Heart of Gold - Songs 1972

This mix continues the classic rock of 1972 but also includes some of the singer songwriter genre and the country rock sounds that would be known as cosmic cowboy.

It is also interesting to hear Nick Drake and Big Star among their peers.

1972 may seem a little early for Hall & Oates but not for a Philly kid. These mixes always use music from my collection released in the designated year. These are always highly personal views of the year and in no way should be considered "best of" or exhaustive listings. They are snapshots of my year in music.
