Captain and Tennille Swoons to #1 With "Love Will Keep Us Together," - This Day in History – Apr 19th

Back in 1975, the singing (and eventually married) duo, “The Captain & Tennille,” took their love song, “Love Will Keep Us Together,” to #1 on the U.S. pop charts.  

According to history.com, “Toni Tennille and Daryl Dragon were not yet married when "Love Will Keep Us Together" rose up the charts to become the first of the duo's two #1 hits. They made their arrangement legal, however, in November 1975 and went on to become the must successful husband-and-wife duo since (Sonny and Cher) Bono, notching seven top-10 singles in the subsequent five years, including "The Way I Want To Touch You," "You Never Done It Like That" and "Do That To Me One More Time." Between the titles of those hit songs, their evident fondness for each other and their irresistible image—she with the shiny hair and perfect teeth, and he with a captain's hat that spoke of limitless nautical possibilities—the Captain and Tennille made marriage look and sound kind of sexy, of all things. And far from being an act for the public's benefit, their happy marriage is going strong more than three decades after their breakthrough.”
