The lights may be on but there is certainly nobody home. I wonder where they all are now ??? Funny that you use the descriptive for stratagem of silently mouthing to recording as being "synched", since the term 'lip-synched" was used in the US vs. "mimed" in Britain.

Weird double post. Sorry.

I've used both over the years. As long as it's understood, what I mean, I guess it really doesn't matter, does it ?

quote: ORIGINAL: kiwisub22 OH my God - no one has mentioned Eric Clapton..... and the Moody Blues and all of Elton Johns Good-bye Yellow Brick Road the Who - Behind Blue Eyes edited to add - Supertramp and 10cc and even though it isn't fashionable, I really loved John Denver.... In an effort to "defend" myself: I have always considered Eric Clapton and The Who to be 60s bands, much more so than 70s. So, I didn't "leave them out" for musical integrity; it was for having already been "established" by 1970 (I cite Cream and Tommy). Michael

I had no intention to insult you earlier, Michael, sorry if that's how it came across. I was pulled in so many different directions musically when I was young, I kept moving on to one thing from the next. No one who bought a Grand Funk album could proclaim any title to superior musical taste or anything of the sort, safe to say. At some point, I just decided that I didn't want to play Rock and Roll anymore, and some Aerosmith song happened to be what my band was working on at the time. It had nothing in particular to do with that song or that band. I had a lot of fun with it, then I was done. But I did include the all-time classic from KISS in my 6th post, and I wish youtube could better convey what these songs sounded like on the juke box. I think the last of them still had tube amps, and the great big output transformers. So here are three classic juke box greats from the era, all from those ancient tube amps, when we heard them; Deep Purple- Black Night KISS- I Want to Rock And Roll All Night Aerosmith- Walk This Way (I searched sources from vinyl for a reason, folks)

Some of us who grew up in the 70s considered what played on the radio to be pre-digested pablum https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHgOtg3QVtk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP19q_7BA-c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lFxGBB4UGU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqashW66D7o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2SVcVooGPg&list=PLMcAyJX7t2dFPNWIerMuD3UD0QTHyGlul https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kha_nsXuYvg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a49ckz4ITn4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERZZr5ckOeg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Q3vfmBH9ko&index=6&list=PL7EXobv7-7JDgB9ptNkNFBkhNuEdjMO4e https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2RNe2jwHE0 _________________________________________________________________ Now some songs get your feet tapping while being the epitome of what the bland music of the disco was. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjodGw4phhE And the 70s gave us a song that is in the top ten all time worst songs... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN5bio8xXp0 ____________________________________________________ Anyone remember some of the silly songs? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5LzOlNZPCc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjqeNoi6EmM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yt2O4Y_sQ98 And, the 70s had a teenage Michael Jackson before he disappeared for two years and came back bleached. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewVWdAp0HLs And there were the ensemble bands that did some interesting things. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gxwutvlTw8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFEewD4EVwU&index=7&list=PLvFnNWr2vBEB9k9lvBmgOT1IHl4t4rFVg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tn-8waQiYPg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8ISzx0TwrA&list=PLU2NPoJ_TJpar9lP--1qDiQOusClIVezg&index=10 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ First song I ever heard on MTV right after they installed cable. Yes, chilluns, cable was the NEW THANG in the early 70s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYomv4c7BkU __________________________________________________________________ My pre-teen cousins were into bubble gum music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkxAf6RxC-g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSP0e5rXUl8 In retrospect, that stuff was just opened the market for Menudo and Justin Bieber _________________________________________________________________________ And you can't talk the 70s without taking a walk on the weird side. Hey it was the decade that kicked off Wierd Al Yankovic's career. Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l84vhLafbN4&list=PL4yb6ubWokIg-l07L88im2o9IKWrFsPP8&index=9 There was the Dr. Demento Show... first on radio then late night MTV. That is where you got to watch videos for people like Barnes & Barnes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cn73Wtem0No .. walk on the weird side.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNS42Na2mpc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMddte6yD2w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBlsdyH23WU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSAEownqddg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzFZwul-DuQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbzjZNTEg6U

Ooooo - Simon and Garfunkel......... There was so much good music in the '70's - and for some reason Pink Floyd doesn't feel '70's...................... must be timeless. [;)]
