My dad turned me on to America back in the 70s. They were all over the radio back then.

I don't know how I did it, but back during the 80s I convinced a cover band into doing that particular song. Somewhere doing the course of performing the song (in this hole in the wall biker bar) while I was walking across the stage I tripped on one of the countless speaker and mic chords running all across the floor. And evidently it looked pretty gay to the audience watching. Because, during our next 15 minute break a couple people from the audience suggested we should drop the song from our set list.

I guess I should have been embarrassed, but I wasn't.
