Song #329: "Driver's Seat"--Sniff 'n The Tears (1979)

As the great Summer of 1979 musically came to a close and I got my new notebooks and pencils together for my seventh and final year at Beaverdam Elementary School, I was introduced to Sniff 'n The Tears on my radio with what ended up as their one and only American hit.

It took the band several years to get that success, and while they only scored once on the charts, they scored very well. It's another of the "Songs of 1979" that are showing up all over The Rob Witham 500, and who also signaled a seed change in music as the new decade edged closer and closer.
