People who lived in the 70s witnessed a new revolution when it comes to music and style. This decade introduced the use of mood rings and lava lamps, while smiley also became a popular face sticker. Though the music scene mourned over the death of Elvis Presley and grieved over the The Beatles break up, the best music of the 70s saw the birth of disco music and a new form of rock 'n roll.
Not only did people in the 70s seem to go crazy over station wagons and bell bottoms, they also found a phenomenal craze through the disco fever. "The Hustle" by Van McCoy was among the popular hits of the season that also proved to be a livelier decade than the 60s. After The Beatles mania, who could forget Gloria Gaynor who sang "I Will Survive" and "Never Can Say Goodbye?" How about The Bee Gees with "Stayin' Alive" and The Village People with "YMCA?"
Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, and Eagles were among the famous groups of the time who introduced a new music style and rhythm. Nevertheless, their musical contributions are still marked today as one of the best music of the 70s.
For easy listening, the Carpenters also took the music scene by storm with "Yesterday Once More," "Top of the World," and "We've Only Just Begun" as chart-toppers. Roberta Flack, Eric Clapton, and Billy Joel also made the 70's a memorable year for music lovers.
