Every Friday night at 10, Amber Star takes us back to a different year in music history. This time it's 1975, when Jaws was the biggest movie of the year, and we were all a little afraid to go into the water.
Another big movie to come out that year was One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest starring Jack Nicholson. On TV, Saturday Night Live was brand new, as were Welcome Back, Kotter and Starsky and Hutch. Rich Man, Poor Man was a popular TV mini-series. And you had to wait to watch new episodes. Binging wasn't invented yet, and VCRs were still a few years away.
Popular toys in 1975 included Pong, pet rocks, and Six Million Dollar Man toys. Remember Steve Austin with kung fu grip?
What songs were popular in 1975? Tune in Friday to find out.
The Friday Night Flashback is thanks to Funk's Pub in Fitchburg. Feel the vibe.
