With the exception of her lone tuffy, “Thunder and Lightning,” Chi’s LP featured only hum drum hoofers. The package did place modestly on Billboard’s top pop albums chart (#148, 1972), and “Thunder” rumbled the airwaves, but lightning did not strike twice for Chi. A second album, Let It Ride and follow up 45s like “Go Like Elijah,” “You Were My Friend,” and “Who Ever Told You” sank from sight as if with nary a spin. https://onehitwondersthebook.com/?page_id=16566

Bo used to practice in a farm house that was about a 1/4 mile from our house. Mom would hear the sound coming through the trees and call the cops. It's sad. The Heywoods were a great band, and this piece of schlock is all they're known for.
This song was being played around the north side of Cincinnati well before it became a hit. Ram Jam had its roots here.
The Buggles - Ironically (?) this was the very first video ever played on MTV when it first hit the airwaves. On a side note, Hans Zimmer is the guy on the keyboards, dressed in black, near the end of the video. Check out his Hollywood credits. He definitely was not a one-hit-wonder.
