When #ClintEastwood first heard Roberta Flack’s “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” on the radio, he was so moved he found himself “driving off the side of the freeway.” That same recording would find new life in his debut directorial film, ‘Play Misty For Me.' #70smusic

April 1972: Roberta Flack’s version of “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” hit the top spot on the Billboard 100 and Easy Listening Charts for an unforgettable six-week run. Billboard would go on to rank the song as the No. 1 song of 1972🥇🤯 #billboardhot100 #musichistory
