Music Break: Post Your Favorite 70s Songs...

[crg0813]

In ‘75 I went to the Golden Hall in San Diego to see Dave Mason and who opened for him, these guys did and I was a fan ever since. Somebody kept passing this funny smelling stuff and I smoked it, lol. Needless to say, I got to listen to Marshall Tucker but fell asleep and missed Dave Mason. Had to wait 25 years before I finally got to see Dave Mason.

Can't you see is a great tune

Lighthouse-1971 "One Fine Morning"

 

[Dane Ronnow]

They had a new stereo and some Bose 501 speakers and were playing Boston, smoking ? and drinking some beer, and of course I joined them.

So easy to do back then, eh? I was program director of an AOR station (FM) in the late '70s. So much good music! Pink Floyd's 'Money' was always my go-to when I wanted screaming guitar solos.

I'd forgotten this one from Lighthouse; thanks hobie1dog!

Another undisputed queen, Bonnie Raitt. These FM radio broadcasts from the 1970's are pure gold.

A monster Lp from 1973 that I missed until last year

 

[hball55]

Going to list three songs that I believe are all from the 70’s. They’re what I call “guilty pleasures.”

Yes: Awaken 1977 what a composition and the late Alan Watts-drummer who died this week
"Like the time I ran away
And turned around
And you were standing close to me"

 

[FlyBoy]

Don is such a heavy-handed drummer, it's amazing he can sing while playing.

 

[tsmith1315]

70's song, excellent late-model cover

 

[Hobie1dog]

 

[tsmith1315]

The whole song is great, of course. But Keith, Greg and Carl are having some fun here:

 

[K'Tesh]

Aw... Damn... Now I need to get some popcorn and start some binge watching...

 

[Hobie1dog]

 

[tsmith1315]

Greg wrote Lucky Man when he was 12!

 

[Cape Byron]

Midnight in Memphis

 

[samb]

I can't overemphasize how insanely great I think this song is. What's it about ? Who knows. Don't care. Every verse a story and no chorus. Love the fast country shuffle on the album but some guitar/harmonica versions are out there as well.
