What are your all time favorite songs of the 1970s? I would like to get some 70's songs and I don't want too many disco songs, I want mostly some light rock, pop, country and mainstream rock songs of the 70s.

Narrowing down that inventive decade of track, as anybody who got here of age then already is aware of, is close to unattainable. For me, your query was once the equal as hanging 2 hundred songs in a gigantic hat and simply achieving in. So that is what I'm gonna do! #five I'm You're Captain - Grand Funk Railroad (1970) #four Junior's Farm - Paul McCartney & Wings (1974) #three Simple Man - Bad Company (1976) #two Us & Them - Pink Floyd (1973) #one million The Joker - Steve Miller Band (1973) edit: That different Dave who picked The Zombies Time of the Season - that music got here out in 1968...oops. Great music from the 60's!

One hit wonders:

John Paul Young: Love is in the Air
Starbuck: Moonlight Feels Right
Jigsaw: Sky High
Godspell: Day by Day
Blue Swede: Hooked on a Feeling (the remake which is in my opinion much better than the original)
Terry Jacks: Seasons in the Sun

the bands I also recommend are Chicago (pre 1980s), ELO (pre-Discovery era), Eagles, Steely Dan, Nazareth, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep (pre-Wonderworld albums) and Guess Who

there's so many to list but this might help you...
if you want proper rock you could try ac/dc, the angels, guns n' roses, kiss, lynyrd skynyrd
for some more bluesy music george thorogood or led zeppelin is the way to go.
for easy rock i'd go with the eagles, nirvana, pearl jam, the easybeats etc...
for influential stuff i'd pick pink floyd and queen (they even had a disco era!)
then there's classic hard rock/metal. i dunno if THATS quite what you're lookin 4 but metallica is the best for that. listen to "enter sandman" and "one"!!!they're really good.
if this doesn't help just go on amazon.com (in the music category) and search 70s music. thats got good mixed albums that you can get the song lists from.
hope i helped!!!!
