Sounds of the Seventies S01E07 - Comin' Home to You

The giants of laid-back, mainstream rock - cult bands and million-selling transatlantic troubadours who could fill a stadium - played sets for the BBC in the 70s, mainly on The Old Grey Whistle Test, introduced by "Whispering" Bob Harris. Tonight's performances include the Eagles singing Take It Easy (from 1973), Hall and Oates with She's Gone (1976), Little Feat and Fat Man in the Bathtub (1975), Lynyrd 
Skynyrd with Sweet Home Alabama (1975), Peter Frampton and Show Me the Way (1976), and two British names who continue to play to large audiences: Eric Clapton singing I Shot the Sheriff from 1977, and Dire Straits with their 1978 hit Sultans of Swing.
