I guess you could put the Stones there too, even though they are still going strong.

Yes. Queen, Pink Floyd, Stones all great in the 70's. The 70's Bruce Springsteen was good also.

What else have we got?
Title: Re: BEST BAND OF THE 70'S!!!!!!!
Post by: ripitupbaby on June 24, 2007, 09:51:08 AM
I was never a big Stones fan at all, and I tend to like them less and less with every year that they continue to tour.   :-\

The Eagles were great in the 70s, and I hesitate to even say it cuz I will get no support on this one, but I am a HUGE Deadhead, so of course there is no band that could ever top the Grateful Dead for me.   8)

Yes, but they kind of struck me as a one-hit-wonder with that song, unless I am just unfamiliar with the rest of their stuff.  Great song BTW!

The 70s was a great decade for music...almost makes me wish I was old enough to enjoy more of the music live during that decade, but then that would make me even older now.    :P

I didn't get a chance to catch much of it live, although I do remember my parents dragging me to a Sha-Na-Na concert.  Anyone else remember "Bowser"...was that his name?   ;D

And my dad loved KISS during the late 70s...I have to admit, I did too.

Hahaha  that's exactly what I was talking about!! 
My parents took me when I was really young, and all I remember is this "Bowser" dude, or whatever his name was, who had soooo much grease in his hair that he used to run his hands through his hair and you could see the grease fly off his hands and splatter on the floor next to him!   Amazing that I remember that cuz I think I was like 5 or 6 years old.... :D

If someone has some knowledge about 70's music, doesn't mean that they're old. Some people like Mozart, what does that tell you, my simple friend?

Something tells me that you're not the sharpest tool in the shed.   :-\

According to "nzmuscleworshipper" you could only like Muddy Waters or Chuck Berry (50's music) when you're about 60+ years old or so.   ::)

Glad it isn't just me that sees it that way. Other than some bits and pieces from a few bands, Fear Factory is about the only band I've really gotten into over that time period.

They're ok, nothing from them really grabs me though, not quite thumpy enough or something.
The chicks vocals kind of grate on me for some reason.

I like the music, not big on the vocals either. Earlier music had a male vocalist.

If you can find anything from them, a local band, Ambergine, music is awesome, and the vocals aren't too bad, high school kids or just out of high school now.

going on tour, had 1000 cd's printed, 10 bucks seemed like a bargain.
