Gilda. Chevy. John Belushi. I watched them all, week after week, on “Saturday Night Live.” The ’70s were a politically charged decade; I celebrated my status as a young person in America by chuckling at the disrespectful and socially edgy commentary the show offered each week.
And the musical guests! Janis Ian articulated our mutual angst and I felt understood. Simon and Garfunkel pierced my heart through with their wispy rendition of “Scarborough Fair.” The Stones rocked my world.
Musical royalty performed each week, and I knew every word to every song.
