On That Note: Decades, 1970s

[jcyclonee]

And remember, Barry Manilow's first big hit.

Damn, there is so much stuff from the 70s. I'm going to cast a wide net with this one.

Musique "In The Bush" - delightfully naughty disco.


Boston "More Than A Feeling"


Carly Simon "You're So Vain"


Barbara Mandrell "(If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don't Want To Be Right"

I guess going more artist than song but Nick Drake...damn.

Geez I just want to sit around and drink oatmeal stouts all day now and listen to Niel Young.

It's kind of hard to talk about the 70's without mentioning the king of early 70's pop Elton John

Rocket Man


Crocodile Rock

Let's not forget The Sex Pistols

One of my Fave 70 groups

 

[Buster28]

The always awesome Dolly Parton with "Baby I'm Burnin'"


...and with "Jolene" in a way you've likely never heard it before


...and her first huge pop hit, "Here You Come Again"

Doobie Brothers had a bunch of hits in the '70s...One of my favorites

Spinners...

My McCartney choice … ---> Not the best of Paul’s “All the Best,” but the first solo-Beatle song I remember hearing on the radio. ... The "hands across the water" refrain in the "Hasley" section still soars.

Songs I used to hear on the radio, while at my first "real" job -- Dishwasher for an upscale restaurant.

 

[cyclones500]

---> Adapted for initial theme of “That ‘70s Show” then augmented w/ Cheap Trick rendition, the original got somewhat lost in the mix. Still captures a specific slice of the period. It's like "pre-nostalgia."

 

[cyclones500]

If it seems like these songs don't belong in the same post, that could deiminstrate 70s music in a nutshell
