Scratch that. 14. Light in the black- Rainbow.I had to put on a Dio voice and attempt a dodgy impersonation in the kitchenā¦
Much to the dismay of my family. No matterā¦they already know Iām weird.
I knew youād get it
Righto, been meaning to make one up for a while, & couldnāt think of a better time to throw my hat in the ring & provide some distraction. (Itās not as easy as it looks eh Swoods?? Respect)
So, I hope I didnāt make 'em too hard or too easy, the more lyrics the more unknown I figured the song is,. less lyrics ā¦ you get it.
These are all songs from the 70ās, ā¦ including a couple just a smidge sooner, from the Summer of love '69, ā¦ When that Canuck dude got his 1st real Six String.
Song/Artist/ Bonus points for the album/Trifecta.
Enjoy.

Ok. I added a few more lyrics to some that remain that may have been a tad shy.
And changed the song of one. (Same band, same album).
Have another look.
8 is doing my head inā¦
- Beth / Kiss / Destroyer
8 is doing my head in.....
Ha ha, probably the most obscure one in it. It was not released as a single.
You wouldnāt know it if you didnāt have or havenāt heard the album, but if you did have it, youāll definitely know it.
One I put in though, with yourself and 1 or 2 others in mind.
1971 release. Big BIG band of itās day, enduring & still touring today.
