'75 was largely about 10cc's "Original Soundtrack" here - was doing a little head-scratching w/Bowie, too, honestly. Wasn't nuts about the 'Young Americans' single. Still the one Bowie record I don't own. Should grab it, regardless.

Unfortunately, "Muskrat Love" didn't arrive until '76, heralding the peak of "Capt. & Tennille Mania". The young Weird Al Yankovic's parody "Muskrat Glove", about rodent safe sex, didn't make it past the mono cassette demo stage.
