We have '70s for you this week. Our playlist goes through the year 1976, after which we get a little nervous about lazy drum machines and excessively flared trousers. We got reckless alcoholics, messy worlds, All-Star Oakland A's pitchers, a slightly more responsible alcoholic, pander men, actuaries, and assorted other characters and trends.
