Energy Crisis '74

Energy Crisis '74 is a novelty single by Dickie Goodman released on Rainy Wednesday Records in 1974.
The record is a satire of the 1973 energy crisis in the United States, and was moderately successful; it peaked at #33 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and became the first Top 40 hit for Goodman as a solo artist (Goodman's other records throughout the 1960s had mostly fallen just short of the top 40 and his 1950s works were all collaborations). The record is structured as a series of interviews with various public and political figures of the day with regard to the energy crisis. Questions were asked by an interviewer (Goodman), and their ''responses'' were lines and snippits of various hit records of the day. The record ends with Goodman "run() out of energy" as his speech slows to a halt.
The B-Side "The Mistake" was a false start from the A-side of the record, about 36–38 seconds into the record. Only the first second or two has anything on it and the rest of the 2:00 is silent. Later pressings feature "Ruthie's Theme" as the B-side.
Portions of Goodman's dialogue would later be used on his son Jon Goodman's recording "Economy Crisis" in 2008.
