Further to your enquiry on this, I have checked with our satellite broadcast company and they are only able to check track listings within the last 24 hours broadcasting, for any of our stores.
They would only be able to narrow down the track listings if you had an idea who the artist might be - which I appreciate you may not know.
 
If you may have an idea on the artist please let me know and we can supply the relevant track listings.
 
Apologies I cannot be of any more assistance on this.

I remember it well but it's not a favourite of mine. It's a bit 'middle of the road' for my tastes.
1974? This is more like it:
