Two great songs by Olivia Newton John

The 1971 Olivia Newton John song 'IF NOT FOR YOU' is so pleasant to hear.This song was ironically written by Bob Dylan.It is a pity that this wonderful song rarely gets played on Oldies radio stations across North America.
Another great Olivia Newton John song that I would love to hear on radio stations far more often is 'ON THE BANKS OF THE OHIO.'
