95 Songs of Summer, #66 - "Ride Captain Ride" (1970)

I guess you could call this one of the great one-hit wonders, because I don't recall ever having heard another song from this band.  Having one hit hardly qualifies an artist for Hall of Fame consideration, but this song still gets played a lot, so it obviously had some staying power.  What I know for sure is that I'd turn up the radio every time it came on, or at least as loud as my dad would let me.
