The Average White Band (given it's name by Bonnie Bramlett when she and they played the Eric Clapton comeback concert at London's Rainbow Theatre in 1973) was proving that Casey,Finch and War's frontman,Lee Oskar,weren't the only funky white boys around.

1975

The charts had a distinctly California flavor. You're No Good, 1964 hit for the underrated Chicago (via Mississippi)R&B shouter Betty Evert,launched Linda Ronstadt's new sound. This sound was shaped by Ronstadt's manager-producer Peter Asher and Guitarist Andrew Gold ,who played most of the instruments on the track when the studio band could't get it right.

Black Water, a salute to the Mississippi River,was originally the B side of the Doobie Brothers'Another Park,Another Sunday, but its theme and catchy a cappella section soon had southern DJs playing the other side of the single.
