Wikipedia:
Living in the 70s is the debut album by Melbourne band Skyhooks.
The album was produced by former Daddy Cool lead singer Ross Wilson.
Two singles were lifted from the album: Livin’ in the 70s and Horror Movie/Carlton (Lygon Street Limbo). The latter spent 2 weeks at the top of the Australian singles chart in 1975. Six tracks from the album were banned on commercial radio in Australia; in defiance of this, however, the ABC’s new youth station in Sydney, 2JJ, played the track You Just Like Me ‘Cos I’m Good in Bed as its first ever song when it began broadcasting in January 1975.
