I love stories like this… I've got one half of the underrated duo England Dan and John Ford Coley, that maybe the kings of the line, "Oh, that’s who sings that song…I’ve always loved it but never knew who sang it." Get This... today’s guests opened for Led Zeppelin as unsigned rookies, and they were so great that the newspaper that reviewed the show said they bettered the golden gods of rock! And not too long after, they put together one of the most successful runs of hits of the late 70s. From 1976 to 1978, they had 6 big hits, including 4 songs that all hit the top 10 and are classics of the time... including their first 2 songs Id’e Really Love to See You Tonight and Nights Are Forever that were in the charts at the same time. In fact, their first hit was so good that a young executive from the next office tore through the wall to beg them to sign with his label. They had 6 hits over a 2.5-year period and then just vanished. Today, I have the surviving member of this duo, John Ford Coley, to tell the story.

It’s time for another edition of our show Revelations, where featured artists take us for a deep dive behind their greatest songs and albums. In the 70s, England Dan and John Ford Coley had one of the most successful runs of the time with 6 hits in about 2 and a half years. Today I have the surveying member of the duo here to tell the stories of their big hits... It all started when they opened for Led Zeppelin as rookies and the duo blew the Golden God of rock off the stage. I’ll let John tell you about that one! Then their first hit I'd Really Love to See You Tonight was such a smash in the making that a famous executive basically clawed through the wall when he heard it and begged the duo to sign with his label. The song went to #1 even though some people misheard a lyrics and throught the guys were singing a love song about linen. Get the story next. the duo that had 6 hits in 2 years and then VANISHED as soon as the 80s began! Next on professor of rock
