My favourite decade for music , think this will be interesting as i've given you a solo song from John ,Paul ,George and Ringo . Think we might get one or two partisan vote's here

I've not been partisan , i went with Kate Bush and Wuthering Heights which i think is a totally  unique single

Curtis Mayfield's "Move On Up" gets my vote. "Superstition" and "Heart Of Glass" are well worth considering, though. "God Save The Queen" is fun but cheezy; Johnny R & company were probably at their best covering Iggy's "No Fun" on the flip side of "Pretty Vacant." Of The Beatles' solos I'll probably have "My Sweet Lord" because it's so sixties.

'Driver's Seat' - Sniff'n The Tears

('50 ways to leave your lover' get an honerable mention)

1. Matthews Southern Comfort - Woodstock
2. Michel Fugain & Le Big Bazar - Une Belle Histoire
3. Cat Stevens - Wild World
4. The Alan Parsons Project - The Turn Of A Friendly Card
5. America - A Horse With No Name

Does the word "impossible" spring to mind?

I couldn't possibly pick; as I began looking over lists of 70s favorites, I found way too many songs or artists that were important to me. I'll go with the first one for convenience, but this is as mood dependent as anything I've seen.


1.  "Bridge Over Troubled Water" - Simon And Garfunkel

"After the Gold Rush" - Neil Young

"No Time" - The Guess Who

"American Pie" - Don McLean

"Without You" - Nilsson

"Brandy (You're A Fine Girl)" - Looking Glass

"Operator (That's Not The Way It Feels)" - Jim Croce

"Killing Me Softly With His Song" - Roberta Flack

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd

Dream On by Aerosmith

Aqualung by Jethro Tull

(Don't Fear) The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult

Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple

Stairway To Heaven by Led Zeppelin

Mandy by Barry Manilow

Maggie May by Rod Stewart

Dream Weaver by Gary Wright

More Than A Feeling by Boston

This is pretty impossible Dave, but here's a few of my favourites, off the top of my head:

Faces - Stay With Me
T-Rex - Get It On
Mott The Hoople - All The Way From Memphis
Ace - How Long
Jethro Tull - The Witch's Promise
Badfinger - Day After Day
The Move - California Man

many many to choose from, but one does stand out:
More Than a feeling by Boston.
Perfect in every way.

We're disagreeing on something? About bloody time - break out the champagne. I'd lover to trash yours, but they're good choices. though I'd put all The Young Dudes (far better than Bowie's) over Memphis.

Blimey, I'll have to start listening to more American AOR!!

'Dudes' is good also, but being a big Mott fan I go for 'Memphis' because they wrote it. There are too many good singles to choose from. I think the 70's is the most varied decade musically. From Prog to Glam Rock, to Punk, via Disco.

I  like  " The Golden Age Of Rock 'N' Roll " and  " Roll Away The Stone " from Mott The Hoople , i don't have any of there albums , which  is their best BlueMeanie ?

The best of their glam period is 'Mott'. From the earlier stuff I'd go for 'Brain Capers'.

Is Mott , the one with the head on a blue background  ?

'Mott' is the one with the head on a pink background. The blue one is 'The Hoople'!
