Bob Welch - Sentimental Lady

[link] Originally written for Fleetwood Mac who recorded it in 1972, Welch recorded his own version in 1977 and it was a major hit.  This is the only version I've heard and it is a core song of what I consder the "haunting" 70s sound that I personally am sentimental about. The sound is low key and wistful, especially the vocal. A, B, and C parts are all very strong hooks and could each support its own song. This is high pop songwriting.
