1976 - Long Hot Summer (Number Two)

The Yanks veto Palestinian statehood
London's direct rule of Northern Ireland
Argentina's generals up to no good
Harold Wilson resigns, Jim Callaghan
New PM, Chou Enlai and Mao are gone
Concorde to Washington, Soweto fights
Against Afrikaans in schools, the Ramones
First album, heatwave, Butlin's Bognor nights
Learning the hustle, playing pinball, White
Lightning at Montreal, Son of Sam's dread
Patrols in NYC, Lauda is burned
Ford beats Reagan but Carter wins the White
House race, Belfast peace women, Viking's stood
On Mars, and punk's in Manchester, London
