So true! In the USA today just the b.s. "music?" of jusTin bierber and crap from warner bros. and here in Italy all Italian music and Itakian rap music is "just unpleasant noise". The British and American music of the 70s was The Best❤!
@@kfrelander Not for me. When I was in high school, there was a guy who played this album on his cassette player every day for 6 months. Since then I cannot listen to this album even if my life depends on it.
NICE!!! I realize it's a personal preference and quite a few I've yet to hear. Mine has Thin Lizzy's Jailbreak, Steve Miller's Fly Like an Eagle and Book of Dreams and Frampton Comes Alive all as a must.
Elton John, Paul Simon, The Cars, Curtis Mayfield, War, Badfinger, The Beach Boys, The O'Jays, Linda Ronstadt, Edgar Winter, Cat Stevens, Bread, Styx, Grand Funk, Al Green, Santana, The Band, Leon Russell, Eric Clapton, Van Halen, Rod Stewart....they all had albums worthy of being on the list. The thing is, I can't think of one album on your list that I'd bump to make room. Man, the 70's really was a great decade for music.
What an amazing decade for music! Excellent selection, and I would agree with many - although probably not Black Sabbath! Close To The Edge had a dramatic effect on my early life (my older cousin introduced me to the album) and I was a huge Yes fan until they morphed into the Buggles. It was my first introduction into serious music and remains Yes's best album. The same with Dark Side of the Moon. The other significant album was Tubular Bells, which I didn't notice in your list. Stevie Wonder has always been incredible, especially in the 70's and early 80's - the Original Musiquarium from 1982. I like the way you go all the way from jazz to heavy metal. Since 1976, the most significant band in my life has been Steely Dan. I was getting a bit worried for a while, but then you included two selections. My selection would include every SD album!
I was close to including the Royal Scam but there are too many great artist where I couldn't justify to myself giving so many spaces to one artist unless they really deserve it
I'm going to agree. The Wall doesn't belong above Wish You Were Here or Dark Side of the Moon on any list. And not likely in the top 300 albums of the 70s. Interesting list, though.
Glaring ommissions! Patti Smith- Horses, Tom Petty Damn the Torpedoes, Springsteen- Born to Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town, Jim Carrol- Catholic Boy.
Some great picks. I would also include Tubular Bells - Mike Oldfield Surf's Up - The Beach Boys Hunky Dory - David Bowie Born To Run - Bruce Springsteen Led Zeppelin III Pretzel Logic - Steely Dan Crime of The Century - Supertramp Sticky Fingers - The Rolling Stones After The Goldrush - Neil Young Transformer - Lou Reed Imagine - John Lennon AND SOME LEFTFIELD PICKS (personal favourites) Heart Food - Judee Sill Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers self-titled 1976 No Other - Gene Clark Deja Vu - Crosby Stills Nash & Young Reggatta de Blanc - The Police Night Out - Ellen Foley Armed Forces - Elvis Costello & The Attractions The Kick Inside - Kate Bush Tusk - Fleetwood Mac Sheet Music - 10cc I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight - Richard & Linda Thompson
What a decade for all styles of music, in my opinion, the very best. I should have been an 80s child musically, but nah, 70s broke so much new ground. ❤❤
C'est, clairement, la meilleure décennie musicale. Je pense, tout de même, qu'elle doit commencer en 1968 et se finir à 1977 (arrivée du punk). J'aurais ajouté KRAFTWERK, CAN et AAMON DULL.
So we all have a couple albums that were the first things we thought of when we clicked on this that we are shocked to not find on here. Mine are leftoverture by Kansas, Van Halen I, and Led Zeppelin 2 (my favorite zeppelin album). But you have to realize that there’s around 100 REALLY good 70s albums out there and maybe for whatever reason he didn’t think of most of them. It’s really hard to make these big large-scale lists. Anyway, good list (key of life is prob my favorite album of all time)
You can list the best 500 albums of the 1970s, and still, there will be plenty of complaints that this and that album was left out, placed too low bla bla.. 😂
It's the nature of the beast with best of lists but even before watching I know this will not include Meatloaf Bat Out If Hell... Meatloaf is always ignored
The 70s was the greatest decade of music ever! especially Rock Music. In my opinion here are just a few of the best... Dark Side Of The Moon, Pink Floyd.... Sticky Fingers, The Rolling Stones.... Who's Next, The Who.... Deep Purple In Rock, Deep Purple.... Led Zeppelin 4, Led Zeppelin.... Bridge Over Troubled Water, Simon & Garfunkel.... Harvest Moon, Neil Young.... Volume 4, Black Sabbath.... Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd.... Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Elton John.... Bat Out Of Hell, Meatloaf.
Some great picks, although Stevie Wonder's Innervisions is much better than Songs in the Key of Life. Also among the best of the 70's - Jethro Tull Aqualung; Grand Funk E Pluribus Funk; Zeppelin III; Beatles Let It Be; Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers; Johnny Winter And Live; Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs and Englishmen; Santana Abraxas and Borboletta; Alan Parsons Project I Robot; Elton John Goodbye Yellow Brick Road; Black Sabbath Master of Reality; Steely Dan Katy Lied; ELO Face the Music and A New World Record; Eagles Desperado; Fleetwood Mac (1975)
Heck yeah! SITKOL at number one...well, I've been saying that for years anyway 😄 Stevie at the peak of his creative abilities, a behemoth of an album, packed full of styles, genres, ideas and expansions. I think it's impossible to rank albums from the 70s...but can't argue with those top 10 picks.
My choices are ,1.Spiders from Mars, 2. Plastic Ono Band, 3. Let it Bleed, 4. QueenⅡ, 5. Zeppelin Ⅱ, 6. Siren:Roxy, 7. Hotel California , 8.Little Criminal, 9. Band on the Run, 10. Original Sound Track･･･etc.
You would struggle to put a decent top 35 together to encompass the music of the past decade. It's been the death knell of creative music and the rise of auto tune.
Great albums. So many great albums in that decade. I would have suggested Boston, ( first album ) Kansas left overture, kiss destroyer. Super tramp breakfast in America. I can go on, and on.
Best decade in music. Crime of the Century, Boston, Aqualung, Dire Straits I, Deep Purple In Rock, Selling England by the Pound should be here. Just an opinion. It´s a good list though.
theres a handful of albums i would’ve had in the list, including: imagine, machine head, in rock, sticky fingers, goats head soup, houses of the holy, meddle, ram, sabbath bloody sabbath
Not sure how this list is made but it must be personal preference because there were a lot of great albums NOT on this list and some very weird obscure ones on the list. For example, where is BOSTON?
Personally i can’t build a top35 list. It’s mission impossible for me, list would be change if not daily but probably monthly. It’s a taste of music what you like and how it change.
You could have put Sabbaths first 6 albums on there. Zeppelin's first 5. Motorheads classic lineups 3 albums on there. Deep Purple's Machinehead and In Rock. Nevermind the Bollocks. Clash's first album. Blondie's albums. Devo, All of Bob marley's 70s Albums. Even a few classic Country albums. Eagles etc etc. You coulda axed about 90% of all the garbage you put up there. All AC/DC's Bon Scott years. Think Lizzy. Van Halen, Kiss......the list goes on n on.
Mostly interesting list...because there were so many great albums in that decade, you could easily do a top 100 and still leave some deserving records out.
Let’s review. Who’s Next one of the seminal RocknRoll Albums ever at # 31 Barf. And no Quadrophenia anywhere on the list?? No Santana Moonflower?? The bloke is obviously a huge Pink Floyd Fan. Very curious list indeed. As others noted no LA Woman by The Doors either.
people have a right to make their own lists, of course, but with so much great music being produced in that era, I think it makes sense to limit yourself to one album per artist. McCartney, Lennon and Harrison of course would get a pass because they transitioned from Beatles to solo artists during the period. But artists such as Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Elvis Costello, Aerosmith, Elton John, Bob Marley and others clearly get shortchanged with all the Bowie, Floyd, Stevie and Zeppelin albums on here.
updated list with 100 albums, if interested
ua-cam.com/video/tojNYrJ5OUU/v-deo.html&ab_channel=VideosBaiSam
Supertramp deserves to be in this lista!
Crime of the Century, for sure.
Overrated
@@paulbrookes413most know them as underrated
For sure
Most bands don't have as many great songs in their whole catalog as Supertramp has just on Breakfast in America alone.
Lots of good albums, but none by Genesis. In the years 1972-1976, the band made really great music.
71 - 78
@@paulbrookes413 Yeah, like that too.
I forgot Trespass is '70
No selling England or trick of the tail
Certainly, The Allman Brothers At the Fillmore East should be on the list-and near the top.
You could do another 50 albums and the standard wouldnt drop. RIP music. What a shame it's gone.
another 250
So true! In the USA today just the b.s. "music?" of jusTin bierber and crap from warner bros. and here in Italy all Italian music and Itakian rap music is "just unpleasant noise". The British and American music of the 70s was The Best❤!
my god you are corny as hell
Deep Purple - Machinehead
I would add: Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, and James Taylor - JT.
What about Hotel California??
@@kfrelander
Not for me.
When I was in high school, there was a guy who played this album on his cassette player every day for 6 months.
Since then I cannot listen to this album even if my life depends on it.
3 glaring omissions: "Electric Warrior"- T.Rex. "L.A.Woman"- The Doors. "Lola vs.Powerman"- The Kinks
Good list, but it’s missing Boston’s first album, The Cars first album, and Crime of the Century by Supertramp.
Wiele rzeczy brakuje np Phaedra,Every One is Everybody Else,In Rock,Rising itp.,ale to tylko 35 lp.
For me,There's has to be "Aqualung".
Thank you for putting Songs In the Key of Life at #1 -- a masterpiece of masterpieces.
No Genesis, No Supertramp, No Deep Purple, No Rainbow, there were just too many great albums and bands in the 70's
NICE!!! I realize it's a personal preference and quite a few I've yet to hear. Mine has Thin Lizzy's Jailbreak, Steve Miller's Fly Like an Eagle and Book of Dreams and Frampton Comes Alive all as a must.
I first heard DSOTM in the summer of '82. Been hooked on Floyd now for 40+ years. Nothing compares.
I can't believe you don't have deep purple machine head on.😂
Absolutely. Undeniably. Such a glaring omission!
In Rock...that's Purple's best ...
@michaelbeerbados3291 agreed that is their best. Then, Made in Japan.
Omitted for a reason
Elton John, Paul Simon, The Cars, Curtis Mayfield, War, Badfinger, The Beach Boys, The O'Jays, Linda Ronstadt, Edgar Winter, Cat Stevens, Bread, Styx, Grand Funk, Al Green, Santana, The Band, Leon Russell, Eric Clapton, Van Halen, Rod Stewart....they all had albums worthy of being on the list.

@@videosbaisam I understand!
@@videosbaisam The Black Sabbath was one of the best inclusions! Thanks.
Where are Bridge Over Troubled Water and the Sarurday Night Fever soundtrack?
That wasn't even close. Did you live in the seventies?
The 70's *felt* like disco ruled the airwaves. Yet so much good music came out of that decade--and remains great.
no way the wall is better than any of the other PF albuns
TRUTH. The Wall is good, but there are several that are better.
Real, only WYWH, Animals and maybe DSOTM are better
I'm going to agree. The Wall doesn't belong above Wish You Were Here or Dark Side of the Moon on any list. And not likely in the top 300 albums of the 70s. Interesting list, though.
Totally agree 💯
@@philgretz It was the number one selling album of the 1970's. I think it is better than Dark Side and Wish You Were Here.
Glaring ommissions! Patti Smith- Horses, Tom Petty Damn the Torpedoes, Springsteen- Born to Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town, Jim Carrol- Catholic Boy.
Bro hates the Boss I stg
Any music critic would tell you those two glaring omissions would be for sure top 20 70s albums and more than likely top 10
Jim Carrol- Catholic Boy ! Thanks for the reminder, I'll dig that one out!
Springsteen?🤮
No Neil Young?
Good point.
A bit screechy 😂
Also no Moody Blues. I guess it's a question of balance...
@@paulbrookes413you are then not familiar with the vast width of his work
We could be friends .. nice list
Boston's debut album and the Eagles Hotel California should definitely be on this list!
How have you not got "Tonight's the Night" & "Rust Never Sleeps" or "After the Gold Rush"
Sticky fingers?
Born to Run??
Yep both BTR and Darkness on the Edge of Town should be on the list
Terrible album Springsteen is awful
Born to run and darkness are both surely top 40 albums of the 1970s
Some great picks. I would also include
Tubular Bells - Mike Oldfield
Surf's Up - The Beach Boys
Hunky Dory - David Bowie
Born To Run - Bruce Springsteen
Led Zeppelin III
Pretzel Logic - Steely Dan
Crime of The Century - Supertramp
Sticky Fingers - The Rolling Stones
After The Goldrush - Neil Young
Transformer - Lou Reed
Imagine - John Lennon
AND SOME LEFTFIELD PICKS (personal favourites)
Heart Food - Judee Sill
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers self-titled 1976
No Other - Gene Clark
Deja Vu - Crosby Stills Nash & Young
Reggatta de Blanc - The Police
Night Out - Ellen Foley
Armed Forces - Elvis Costello & The Attractions
The Kick Inside - Kate Bush
Tusk - Fleetwood Mac
Sheet Music - 10cc
I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight - Richard & Linda Thompson
Doors LA Woman ??

Not really guy has a tin ear

No Rush? Epic fail.

It's the nature of the beast with best of lists but even before watching I know this will not include Meatloaf Bat Out If Hell... Meatloaf is always ignored
Number 1........Dark side of the Moon, all day, every day, twice on Sunday.
Bad Company's first album and Benefit by Jethro Tull absolutely belong on the list.
No ELP😮 what about Rare Bird Focus gypsy Renaissance Jeff Beck UK
What a great decade for music. Bowie could do no wrong with a string of classics.
Close To The Edge in the list but not Fragile..............sacrilege!!!!!
No Supertramp, Genesis, Van Morrison
how is the wall so high and animals not in the list? Also close to the edge, red, pink moon and wish you were here should all be in the top 10
I’d have put the “Let It Be” album higher in the list, but still a great list.
The 70s was the greatest decade of music ever! especially Rock Music. In my opinion here are just a few of the best... Dark Side Of The Moon, Pink Floyd.... Sticky Fingers, The Rolling Stones.... Who's Next, The Who.... Deep Purple In Rock, Deep Purple.... Led Zeppelin 4, Led Zeppelin.... Bridge Over Troubled Water, Simon & Garfunkel.... Harvest Moon, Neil Young....

No Aerosmith Rocks or Toys in the attic?, the, at least my list could go on and on!
SOME of the best albums. Loads you’ve missed.
You forgot the beautiful album Parachute from The Pretty Things, which was the Rolling Stone album of the year in 1970!
Heck yeah! SITKOL at number one...well, I've been saying that for years anyway 😄 Stevie at the peak of his creative abilities, a behemoth of an album, packed full of styles, genres, ideas and expansions.
I think it's impossible to rank albums from the 70s...but can't argue with those top 10 picks.
Emerson, Lake and Palmer? King Crimson?
My choices are ,1.Spiders from Mars, 2. Plastic Ono Band, 3. Let it Bleed, 4. QueenⅡ, 5. Zeppelin Ⅱ, 6. Siren:Roxy, 7. Hotel California ,
8.Little Criminal, 9. Band on the Run, 10. Original Sound Track･･･etc.
Ziemlich subjektiv, diese Auswahl. Es fehlen viel zu viele wegweisende Alben. Trotzdam aber ein Dankeschön!
Deep Purple, In Rock, Machine Head, Burn. Uriah Heep, Nazareth, Sweet, Slade, Queen, Yes, Rainbow.....?
No Rush?
Surprised by the lack of genesis considering they’ve been in many of your other 70s list. I wonder why
Faltan..Deep Purple-Machine Head...In Rock. Santana-Abraxas..III. Allman Brothers-Idlewild South...Live Fillmore. CCR...Lynyrd Skynyrd..ZZ Top...
Very good list sir!
One question: Where's Clapton?
00:24 Yeahhhhhhh!!!!
70s music is the best ever.
It would be interesting to see what 100-51 was like. Quadrophenia and Foxtrot would definitely have made my top 50.
You would struggle to put a decent top 35 together to encompass the music of the past decade. It's been the death knell of creative music and the rise of auto tune.
Great albums. So many great albums in that decade. I would have suggested Boston, ( first album ) Kansas left overture, kiss destroyer. Super tramp breakfast in America. I can go on, and on.
If Queen isn't on here twice I'm unsub
Cya
Best decade in music. Crime of the Century, Boston, Aqualung, Dire Straits I, Deep Purple In Rock, Selling England by the Pound should be here. Just an opinion. It´s a good list though.
I have 8 of these albums. No Grand Funk Railroad?
,, QUEEN -ll" 👑 and ,,A NIGHT at the OPERA" is the BEST ❤ FREDDIE FOREVER ♾️❤❤❤❤❤
theres a handful of albums i would’ve had in the list, including: imagine, machine head, in rock, sticky fingers, goats head soup, houses of the holy, meddle, ram, sabbath bloody sabbath
,, QUEEN -ll" and ,, The Night of the Opera" is the BEST ❤️ FREDDIE FOREVER ♾️❤❤❤❤❤
Unknown Pleasures, Low, Mott, Fear of Music, Red, InRock, Entertainment, Marquee Moon, The Lamb, Rust Never Sleeps, Horses, Blue, DSOTM, Quadrophinia,
Great list even if i (like usually) miss Supertramps "Crime of the century"
A Question of Balance by the moody blues deserves a spot
Angel/S/T. 1975- Pure Essence of POMP\Prog! TRES Cool/Heavy!/Grandeur!
I have 22 of these.
Not sure how this list is made but it must be personal preference because there were a lot of great albums NOT on this list and some very weird obscure ones on the list. For example, where is BOSTON?
Where are the Deep Purple, Rainbow, Uriah Heep?
Boston.
Personally i can’t build a top35 list. It’s mission impossible for me, list would be change if not daily but probably monthly. It’s a taste of music what you like and how it change.
Elton John ruled the 70s, yet...nothing.
Traffic “ John Barleycorn must die”
Aerosmith “ get your wings”
Steely Dan “ the Royal scam”
The Royal Scam is a great album.
Who's Next Way Too Low! Also Physical Graffiti And Exile On Main Street
You could have put Sabbaths first 6 albums on there. Zeppelin's first 5. Motorheads classic lineups 3 albums on there. Deep Purple's Machinehead and In Rock. Nevermind the Bollocks. Clash's first album. Blondie's albums. Devo, All of Bob marley's 70s Albums. Even a few classic Country albums.
Eagles etc etc.
You coulda axed about 90% of all the garbage you put up there.
All AC/DC's Bon Scott years.
Think Lizzy. Van Halen, Kiss......the list goes on n on.
LZ 1 and 2 came out in the 60s
BOC needs to be here as well....and GFR...and WISHBONE ASH!
Frampton Comes Alive?
Queen should at least be in the top 10 and also 'Sheer Heart Attack' and Queen II on the list!
Mostly interesting list...because there were so many great albums in that decade, you could easily do a top 100 and still leave some deserving records out.
ah well, i actually will be doing a 100 albums from the 70's vid soon. i'm thinking 10 albums per year, ever year of the 70s
London Calling was in fact realeased in early 1980 - I know cos I was there .....
Released in the UK 14 December 1979
Nr1 and 2. Wigwam , albums Begin and Farytale
Let’s review. Who’s Next one of the seminal RocknRoll Albums ever at # 31 Barf. And no Quadrophenia anywhere on the list?? No Santana Moonflower?? The bloke is obviously a huge Pink Floyd Fan. Very curious list indeed. As others noted no LA Woman by The Doors either.
No Houses of the Holy?
some of the best LZ songs, but also a few sucky ones honestly. still love it but it doesn't compare to physical graffiti and LZ4
How can be no van halen or eagles on your list,or you've never heard any of their albums.
falta un lp de grand funk railroad

Emerson,Lake and Palmer. Trilogy is a big omission.
Why is the greatest glam Rock Star with Electric warrior or the Slider Marc Bolan? 😢😢
No Deep Purple. In rock and Machine head to brilliant albums
The Stranger
Very problematic choice!?
Wishbone Ash - Argus
Santana - Abraxas...
No Boston? Really?
MIA: Ramones, NY Dolls, Have Moicy, Bollocks, There's a Riot Goin' On, Dancing In Your Head
You forgot Imagine!!!
I don't think they did 😂
Adding Jean-Michel Jarre 's Oxygene.
