Not necessarily the best or greatest, unless they happen to be cool :wink:
I re-discovered this song after watching The Runaways, and I can't seem to get enough of it: Nick Gilder - Roxy Roller!

"My" decade was the '80s, but a lot of the bands I listened to then (and still do now) got their start in the 70s, like KISS, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, the Ramones, Aerosmith, etc.
Just about ANYTHING BUT DISCO!
although I thought this was cool....

Just about anything that's not a slow love ballad or slow soul song. Lots of kickin' bass is a bonus!
I love Sky High, too!
Love some Stevie Wonder:

Thought I would post this video by Lard, a Ministry-offshoot fronted by Jello Biafra. It's basically a spit-take of all the worst/best of '70s rock and culture.

I actually like a lot of '70s music, and dislike about as much equally. Not just rock. I think "Stayin' Alive" has one of the funkiest rhythm-lines ever, but I also think other Bee-Gees tunes are some of the worst things I've ever heard.

There was some great punk rock in the 70's. There was the "proto-punk" of the early 70's. There were still a few artists doing real country music. That's about it.
