101 Songs To Discover From The Seventies

101 Songs To Discover From The Seventies

From the publisher...

Whether you are discovering your parents (or grandparents!) record collection for the first time, or are of 'a certain age', wanting to revisit a great era, then this book is definitely for you. The Seventies was the most chaotic, fractured and diverse decade on record for music...and it was arguably the most exciting and creative too. 101 Songs To Discover From The Seventies is a key to help unlock the mysteries of that decade, telling the story of the evolution of popular music through a series of carefully chosen compositions. Starting with the might of progressive rock, the book steers a steady course through the blues, folk, disco, rock, heavy rock, glam, punk and new wave, before paving the way for the Eighties and the new romantics. This exciting book (which is illustrated throughout), not only touches upon the more popular songs and artists of the era, but takes a look at some of the forgotten acts and those that simply failed to get their big break.
