Your Top 10 or 20 favorite 70s songs

Postby devildog » Thu Jul 22, 2004 4:36 am

Since Cheetos started a thread about the 60's, why not continue with the 70's? What are your favorites from the decade of avocado-colored appliances and disco balls?

Here's mine:

Queen...Best Friend
Climax Blues Band...Couldn't Get It Right
Ace...How Long
Ian Gomm...Hold On
Fleetwood Mac..Dreams
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers...Even The Losers
Cheap Trick...Big Eyes
Buzzcocks...Ever Fallen In Love?
Al Stewart...On The Border
Supertramp...Even In The Quietest Moments
Gary Wright...Dream Weaver
Foghat...Fool For The City
Steely Dan...Aja
George Harrison...What Is Life
Ringo Starr...Photograph
Boz Scaggs...Breakdown Dead Ahead
Jim Croce...I Got A Name
The Who...The Song Is Over

I'll stop there. I still have many more.
