Discuss everything music related from 1970-1979

This decade had plenty of good music but things really fell apart at the end and there's been little recovery since. Be very careful when listening to 1970s music...you don't want to listen to disco!

I'll start out with some of the newest songs I've downloaded. These aren't the best example of 1970s music...that'll come later.

1970 - Domino - Van Morrison



1970 - Moondance - Van Morrison

All this Neil Young and CSNY talk (the Y is for the same Neil Young) got me thinking of a few other (better) songs....

1972 - Heart of Gold - Neil Young


1970 - Ohio - CSNY



For a cool song that just missed the 1970s (September, 1969) by CSN (CSNY without Neil Young) head over to the 1960s thread and look for Suite: Judy Blue Eyes.

1972 - Ventura Highway - America

For those that listen to Janet Jackson, the intro to this should sound pretty familiar. Contrary to what today's youth think, America DID NOT rip this off from her - it's the other way around! This song is far better than Jackson's completely unrelated song ("Someone to Call My Lover")



1975 - Sister Golden Hair - America

WARNING: The word "damn" is used in the first few seconds...

While we're discussing America (who is a British band) we probably should discuss their other #1 song (Sister Golden Hair being the other) which is probably their most famous song:

1972 - Horse With No Name - America

I take it you aren't an America fan! What about Van Morrison, CSNY/CSN/Neil Young?

I guess if don't like 1 you wouldn't like the other 2 and vice-versa...they're basically the same thing.

Maybe not though - I like CSNY, Y (young), but I can't even name a single song by Crosby or Stills or Nash (I'm pretty sure they all have solo stuff, too...they're much less famous than Neil Young though. I don't even know their first names! One is Stephen though and I'm pretty sure it isn't Stephen Crosby).

EDIT: Their names are Stephen Stills, David Crosby, and Graham Nash.

EDIT2: More info:

David Crosby is a guitarist, did some solo work, and was a founding member of The Byrds and CSNY. He's in the Rock and Roll HOF.

Stephen Stills did some solo work, was a guitarist and is most known for his work in CSNY and Buffalo Springfield (with Neil Young). Rolling Stone said he's the 28th greatest guitarist of all-time.

Graham Nash is a singer-songwriter and photographer best known for his work with The Hollies and CSNY.

They're all from previous bands of the 60s. One of them (I want to say Crosby) is from the Birds.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see that you already found that out.

How about a song that's been voted as the greatest Canadian song of all-time many times....

1970 - American Woman - The Guess Who

Here's a band that most certainly didn't suck:

1973 - Ramblin' Man - The Allman Brothers Band



Instrumentals don't always suck:
1973 - Jessica - The Allman Brother Band



1973 - Wasted Words - Wasted Words

I don't think you've posted this yet...

While we're discussing The Eagles, how about arguably their best song:

1976 - Hotel California - The Eagles

I was going to add that song, but got distracted. Thanks for adding it. Take It Easy is my favorite Eagles song.

The Eagles are a strange band. I have 7 of their songs on my iPod (that's not the record, but close) yet they don't have any songs that I think are that great. I mean, I like the 7 songs I have but all 7 of them just barely make the cut (Hotel California might be good enough to where it doesn't deserve this distinction). They don't really have any no-doubt, has to be on my iPod-type songs. CCR is fairly similar. I have 13! of their songs but probably at least 10 of them are the same thing - they're good enough, but not by a whole lot.

I mean, a song has to be pretty good to make my iPod, but not all songs on my iPod are created equal. I'll use a baseball analogy (this is a baseball message board after all). Ty Cobb and Jim Bunning are both in the Hall of Fame. While the HOF makes no distinction between the two, Ty Cobb and Jim Bunning are very different - Ty Cobb is one of the greatest HOFers while Jim Bunning is just a mediocre one.

while discussing batting songs, tigersaint said Verlander should use this:

1973 - Takin' Care of Business - Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO)



I say, another one that could work for Verlander would be to stick with the same group...

1974 - You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet - BTO

Don't let the video fool you, this song is from 1974 not 1975.

That makes sense. I'd rather listen to CCR than the Eagles though. Both are constant in that they have a lot songs that are good to listen to, but neither have a great song. I should add some 70s CCR songs.
