A whole bunch of those are great. Sure the era had some bad music, every era does. But there was a lot of great stuff.

Oh for the late '20s and early '30s, when the hippest thing happening on both coasts was the so-called 'Pansy Craze':

The two songs that the defined the '70s for me because I used to hear it constantly on the radio. 
:doh:
Abba -- Fernando
Would you believe that my Dad had the 45?

Bohemian Rhapsody, American Woman, I Feel the Earth Move (that one is a bit of a sentimental one though, it is my mom's favorite song), to name a few. Bridge over Troubled Water is not Simon and Garfunkle's best, but it isn't bad. Don't think it was in that medley, but the song War (what is it good for) is always fun.

If anyone honestly thinks the 70s had no good music, they're just without taste. Every decade - even the 80s did!
