Comment:

A stern lecture never sounded so good as the one delivered by velvet-voiced soul man Lou Rawls on “You’ll Never Find Another Love Like Mine.” After all, when it comes to ’70s soft hits, even downers arrive in desirable packages — just ask Marilyn McCoo, who tries to look on the bright side in the 5th Dimension’s brokenhearted ballad “One Less Bell to Answer.” Luckily, things are looking up for ’70s novelty king Ray Stevens as he takes a moment to give thanks on his open-hearted ode “Everything Is Beautiful,” while ramblin’ boy Dave Loggins can’t resist the call to come home on the sweet plea “Please Come to Boston.”
