The best from the 70's

[WerBackIII]

Well, I bought a new album today:the best from the 70's and I wanna see which songs from these are your favourite.

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

All 70's music sucks, imo.

 

[spankey]

Manfred Mann's Blinded by the Light--- written by Bruce Springstein

 

[skadistic]

None of the above.

 

[CartesianFart]

What!!! No Black Sabbath and Aerosmith!?

 

[Masquerouge]

Yay Pink Floyd!

 

[col]

No Yes??

And who is this Clepton guy?

 

[Bugfatty300]

No Zep?

What nonsense is this?

 

[JonnyB]

Where's Meatloaf? Bat out of hell came out in 1977!

 

[MobBoss]

Rather odd selection for such a poll. But from that list, I will have to say Eric ClApton and Pink Floyd are a virtual tie. And I cant believe there is no Eagles on that list.

Some of my favorite bands from the period:

Boston.
The Eagles.
Kansas.
Electric Light Orchestra (a personal fav).
Styx.
Bad Company.
Fleetwood Mac.
AC/DC.
Queen.
Meatloaf.
Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band.

 

[CartesianFart]

I'll do anything for love of the OP to put Meatloaf in the poll but i wont do that.

 

[Masquerouge]

No Yes??

And who is this Clepton guy?

I believe that this thread specifically refers to tracks that are on the CD Werback bought.

Thus Yes, one of my fav. band, is not here...

The story of popular music in the 70's is really two stories. The first is alot ofreally great Rock, the second is the birth of Rap and the first inlkings of 'hip-hop culture'.

 

[CartesianFart]

I guess you can say that the Sugar Hill Gang "Rapper Delight" did started in the late 70's.The birth of commercial rap?

Well....not Rap...but Disco sure. Disco...the most hated form of music ever....that you jiggle to while driving down the highway.

 

[punkbass2000]

Don't forget the birth of punk

 

[Chukchi Husky]

No Yes??

That's what I thought when I clicked on the thread.

Fantastic list

From the poll options, I would have to go with Eric Clapton, though I do now have 'Devil Woman' stuck in my head. Thanks werback, thanks a lot

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

I guess Queen is ok. Bohemain Rhapsody is a good song. But they aren't on the list.

 

[nonconformist]

Don't forget the birth of punk

Summer of '77, baby!

And why all the Genesis hate?
