If you would have asked that question twenty years ago, it would have been Bob Seger. Now, looking back that far, it's impossible to narrow to less than ten.  Lets see: Seger, Eagles, Fleetwood Mack, Jackson Browne, ELO, etc, etc, etc...

Thank you.

WTH? How come nobody has mentioned David Bowie, Eric Clapton, The Sex Pistols, Joe Jackson, Billy Joel, Roxy Music/Bryan Ferry, Brian Eno, Joy Division, The Ramones, T. Rex, and Rush?! These bands/artists should definitely be in everyone's top ten list. Does it also count that many "80s bands" began their careers in the 70s? That would include The Clash, The Cure, Kraftwerk, INXS, Ultravox!, Japan and many others...

Were you ga-ga for ABBA? Did the Bee Gees give you Night Fever? Did Boston rock your world? Now's your chance to vote for your favorite 70s Artist.  ;D

My favorite group of the 70's were and still is ABBA. My little sister got me into them. A couple of years ago my father sent me a four CD's intitled ABBA: Thank you for the Music that came in a hard cover box. I love it and I play it all of the time. ;D

Quoting:
Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Boston, Eagles, Journey, KISS, Triumph, Jim Croce, STYX, Foreigner, Heart, and I have to say it because I was a big fan at the time......
Tha Bay City Rollers and Shaun Cassidy *swoon* :D

You were the first person who mentioned STYX.  That surprises me (of course, I am a fan).  You also mentiones Shaun Cassidy, how about Andy Gibb?  He was definately a hottie.

I loved the Bee Gees (I couldn't admit it, though, I would have been lauged at).  Then there's AC/DC....It is tough to mention them all.

I don't think that I could pick my most favorite. There is a lot that I really like. This may sound weird but I just recently (past 5 years) started replacing some of my old favorite vinyl and tapes with CDs. I don't know what happened to all my vinyl or tapes but through the years they have disappeared. My minor CD collection is a good indication of what my favorites are. A good percentage of them are YES (Classic). Relayer, Close to the Edge, Going for the One...

Wow! That's probably the only time I've heard YES mentioned on this or any other board!  :o  (Ooops, I have to go to the 80's board and bring up one of my favorite songs on the "Lost 45's..." thread  ;D )

Been replacing my albums and tapes for a while now. I've kept dozens of cassettes through the years, but find many of them don't even play anymore.

Good choice of classic Yes. Seen them around '77, give or take a year.

Oh, I like YES, BTW!  ;D  I also wanted to bring up one of my faves "Leave it" (I know it's not classic YES) on the 80's board, but haven't gotten a chance to yet.  ;D

A British group called The Sweet.They had a big hit with "Fox On The Run" in 1975.And a few other hits too,they really epitomized 70s glam or glitter rock.

Are they the ones who sang Ballroom Blitz?

I was into Lynyrd Skynyrd, Pink Floyd,Led Zepplin,Aerosmith,mainly the music that made it's way into the 80s,I wasn't into the disco music,but I was into just about all the rock music.

 Led Zeppelin!!!!

Quoting:
I love all of them too!! I was huge into ABBA and who can deny owning Boney M's "Night Flight To Venus" album? (I had the vinyl and the 8-track)....BUT I gotta say my fave group of the 70s had to be April Wine...I was totally into them...
End Quote

I love April Wine!!  I didn't get turned on to them until early 80's though.  My boyfriend at the time used to listen to them all the time.  I only know a few people who even know who they are. I think I'll listen to them right now.  :)

As for my favorites, I had the usual teenbopper favorites in the early 70's:
Donny Osmond, Shawn Cassidy, Leif Garrett, etc, etc.
CS reminded of another favorite that I just had to add:
Bay City Rollers  :)

But in the later 70's I was really into Alan Parson Project, ELO, Bee Gees, and especially Queen.  So I would have to say my favorite was Queen.
