What can I say? I always disliked the Eagles. The only tune I ever did like from them was New Kid in Town. I actually bought the 45rpm single. It didn't help that my rock-and-roll buddies loved the Eagles to distraction. One of them even went on tour with them as their staff accountant.
What are your top 5 Billboard top 10 songs of the 1970"s?
As many agree the 1970’s had the best pop music of any recorded era, I thought it would be very interesting to see what Audiogon members have to say about this. I know 5 is tough but I did not want to make this post too long winded. As always I appreciate your time and selections. My top 5 are...
#1 Baker Street-Gerry Rafferty 1978 #2
#2 Summer Breeze-Seals & Crofts. 1972 #6
#3 American Pie-Don Mclean. 1972 #1
#4 Ricki Don’t Lose That Number. 1974 #4
#5 Miracles-Jefferson Starship. 1975 #3
Yes there are many great songs I could have placed here but this is my list for 8/18/21. Look forward to your responses!

from Billboard's Top 100 for the 1970s (too much effort for me to review 520 top 10 lists); these I'd probably most enjoy listening to repeatedly: * Won't Get Fooled Again - Who * Riders on the Storm - Doors * What's Going On? - Marvin Gaye * Smiling Faces Sometimes - Undisputed Truth * Maggie May/Reason to Believe - Rod Stewart As others have suggested, many album tracks - even into the 70s - were much better than the Billboard Top 100 lists. @rwp2694: title, "Stuck in the Middle with You" |
You might want to have look at this .. the racing site that is "the go too" for us NHRA class Racers has a little thread "Musical Taste". A buddy and me started it a year ago, and so far it has 84 thousand views (from racers). Its a thread similar to this one but everyday we post another favorite. I admit I been slipping lately, but theirs some pretty good viewpoints on it ... Have a look .. http://classracer.com/classforum/showthread.php?t=76442 |
