song I remember really liking as a kid was Bad Bad Leroy Brown by Jim Croce. I still like it now, but I think I liked it at the time mainly because I could sing it and my parents would let me get away with swearing. “Baddest man in the whole damn town”
Oh yeah! Hot Chocolate, lots of great dance hits. My favorite was Every 1’s a Winner. Earth, Wind & Fire, too, Let’s Groove. And Disco Inferno (Burn Baby Burn). And... Good Times, Celebrate, Dazz (Disco Jazz), Funky Town, Let The Music Play, Fever. Great soul from that time, AL Green, Stylistics, Marvin Gaye, O’Jays, Curtis Mayfield, Timmy Thomas...
Then on the Rock side was lots of great Steely Dan, Ricky Don’t Lose That Number, Doobies’ Black Water, the whole southern boogie thing with the Allman Brothers, Outlaws, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker, Blackstone. And the Eagles, America, Gordon Lightfoot. I thought the 70s had such great music, I could go on and on.
Donovan had Sue Lyon (Stanley Kubrick’s Lolita) for a girlfriend, but she dumped him when he gave her LSD without her knowledge or permission. Pretty dumb.
You've got a brand new key...
Trick question, no such songs exist from the 70s.
