    Hmmmm....Nope. Totally blew that one.

    And From Wikipedia, it WAS a Billboards top 100 (Made it to number 2 actually):

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wre...und_Fitzgerald

    "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" is a song written, composed, and performed by Gordon Lightfoot in commemoration of the sinking of the bulk carrier S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald on Lake Superior on November 10, 1975. It was inspired by the Newsweek article on the event, "The Cruelest Month," which appeared in the issue of November 24, 1975. The song originally appeared on Lightfoot's 1976 album, Summertime Dream, and was later released as a single. The single reached #2 on the Billboard pop charts in November 1976, making it Lightfoot's second most successful (in terms of chart position) single, with "Sundown" reaching number one in 1974. One unusual aspect of the song is that it is written in Dorian mode.

    OK, been long enough with no correct guess. The answer is:

    Ride Captain Ride by Blues Image

    So here is the next one, I think this should be a bit easier...

    "They were funky China men from funky Chinatown
    They were chopping them up and they were chopping them down
    It's an ancient Chinese art and everybody knew their part
    From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip"

    Teeeheeee . . . I just heard this song a couple hours ago at work on an Oldies Station . . . (and yes, I'm old . . . almost! )

    "Everybody was Kung-Fu Fighting
    Those cats were fast as lightning
    In fact it was a little bit frightening
    But they did it with expert timing"

    Carl Douglass - circa 1974

    One's worth is not measured by stature, alone. By heart and honor is One's true value weighed.
