What song(s) most reminds you of the '70's?

[DLR_EngineRoom]

Not necessarily any specific type of music....


Funny how in the 70's there wasn't 'Pop' music...

Just Classic Rock, Heavy Metal, Punk, Easy Listening, Country and Disco....


Jazz and Classical are always there thru the ages....

[Jérôme Frenchise]

Yes, there WAS pop music back then. But maybe it was just a little more presentable than that of today.

[Alex Mogilny]

songs that were released in the 70s remind me of the 70s

i remember vividly riding to the beach with my mother and her cranking 'baracuda' on the radio...i can almost smell the surf when i hear that song

[fret_buzz_blues]

^Yeah...kinda what he said in that first sentence. Obvioulsy, I wasn't there, but the way my dad describes it all so vividly to me...it seems like I saw those days. I don't know, I'd have to say like, songs by Fleetwood Mac...

Beg ta differ with yuz, buddy... provide me with ANY example you can think of...and I'll show you how it belongs to a more specific brand of music - more notable 'disco' or 'easy listening'......

I just created a 75 song 70's only CD - without any disco of course.


Hey, have you ever noticed that the 'Kings Of Disco' - Bee Gees both started AND ended off as a rock n roll band?!

lol it goes to show you - it took a rock n roll band to master a flash in the pan craze like disco.

The Guinness World Book Of Records award to 'Rock n Roll band with the most successful disco phase' goes to the Bee Gees...

BTW One of The Best eras music has got to be 1976-1980, You had KISS, Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, Fleetwood Mac, Zeppelin, The Who, Floyd, Ted Nugent, The Cars, Reo Speedwagon, Journey (Please Forgive me But I auctually do like some of journeys stuff.), Queen And The3 MIGHTY VAN HALEN!!!!, God It must have kicked ass to go to Concerts back then. FM Rock radio must have kicked ass back then too.

My parents listened to Top 40 AM stations when I was a kid in Savannah. I remember hearing "Venus" by Shocking Blue at the beach and thinking it was the greatest song I'd ever heard.

The 70's were the best when it came to rock and roll radio! Even bands that didn't get airplay like the mighty Ramones, started in the 70s..

One song that always makes me think of being young kid in the 70s is Wings "Band on the Run".

[Warham]

Hotel California. It oozes 70's from it's every pore.
