    Male Voice: The tunes we enjoyed in our youth, like those catchy AM radio hits, develop an emotional resonance.

    Female Voice: Those musical memories hold a special place in our hearts, reminding us of the joy & heartbreak.

    Rock ‘n’ Me is a song by American rock band Steve Miller Band, released in 1976 as the second single from the band's ninth studio album Fly Like an Eagle (1976). It was written by primary band leader and songwriter Steve Miller. Miller also produced the song and album.

    The song achieved lasting commercial and critical success, with the publication Billboard labeling it "an immediate audience grabber". It became the band's second #1 hit on the US Billboard Hot 100, where it stayed at the top for one week; it also topped the Canadian RPM Top Singles chart.[11] In later years, the song has been included in several compilation albums such as 1978's Greatest Hits 1974–78 and 1991's The Very Best of the Steve Miller Band.

    In those old AM radio days it seemed like the song was number one forever. Radio played the song to death past the year it became number one. What a memorable song.

    I'm Gail Nobles! Thank you for listening to Podcast AM Memories.
