DEF: Joey Scarbury “The Theme from The ‘Greatest American Hero'”
California-born singer Joey Scarbury only hit the Top 40 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart once, though that one song almost went as far as it could go.  On this date in 1981, his theme song to the television show The Greatest American Hero rose to number two, where it would spend two weeks. “The Theme from The ‘Greatest American Hero'” is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
