Michael Bublé’s rendition of the classic Doc Pomus / Mort Shuman composition, “Save the Last Dance for Me” holds a special place in my heart.

If you were a teenager in late 1960s, it’s a good bet that the first time you danced slow and close, your soundtrack was The Association.

The genesis of The Carpenters’ “Goodbye to Love” is the stuff of legend. Tony Peluso’s guitar solo kicks it up to iconic status.

While “Touch Me” remains my all time favorite Doors Tune, some critics considered it a sell-out. I think it’s their best work.

The backstory of B.J. Thomas’ 1972 Top 20 hit, “Rock and Roll Lullaby”, is one of serendipity and how all the elements can converge to create a classic.

A sequel is almost never as good as the original. Petula Clark’s “I Know a Place,” the follow up to her smash international debut, “Downtown”, broke the rule.
