Greenbaum due to poor choices, ended up working as a cook in a restaurant and got "fired" by his boss after calls came in to the restaurant from reporters asking him about the popularity of the song after another version of it went to #1.

Spirit in the Sky is the #1 one-hit wonder ofthe 1970s? I thought that was Stairway to Heaven? (Laughs at Zeppelin fans, then ducks for cover.)

(Just kidding: Immigrant Song rocks. Sorta like Kashmir.)

The “greatest”? Now that’s a laugh.

The rest of the album that song was on DID really suck though.

Sorry, the greatest one hit wonder of that era is In a gadda davida by Iron Butterfly (the long version).
