“If you lived through the 70’s, you know this song. It seemed like they played “Poetry Man” every 5 minutes on the radio for years.”
At one time, back in the 70’s when car radios had push buttons, I held the world record for channel change (2.7 nanoseconds). I credit this song with helping me set that record!

This song and "Cats in the Cradle" by Harry Chapin were instrumental in my being a Steely Dan fan. At least you knew that you may here one of their songs a week. But some of those songs back then got so tight airplay that if you got stuck on one top 40 station while working or in a store, you would have episodes of Deja Vu every 70 minutes.
