Tonight’s mystery artist wrote the song that Paul McCartney would call his favorite in 1979.  Any idea which band got this accolade from Sir Paul??

Well where I got this will answer this in one really.  I found it on rogerhodgson.com as something he told to Classic Rock magazine. So that narrows the band down to Supertramp and the song? That would be ‘The Logical Song’

The story goes back in 1979, Paul McCartney was asked to name his favorite song of the year. He chose The Logical Song by Supertramp. For Roger Hodgson, Supertramp's co-leader, it was the greatest of compliments.

"Having been brought up on The Beatles, it was wonderful to hear Paul McCartney loved my song."

Here they are with tonight's featured song.
