Not that its my favorite decade for music (and actually a lot
of crap came out of it, namely disco and punk), but the 70s do
have lots of good bands and songs.

There are nonetheless some bands who created great stuff and
are not known by most people. They recognize the songs usually
because they’ve heard a cover version. Here are 3 of them…

T-Rex – Bang a Gong (Get It On)
