The Saturday Special this week features Lynn Anderson, who celebrated her 67th birthday yesterday. The daughter of country singer/songwriter Liz Anderson, Lynn had a nice run of hits from the late 60s through the 70s, but it is certainly this mega-crossover hit for which she is best-remembered. Written by folk rocker Joe South and released in 1970, Rose Garden spent four weeks atop the country chart, was #1 on the Canadian country and pop charts, and went top-five on the pop charts in the U.S., U.K., Finland, Norway, Australia, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Austria, and New Zealand. youtube/watch?v=VrxDlIE5148
