Not even. You'd have to back further than that - 1969, I think, to
Desmond Dekker & The Aces' top ten hit "The Israelites". Remember also that
in those days, "mainstream" was considered the AM radio format and FM was
for your more "underground" tastes in general (although by 1973 this was
already changing, in 1969 this was definitely the case).
