It's the time of the year for family celebrations...and few artists have had the kind of multi-generational family success as Pat Boone.  One of the top ten biggest-selling singles artists in the history of twentieth century pop, Boone was the youngest performer to host a national television primetime variety show with his 1957 program Pat Boone's Chevy Showroom, and he went on to become a familiar, welcoming presence on the small screen over the ensuing decades.  Family has always been a

What single sat atop the Billboard Hot 100 forty years ago this week?  You might first guess it was perhaps something by the Bee Gees, who were in their own historical chart-run at this moment.  But it was actually "You Light Up My Life" by Debby Boone, which was well on its way to becoming the No. 1 single of the entire 1970s.  The record-smashing hit was also featured on an album of the same name, which became a platinum smash in its own right.  Despite this success, the album has never

Forty years ago this week, Meco's "Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band" was knocked from the top of the Billboard Hot 100 after a two-week run at the peak position.  The new chart-topper would remain in that spot for an additional 9 weeks and become the biggest-selling single of the entire 1970s.  And what was that song?  You might first guess it was perhaps something by the Bee Gees, who were in their own historical chart-run at this moment.  But it was actually "You Light Up My Life" by Debby Boone.
