Musical Interlude: Make a Little Magic (1980)

 Toward the end of the 70's, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band shortened their name on a temporary basis to The Dirt Band, and managed a pair of modest hits under that label.

"Make a Little Magic" was the title song from their 1980 album, with vocalist Jeff Hanna joined by Nicolette Larson, two years removed from her cover of Neil Young's "Lotta Love" topping the Adult Contemporary chart. A year earlier, Linda Ronstadt joined the band for the title song to "An American Dream". The funny part is that up until recently, I didn't know, since the ladies were never identified by the DJ's on local radio back then......
