Haha, I actually liked that too…then. At least you didn’t say “Muskrat love” thank god! 
Here’s “Love Will Keep Us Together”, by the Captain and Tennille A minor classic and a fun little tune!
youve basicly said all my favourites
The Clash: White Man in Hammersmith Palais, White Riot, Janie Jones, I Fought the Law, Police and Thieves, Complete Control. London Calling too is that was '70s.
Neil Young: Cortez the Killer, Four Dead in Ohio.
Bob Marley: Redemption Song, Could You Be Loved (both released in 1980 but written in the '70s).
Bob Dylan: Tangled Up in Blue, Shelter from the Storm.
Plus lots of others that I can’t think of right now…
“Float on” by the Floaters. 1977
“Cancer and my name is Larry, huh
And I like a woman that loves everything and everybody
And you know what ladies, if you feel that this is you
Then this is what I want you to do”
I just found out that ‘London Calling’ was 1979 so that one is ok for the list. I was going to have Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division too but apparently that was from 1980. Bah.
Yup was run DMC feat. Aerosmith 
Love most of the songs mentioned, here’e some more;
White light/white heat – Lou Reed
smoke on the water – Three dog
are we not men? – Devo
Psycho Killer – Talking Heads
That includes, needless to say, of course, Love Will Keep Us Together (right?). 
Never heard their version, but I liked what Deep Purple did with that song.
ha ha:D
thank you …I knew something wasn’t right. That song seems like a really long time ago.
I was a kid in the 70s so my favorites were pop.
Sky High - Jigsaw
The Night Chicago Died - Paper Lace
Love is Like Oxygen - Sweet
Rock On - David Essex
Seasons in the Sun - Terry Jacks
Athena - The Who
Dream Weaver - Gary Wright
Afternoon Delight - Starland Vocal Band
Too many Olivia Newton-John songs to mention
Exactly the question I had in mind.
In the 70s, I was crazy about 1950s rock and roll. The contemporary stuff I liked included
“Crazy Little Thing Called Love” (Queen)
“Rockabilly Rebel” (Matchbox)
“Ramalamadingdong” (Rocky Sharpe and the Replays)
I did buy Ace of Spades when it was in the charts!
(And “Coward of the County” by kenny Rogers, but let’s draw a veil over that!)
I also liked Status Quo and the Rolling Stones.
Now as a 40 something, I have The Sex Pistols, Sham 69, Buzzcocks, Ruts, Skids, Slaughter and the Dogs, the Rezillos, Rush, The Exploited, and Angelic Upstarts in my 1970s collection. It’s a mid life crisis thing. (Don’t ask why Rush is in there?)
If I chose one record that I liked then that I still like now, it would be “Ever Fallen in Love With Someone You Shouldn’t Have Fallen in Love With?” by Buzzcocks. The perfect power pop single.
Wow! Nottingham’s finest! My local supergroup! I’m filling up just to think of them. And don’t forget, “Billy, Don’t be a Hero!”
I know you said not to… and it’s a little off-topic, but…
Why is Rush in there? Why are we even asking that question?
Rush has been my all-time favorite band since I discovered them in 1980. Their music and the poetry of their lyrics have been stirring my soul for the last 27 years. There are other bands that I like a lot, but Rush, to me, stands in a category by themselves. Their music is like an old friend. It’s similar to how a best friend is in a different category from all of your other friends. They are the person who answers the question “Who is it?” with “It’s me.” They are the person who is always welcome at your house. They are the person who doesn’t always have to say “thank you” because you know how they feel.
Because if you look at the whole list (The Sex Pistols, Sham 69, Buzzcocks, Ruts, Skids, Slaughter and the Dogs, the Rezillos, Rush, The Exploited, and Angelic Upstarts ) 9 of the 10 are what I would loosely categorise as “punk”. Say what you like about Rush, they could not be loosely categorised as punk.
Possibly you wouldn’t recognise all the names (although “Slaughter and the Dogs” doesn’t sound awfully like the name of a string quartet!) and you wouldn’t have spotted that. It was a throwaway remark. I’ve nothing against Rush. There’s a place for pretentious overblown twaddle in every good music collection.
Sofa No 2 - Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention
Watching the Detectives - Elvis Costello and the Attractions
Milky Way - Syd Barrett
Tales from Topographic Oceans - Yes
Circus of Death - Human League
The music of Mannheim Steamroller does not sound anything like their name suggests, so I make no assumptions. I didn’t recognize any of those names.
Another throwaway remark? If you want pretentious and arrogant, listen to Tangerine Dream. Last time I went to their concert, they basically ignored the audience the whole time. The members of Rush, as far as I can tell, are down-to-earth people. I’m not sure what twaddle means, but it can’t be good. Needless to say, I disagree!
Not sure when it was released, but I’ll add…
“Blinded by the Light”, by Manfred Mann’s Earth Band
Iron Butterfly is 70’s right?
Nope, late 60’s.
Albums:
1968: “Heavy”
1968: Their most successful album had their biggest hit same name as Album: “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida”
1969: “Ball”
Absolutely Iron Butterfly is 70’s. In the same sense that evolution isn’t scientific fact.
