Re: Uhm Zeppelin?
Nobody mentioned Led Zeppelin yet? Go burn in hell all you heretics!
I thought I saw it on Percy's list. But I didn't think, judging by his choices, that he would be into Van Halen or Judas Preist...well, maybe Van Halen but not Priest.

Re: Uhm Zeppelin?
With Gilbert O'Sullivan on the list I'm surprised that he didn't include Abba !
(And he doesn't seem to have any prog rock or punk on the list, either).

Also the Allman Brothers and Steve Miller Band might give good results on Pandora. And I think its your flavor.

Ooh, Abba!
I suppose I could have two 70's lists, "70's Fun" and "70's Hard Rock" or something like that. This one is "70s Fun". I'm coding, so I need to able to concentrate while it's on.

Edward Bear
Apparently a group name - Their big tune was "You, Me and Mexico", which I seem to have the vaguest of recollections.
At Allmusic Guide.
Seems to be a damn minor band.
Moose
ps: Not worthy of a new message. "You, Me and Mexico" was NOT the source of my "vaguest of recollections". And, as Percy points out, "Last Song" was the hit. Upon hearing it again, it rings a very minor bell.
Edited by Minnemooseus, : Add YouTube link and ps comments.

Re: Edward Bear
What characterizes a musical decade for me is what was playing on AM radio - I was too poor to own a stereo or buy records. Edward Bear had a big hit in 1972 with Last Song. I still remember most of the words.
I think of them as a one hit wonder, so I never heard of or at least don't remember You, Me and Mexico.
