Professor Of Rock has released the video below, along with the following introduction…
“Coming up next, we’re firing up the time machine and heading to an iconic year in the 70s… can you guess it? It was the year Hank Aaron broke Babe Ruth’s home run record and Muhammad Ali stunned George Foreman in the Rumble In The Jungle. And in music, it was a pummeling, too. One song came when a future rock star Donal Fagen hit on the wife of one of his college professors when she was pregnant. Then there’s the all-time classic, ‘Piano Man’, everyone sings along to, but Billy Joel was embarrassed by it; he only made a couple of grand from it. Then there’s Randy Bachman, who wrote ‘Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet’ as a joke to make fun of his brother’s speech impediment, and it hit #1 in 22 countries. And then there’s Steve Miller, who ripped off a lyric from an oldies song, but misheard it and has been singing the wrong word for 50-plus years… one that doesn’t exist in the English language. It was a fabulous year in music, and we’re counting ’em down NEXT on Professor of Rock!”
