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
I would add: Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, and James Taylor - JT.
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
3 glaring omissions: "Electric Warrior"- T.Rex. "L.A.Woman"- The Doors. "Lola vs.Powerman"- The Kinks
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
No Genesis, No Supertramp, No Deep Purple, No Rainbow, there were just too many great albums and bands in the 70's
Certainly, The Allman Brothers At the Fillmore East should be on the list-and near the top.
For me,There's has to be "Aqualung".
Deep Purple - Machinehead
I can't believe you don't have deep purple machine head on.😂
Absolutely. Undeniably. Such a glaring omission!
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.
Very hard to come up with the top 35, but I'd give the most credit to the albums I still listen to today. Rumours, What's Going On?, Dark Side of the Moon, Parallel Lines - Blondie, Led Zeppelin IV, More Songs about Buildings - Talking Heads, Who's Next, Born to Run - Springsteen, Moondance - Van Morrison.
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.
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.
I first heard DSOTM in the summer of '82. Been hooked on Floyd now for 40+ years. Nothing compares.
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
@@videosbaisam I understand!
@@videosbaisam The Black Sabbath was one of the best inclusions! Thanks.
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
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
We could be friends .. nice list
Ziemlich subjektiv, diese Auswahl. Es fehlen viel zu viele wegweisende Alben. Trotzdam aber ein Dankeschön!
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.
Doors LA Woman ??
Close To The Edge in the list but not Fragile..............sacrilege!!!!!
No Supertramp, Genesis, Van Morrison
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)
Sticky fingers?
That wasn't even close. Did you live in the seventies?
AMAZING LIST!!! WELL DONE
Not really guy has a tin ear
No Aerosmith Rocks or Toys in the attic?, the, at least my list could go on and on!
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.
How have you not got "Tonight's the Night" & "Rust Never Sleeps" or "After the Gold Rush"
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)
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
Where are Bridge Over Troubled Water and the Sarurday Night Fever soundtrack?
I’d have put the “Let It Be” album higher in the list, but still a great list.
Number 1........Dark side of the Moon, all day, every day, twice on Sunday.
It would be interesting to see what 100-51 was like. Quadrophenia and Foxtrot would definitely have made my top 50.
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.
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
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
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
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.
Faltan..Deep Purple-Machine Head...In Rock. Santana-Abraxas..III. Allman Brothers-Idlewild South...Live Fillmore. CCR...Lynyrd Skynyrd..ZZ Top...
Deep Purple, In Rock, Machine Head, Burn. Uriah Heep, Nazareth, Sweet, Slade, Queen, Yes, Rainbow.....?
No Rush? Epic fail.
Bad Company's first album and Benefit by Jethro Tull absolutely belong on the list.
Angel/S/T. 1975- Pure Essence of POMP\Prog! TRES Cool/Heavy!/Grandeur!
Great list even if i (like usually) miss Supertramps "Crime of the century"
You forgot the beautiful album Parachute from The Pretty Things, which was the Rolling Stone album of the year in 1970!
Where is Goodbye Yellow Brick Road- Elton John?
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
Who's Next Way Too Low! Also Physical Graffiti And Exile On Main Street
,, QUEEN -ll" 👑 and ,,A NIGHT at the OPERA" is the BEST ❤ FREDDIE FOREVER ♾️❤❤❤❤❤
,, QUEEN -ll" and ,, The Night of the Opera" is the BEST ❤️ FREDDIE FOREVER ♾️❤❤❤❤❤
I have 22 of these.
No Genesis, and craziest of all, no BRUCE Springsteen. Darkness and BTR are surely both Top 40 albums of the 70s
Surprised by the lack of genesis considering they’ve been in many of your other 70s list. I wonder why
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.
No Deep Purple. In rock and Machine head to brilliant albums
I own 27 of them. Jim
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
00:24 Yeahhhhhhh!!!!
70s music is the best ever.
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.
A Question of Balance by the moody blues deserves a spot
My ten -
Late for the Sky
Close to the Edge
Chicago (2)
Aja
Rumours
Selling England by the Pound
Argus
Relayer
Thick as a Brick
Blue
Emerson, Lake and Palmer? King Crimson?
Nr1 and 2. Wigwam , albums Begin and Farytale
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.
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.
Very problematic choice!?
Wishbone Ash - Argus
Santana - Abraxas...
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.
London Calling was in fact realeased in early 1980 - I know cos I was there .....
Released in the UK 14 December 1979
Very good list sir!
Emerson,Lake and Palmer. Trilogy is a big omission.
I would have included Al Stewart, Supertramp, Sex Pistols, The Police, Neil Young, Dire Straits, Eagles...
Any 70’s list without Skynyrd, Aerosmith, Allman’s , Rush, Van Halen or Eagles, just isn’t a list🙄
Not exactly, Van Halen only appeared at the end of the decade, Skynryd is unknown outside of America, like Allman's and Aerosmith (in the 70s no one outside of America knew Aerosmith), Eagles don't really reach this level of quality and the The only one I agree with is Rush, they made great albums.
Unknown Pleasures, Low, Mott, Fear of Music, Red, InRock, Entertainment, Marquee Moon, The Lamb, Rust Never Sleeps, Horses, Blue, DSOTM, Quadrophinia,
Adding Jean-Michel Jarre 's Oxygene.
Pour un classement années 70, il faut l'établir par années, et, ce n'est pas facile (risque d'oublis).
Some great selections but to omit Band of Gypsys is a Crime of the Century (another shocking omission)
It is not an easy album to listen to for someone who doesn’t adore Hendrix. It’s live and the song are very long. I get it
Styx. Nugent. Jusf two. Many more
MIA: Ramones, NY Dolls, Have Moicy, Bollocks, There's a Riot Goin' On, Dancing In Your Head
Where are the Deep Purple, Rainbow, Uriah Heep?
No Hunky Dory!?! No LA Woman!?
All the David Bowie... And Night at the Opera so low on the list, and no Boston...
Elton John ruled the 70s, yet...nothing.
If Queen isn't on here twice I'm unsub
Cya
Night at the Opera by Queen at 27. The Clash at 6. Haven't seen a movie about The Clash recently....and who in the hell is "Marquee Moon"???
listen to more music
Bro think having a movie is a measure of quality
Cockney rebel come on should be in there
Neil Young Allman Brothers Gram Parson Lou Reed Gemesis ce ne sono troppi per inserirli tutti
My list would be almost entirely made up of Zeppelin, Sabbath,stones,and floyd lol
Why is the greatest glam Rock Star with Electric warrior or the Slider Marc Bolan? 😢😢
Sorry, but No Boston debut album in the Top 35. In the words of John McEnroe- "You CAN'T BE SERIOUS!"
No ELP😮 what about Rare Bird Focus gypsy Renaissance Jeff Beck UK
Great list.
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!
I see your Red and argue Lark Tongues in Aspic
No way Bowie should have 3 albums on this list!
bowie should have 10
animals is underrated and should be there, so should meddle
