The Doobie Brothers : What a Fool Believes
On April 14, 1979 The Doobie Brothers returned to the top of the U.S. Hot 100 charts for the first time since in five years when "Black Water" hit number one. Beneath them, a buttload of disco from Gloria Gaynor, Amii Stewart, Wings, Cher, The Jacksons and Rod Stewart and some easy listening tunes by Anne Murray, Little River Band and Frank Mills who recorded "Music Box Dancer" five years earlier.
