Deacon Blues - Steely Dan   

Goodbye To Love ~ Carpenters

I Feel The Earth Move ~ Carole King

My Prayer- Gerry Monroe ... the best ever version as far as I'm concerned. Do you know that version Mr. Eno? Your opinion? He won on 'Opportunity Knocks' in the days of Hughie Green. It's one of my all time favourites (really).

And just now, another one that would figure very highly in my favourite 100 singles of all time ... 'Have you seen her' by the Chi-lites .... the intro is a killer (in the sense of dramatic/forceful, romantic, sad,  unforgettable.... DREAMY). Sadly, the lead singer died a few years back just as I was visiting the UK. Probably explains why Channel 4 or 5 TV was playing this song frequently as an ad at the time.The band, from Chicago, reached no.3 in the UK, and were in the charts for 12 weeks with this pearl (1972).

Yes, I know I'm a closet romantic


What a beautiful song now.... Roger Whittaker's 'Last Farewell"  :)

Heh! Gerry Monroe...a man with a falsetto that could frighten bats!

He did a lot of updates of old standards...acceptable in their own way, I suppose...

Sadly, I think he passed on in the early 90s...a truly 'forgotten figure'... :-\\

I'm a man~Chicago ( Their 1st ever UK chart entry .. and it got to #8 .... 11 weeks on chart ... in my  fav. music year ever... 1970!)

One of many songs that gave the year ...1970 'cred' ...and this one .... possibly the biggest in that respect ... from that year ...


Voodoo Chile~Jimi Hendrix

Abraham, Martin & John ..Marvin Gaye

One of the greatest songs of all time .... (actually .. I can't think of what could become ahead of it!) ...

Yet another song from my fave year .. and one that reveals what a sentimental old fashioned romantic fool I am....

Andy Williams~Home lovin' man

Another great from 1970 ... Ruby Tuesday .... Melanie

Alright Now!~Free ... how many great songs did 1970 produce ...

Patches~Clarence Carter ... from (guess the year .... ).

Green Manilishi~Fleetwood Mac

Yet another AWESOME song from 1970 ... check it out!

Lady D'abarnville~Cat Stevens ... 1970

Indian Reservation~Don Fardon ...1970 ... the far FAR superior version ... that was subsequently covered in the USA by the raiders... a crap CRAP!!!  version!

Hey! How about releasing these songs/versions side by side ... so the public get a chance to decide which is best? (instead of ... take it or leave it! )

Signed sealed or delivered ... ~stevie wonder .... 1970

Nothing Rhymed~Gilbert O'sullivan

Probably my fave song of his .... his chart debut in the UK ... from ... (guess , guess) 1970!

The love you save~Jackson 5 .... 1970

25 or 6 to 4 ~ Chicago ... uhm .... 1970!

Gasoline Alley Bred~Hollies ....uhm ... (this is getting boring) ... yet another classic from 1970!

Bridge over troubled  water~Simon & Garfunkel .... (no prizes for the year ...  :P :P :D ;D ).

Black Night~Deep Purple .... you know the year!  :D ;D

Edwin Starr~War!

.... (no comment!  :D ;D ).

Matthews Southern Comfort~Woodstock ... a UK #1 .... in .. 1970!

If I were your woman~Gladys Knight

Don't Play that song~Aretha Franklin ... 19 ...........7..............0!    :D ;D

Hey 'Mister' .... don't play no more !  :D ;D

White Plains ~ I've got you on my mind .... 1970 ... a beautiful song!

My Prayer~Gerry Monroe ... icing on the cake for me! 1970. One day ...I might find out whether Mr. Eno knows/ likes this version (which I love!).

Cottonfields~Beach boys .. 1970

Cracklin Rosie~Neil Diamond ... even Forrest Gump will get the year!  :D ;D

Simply Jessie- Rex Smith

Mama told me not to come~3 dog night .... 1907 ... oops ... I meant .. 1970!

Hey Belle .... I hope that song's from 1970 ^ (but I suspect it isn't!  >:( ;) :D ).

You bet it is.  It is from the TV movie Sooner or Later...which has a great title song too.
Rex Smith and ....ugh. Mike will remember her name.  Denise Miller!

New World in the morning~Roger Whittaker

everlasting love- andy gibb

Uhm ... I don't think 1979 is 1970! ... but it's more than cool.  8)  I was just paying homage to my fave year of all time. However ... I'm starting to get into the 'B' stars of that year ... which in any other year ... would be super-duper-uhm ... we are not worthy etc etc; MONSTERS!  ;D

Yes.. right now ... possibly my fave Elvis song ... 'I've lost you' .... you know the year!  ;D

We like alot of the same music.  Why are you looking for spefically 1970 when the thread title is "70's"?

I understand your attachment to a year. I'm into 78 and 79 myself.

Diana Ross~Aint no mountain high enough (but not exactly 'B' grade ...)

Hmm .. I've just seen your response ^ prior to posting.

I explored all that in another thread I started. 1970 is my fave year .... and I listed roughly 100 songs. Probably partly 'cause of my age at that time.... but I stand by the songs too ... a fantastically 'quality' year for music ... IMHO!

I totally agree.

Whole lotta love~CCS .... their version of 'Led Zeppelin's classic ... which was used for a number of years to introduce the 'countdown' to #1 for the week on BBC's 'Top of the Pops' weekly show!

The Witch~Rattles

I believe .. a 'million seller' ... from Germany ... a great song for Halloween. Creepy/ psychedelic! Well worth downloading!

Lola~The Kinks... do I need to say .... 197?  :P ;D

The song that introduced me to T.Rex/ Marc Bolan ...

Ride a white Swan~T.Rex ... 1970 (though they had minor hits in 68/69).

Rainbow~Marmalade

A pretty ... very laid back 'soft rock' song ... from the group who covered the Beatles 'Ob La Di' .. and had a great hit .. 'Reflections of my life'

Lady Barbara~Herman's Hermits

Their swan song .. chart wise in the UK

It reached no.13 ... and I like it a lot. One for the romantics...

Black Skin blue eyed boys~The Equals ... (featuring Eddy Grant of 'Electric Avenue' fame).

Ball of Confusion~The Temptations .... same year!

It's a shame~Motown Spinners (Spinners) .... again ... 1970  8) 8)

Bread~Make it with you .... 1970

Temma Harbour~Mary Hopkin ..1970

It's only make believe~Glen Campbell .... 1970 (no .. I don't have a fixation about that year!  ;) ;) ;D :D ).

Stand by Your Man ~ Tammy Wynette
