This Saturday morning at 9 105.7 KOKZ brings you another edition of American Top 40 the 70’s! This weekend Casey Kasem counts down the top songs from August 14th, 1976, it’s where I found today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45 from Earth, Wind, & Fire with “Getaway”.

The band was formed in 1969 in Chicago and went to become a Hall of Fame band in every way. Known for their horn section and energetic performances, Earth, Wind, & Fire recorded 16 top 40 hits with one reaching #1, 1975’s “Shining Star”.

“Getaway” was a #12 hit for the group in 1976. I found a live performance of the song from the late 90’s, check out Earth, Wind, & Fire with today’s Forgotten 45!
