Songs from the late 60’s and 70’s are my favorites. What about you? OK so I’m old. The 60’s and 70’s was the golden age for me. Be it Classic, Pop, or Soul.
But you can play any era you feel has the best music. Be it the 50’s, 80’s,90’s todays music. Play it.

Songs of the 70’s.
I’ve chosen to separate things into a variety of loose genre categories and to limit things to one song per artist, just so we could include as many different folks as possible. As you’ll see below, there was an enormous amount of great music being produced, so take this list as a starting point for future exploration. The best songs of the 70s do the same, pointing the way to music and art that demands your attention.

The 70’s Weekend. The last decade of Classic Rock. Models like Jane Birkin and Jerry Hall (who famously dated Rolling Stones front man Mick Jagger) epitomized ‘70s style. Bell bottom pants, flowing maxi dresses, ponchos and frayed jeans dominated 1970s fashion. Tie-dye inspired by the 1960s “hippie” style continued to be worn, while patchwork and plaid fabrics gained popularity. In 1974, Diane von Furstenberg debuted her famous wrap dress, embodying the modern working woman’s desire for both comfort and style.
People turned to pop culture–easy to do in such a trend-laden, fad-happy decade. They listened to 8-track tapes of Jackson Browne, Olivia Newton-John, Donna Summer and Marvin Gaye. Disco rose and with it, the sounds of Abba, the Bee Gees and Donna Summer. On the rock front, bands like the Rolling Stones, Van Halen, Pink Floyd and Queen dominated airwaves.
