UK -- If by Telly Savalas Telly Savalas?!?

US -- Black Water by the Doobie Brothers

And I'd just like to say again, Telly Savalas?!?

Commiserations, fellow Telly Savalas-sufferer. (I've heard the song a couple of times and it's awful).
My US number 1 is Have You Ever Been Mellow? by Olivia Newton-John. Never heard of it. (UK Number 2 on the day I was born was Bye Bye Baby by the Bay City Rollers, so there is *some* good somewhere in the 1975 charts!)

Vic Reeves & The Wonderstuff covered that song in the 90's but the Tommy Roe version is just as good..a little less bouncy though.
