We kick it off with the Eagles live at the Capital Center "Hotel California" if you were anywhere listening to radio age in the 70's you waited for the real live DJ to queue it up...
"Hotel California" was the opening song at my best friends wedding. Overtime I hear it played, I think of the good times that we had in college.

The 70's best ever...I agree 100%, no other decade comes close as far as popular music. Punk rock, glam rock, progressive rock, New Wave, Philly soul, etc. From Yes to Genesis to Zeppelin, from The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac to Queen. From Elvis Costello & the Attractions to The Sex Pistols and The Clash. From Bowie, Roxy Music to The Ohio Players. The Who and The Stones in their primes. Motown still putting out great records. Elvis was still alive and playing. And all of the great one hit wonders on AM Top 40 radio.

Yes absolutely. I don't even know where to begin.

Well I agree, 1970's best music ever, but my tastes were a bit different. JD Crowe and the New South:

This video reminds me of our trips to Key West in the 70's.

I like a lot of the hard rock and metal that came out of the 90's and early 00's but I have to admit, the 70's was one of the best decades for music in almost all genres.

Technically, I guess 1970 ends the 60s decade, rather than begins the the 70s. Nevertheless, here's two from '70
Derek and the Dominos
This is pretty cool. Somebody put this video together from several sources--did a good job. Fleetwood Mac from Kiln House (Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Jeremy Spencer and Danny Kirwin, Christine McVie uncredited on this album).
