Cindy and I met in 1979 and I remember listening to Christopher Cross&#8217; &#8220;Sailing&#8221;.  I still have that album, on old analog vinyl so I put it on the mix I was making along with some old Karla Bonoff and some others.  I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ve forgotten a lot of the music we listened to or was playing on the radio at that time.<\/p>\n<p>So I thought I&#8217;d go look at the old Billboard Charts for 1979 to see what was playing back then.  So far I&#8217;m not able to find that information.  I did find <a href=\"http:\/\/www.recordresearch.com\/charts.html#CH3\">books for sale <\/a>that list the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.billboard.com\">Billboard<\/a> 100 for each decade but I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s worth that much for me to find that info.  I just thought it would be fun to see what music was playing back then.<\/p>\n<p>If anybody knows how to find that info without having to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.recordresearch.com\/charts.html#CH3\">spend $80 <\/a>that would be really nice.  Another good example of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cluetrain.com\/\">ClueTrain<\/a> in action (or not).  Now don&#8217;t get me wrong, it&#8217;s not that I don&#8217;t want to pay it&#8217;s just that I&#8217;d like to buy a month or two in 1979 and 1980 and perhaps for a few dollars not $80.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was collecting some music to listen to that would remind me of Cindy.
