"Almost everything that happened in the 70s was completely horrible IMO"
Wow I am boggled. The 70s started out with the Stooges (they started before the 70s but hit classic stride in the early 70s), the Ramones, the whole CBGB proto-punks like Television and Richard Hell.
And then punk broke. And it seemed like there were hundreds of great records coming out of London, New York, LA, and even Cleveland (Pere Ubu's Modern Dance). In LA, it was X and the Blasters and the Germs and a hundred others now faded into obscurity.
And in the mainstream side of the 70s, there was the great early David Bowie and the great solo Brian Eno.
I thought the 70s was absolutely a brilliant era for music.
