What's Your Favorite Album From The 70S?


Recommended Posts

Yes had some great albums. I saw them in 1973 and I will get to see them again in August near Pittsburgh, PA. Three of the original members will be there: Steve Howe, Alan White, and Chris Squire. They will be playing "The Yes Album", "Close to the Edge", and a third album (which I can't remember) in their entirety. Can't wait for that show!

If the shoe fits-buy it!!!!!!

Well I'm going to kick in here again with Blue and Rumours. They both hold together as albums in that the songs are in the right order, and no need of a 'concept'. You just need a chap to treat you like rubbish or, in the case of Rumours, have treated each other like rubbish. Wonderful music though Listen to 'Songbirds' with the songs either side and you'll see what I mean. Sorry about the italics - I'm having all sorts of trouble.

Blue, now there's a jolly splendid 70's album......thanks for that reminder Meg, I must invest in another copy xx

Listen to even just the first line of this
and break out the sellotape to put your heart back together.

Sellotape? Scotch tape?

Har har, very good Ilik. Doubtless neither would adhere to callouses or scar tissue anyway.

I think I'll just stick with the needle and thread and the Bunnahabhain.

This is what the big girls were raving about where I was at the time: http://en.wikipedia....or_Life_(album)

I have to say I'm not a big pop fan but still have a bit of a soft spot for that album. I experience a flood of memories each time I hear the song "The Passenger", traces of which seem to have seeped back into the modern world.

Mountain. Awesome mountain of a guitar player, Leslie West.

Not thenormal, I have to be nice, 12 year old girl(not the word I Wanted to use) stuff. Not 70s but some of dave mathews. Has to be some of the most "musical" Music out there. I love the way his albums are engineered. I had him on Yesterday just because he makes my stereo sound good.

Ziggy Stardust, before he decided to put on a suit and become rubbish.

Have to agree on this. David Bowie didn't do himself any favors when he went toward the solo jazz styles. - - Just wasn't right. The content was good - he just wasn't the right guy to do it.

I have been listening to a lot of vinyl lately. And one of the albums I've listened to a lot lately is Bowie Pinups. Still in his Ziggy Stardust phase and is the rockin'est I've ever heard him. His best album ever, and so many don't even know it exists.
