https://disasteroushistory.blogspot.com/2015/02/stratton-nebraska-church-bustrain-crash.html
Sunday, February 8, 2015. Stratton Nebraska Church Bus/train crash. Stratton Nebraska Train/Church Bus crash. The tragic and entirely inexcusable bus/train crash at Spring City, though it was far. Worst train/school-bus crash, was the one that woke. America up and pointed out how vulnerable their kids were when riding a school bus. Laws had been passed in other states addressing the issue of stopping at rail crossings (And it still. Boggles the mind that such a law even needed. While federally mandated l...

Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did!!!: February 2015
http://tanksseventiesmusicblog.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did! Saturday, February 28, 2015. Believe it's time for some more. One Hit Wonders. We're heading back to 1975. The year 'The Jeffersons', 'Barney Miller', and, most importantly, 'Saturday Night Live' premiered on TV. The year that the very first predecessor to the PC, the Altair 8800 microcomputer was released, boasting about 1/10. Cold mornings at school bus stops. The Boston Red Sox beat the Cincinnati Reds with a 12. Singing along with it. It's been called 'Th...

Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did!!!: Yo-Yo By The Osmonds
http://tanksseventiesmusicblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/yo-yo-by-osmonds.html
Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did! Monday, August 10, 2015. Yo-Yo By The Osmonds. I have a sneakin' suspicion that, as summer 1971 started winding down, The Osmonds were getting a bit tired of being a Caucasian Jackson-5 knock-off. True, One Bad Apple had gone straight up the chart to #1, but there is a price to pay for being a J-5 knock-off, that price being the fact that lots of people think that your to-date-biggest-hit i. Of course the actual term ' Rock and Roll'. Both apparently thought it w...

Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did!!!: Down By The Lazy Rver by The Osmonds
http://tanksseventiesmusicblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/down-by-lazy-rver-by-osmonds.html
Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did! Monday, August 10, 2015. Down By The Lazy Rver by The Osmonds. Down By The Lazy River. The Brothers Osmond were hard at work as Christmas 1971 approached, and much of their labor had nothing to do with Christmas shopping. They were still looking for a good, edgy sound of their own. And when I say 'Their Own', I mean written, produced and. Performed by them. And when I say produced and. For a 14 week chart run.not at all. Bad for their first songwriting effort!

Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did! Monday, August 10, 2015. One Bad Apple by The Osmonds. Ok, gang, listen closely, and prepare for a shock. The 'Justin Bieber' syndrome as it relates to young female fans is most definitely not. A new thing. Young girls have, in fact, squealed and sobbed and swooned at the very mention of the Young Male Singer Of The Moment pretty regularly over Rock and Roll's six or so decades of existence. Us Seventies Kids, in fact,. When I say '. Our own answer to The Biebs'.

Disasterous History: Congers New York Bus/Train crash
https://disasteroushistory.blogspot.com/2015/02/congers-new-york-bustrain-crash.html
Sunday, February 8, 2015. Congers New York Bus/Train crash. Congers, New York. The train-bus crashes in. Spring City, Tennessee and. Evans, Colorado inspired the legislative bodies in all 50 states to make huge strides in school bus safety legislation. By 1972 drivers in all states were required not only by law, but by Federally mandated State law, to stop at all. Of what they’re supposed to do. With that fact in mind, one of two things that the laws hadn't. Maybe in a low speed, front or rear collision ...

Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did!!!: Love Me For A Reason by The Osmonds
http://tanksseventiesmusicblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/love-me-for-reason-by-osmonds.html
Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did! Monday, August 10, 2015. Love Me For A Reason by The Osmonds. Love Me For A Reason. Every guy's had a girl that just strung him along. Every. One. Of. Us., and this tune about a guy telling his girl to stop doing just. That could have well been an anthem for every guy who's ever managed to survive the living hell that's that kind of relationship (Again.all of us). It would also end up being the Osmonds' very last Top 10 hit. In the second verse being the most not...

Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did!!!: Crazy Horses by The Osmonds
http://tanksseventiesmusicblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/crazy-horses-by-osmonds.html
Ya sang along with it and ya KNOW ya did! Monday, August 10, 2015. Crazy Horses by The Osmonds. The Osmonds left most of their bubble-gum roots far, far. Behind with their 1972 album 'Crazy Horses', and set musically-minded tongues a-waggin' while they were at it. Us music-lovin' Seventies kids, you see, had discovered that The Osmonds could actually play (GASP! The album's title track became, arguably,their second best known (Though, interestingly enough, not. First, Donny wasn't anywhere near. A tune a...
