      Just came across your video today about ‘70’s rock. That David Gilmour sure was the CUTEST & still very handsome, but that’s not why I decided to leave a comment. Skynyrd’s Freebird never gets old, EVER! Neil Young is a Canadian, how dare he say or sing anything about the States when the First Nations people of Canada were being horribly mistreated even murdered from those in authority to catholic church leaders & many others in between. Thanks to the good people of Canada who helped the beautiful First Nations people. Buffy Sainte Marie is a famous ‘60’s folk singer, she is one of many talented indigenous from Canada.

    I was looking for an in depth documentary on 70' music and was surprised that there wasn't much offered. As the years pass, it becomes more and more obvious what an important time this was for popular music. Then I came upon this doc and gave it a shot. I couldn't have asked for more. It including everything I was looking for, and covered the groups and events in an intelligent and well articulated manner. The comic relief was welcome as well. I'll be watching it again and checking out more of your videos. And by the way, I lived through the decade and remember it well. You did it justice.

    Black Sabbath "Paranoid".
    Led Zeppelin "Led Zeppelin II"

    Say, J.T., I've heard it said that punk came around because some just wanted to make some fun music that anyone could learn to play, reaching back to the old 12 or 16-bar three-chord rock of the '50s. Of course, with modern pick-ups, amps, and tech, it made it what it was. That was what I was told. I was hoping you could support or debunk that for me and help me clarify that in my head.

  • @jonathanedwards8696
    @jonathanedwards8696 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    For a youngster, I was pretty impressed with your choices, (with a few corrections.) The quintessential progressive rock album was "In the Court of the Crimson King," (1969), by King Crimson. NOT "Dark Side." Between 1969 and 1975 King Crimson put out the most incredible albums of the decade. You might not know this, but a lot of King Crimson's work was recorded live on stage! They had the balls to get up in front of thousands of people and do total improvisations! And, If you going to highlight John Bonham, why not highlight Bill Bruford, the original drummer for Yes, who left Yes to play with King Crimson. He then went on to form U.K., tour with Genesis, then start his own band with English guitar wizard Alan Holdsworth. How's that for a resume? Please more of a Hurrah! for Joan Jett. She wasn't the first woman to strap on an electric guitar, (Sister Rossetta Sharpe), but she was the first to do it with attitude. I've been playing the drums for over 50 years and the saxophone for 30. I was 15 in 1970. How old were you? You forget The Faces, and you forgot The Band, the original roots rock band. I'm glad you didn't mention Rush, I don't like them. The saxophone and rock have a long history, I'd like to see a video on that. The last bands to use saxophone were The E Street Band, Huey Lewis and the News, Pink Floyd, and Supertramp. It's time to bring it back.

    • @JTCurtisMusic

    Ok. Hear me out on this. The absolute best song pairing is ... Layla ... fading in to Even In The Quietest Moments. Some nighttime DJ did this and I managed to capture it on a cassette tape. It became my "reset mix". Layla winds you up, and then EITQM relaxes the hell out of you. The crossfade this guy did between the two was brilliant. It wasn't just "this ends, this begins". But if that's all you can get, it still works. Not a pairing most people would think of, but a great stress reliever. Give it a try.

    I totally enjoyed your presentation. It was not only on target and captivating, but it was really funny and entertaining at the same time. I did notice even in the Extras segment that you forgot a couple of important groups: the band Chicago was a '70s staple and a phenomenal group, and their musical arrangements incorporating horns into a rock groove were practically unique (Blood Sweat and Tears were the original innovators of this style). Another overlooked popular prog group was Supertramp. By the time they released "Breakfast in America," the band, with their excellent hits, were a household name. Also, somehow you forgot to mention the Talking Heads. I wasn't personally a huge new wave fan, but I totally loved Talking Heads, especially their 70's albums like "More Songs about Buildings and Food"- they were so cool! While we're on "kitchy" and "wavy," the B-52's could have been mentioned, as they were a hoot and extremely popular. Also, a correction on Led Zeppelin- the opening clip of the live Zep footage had a caption that indicated it was from 1971, but it was in fact from the film, "The Song Remains the Same," which was shot during the 1973 tour. Again, a phenomenal job, and I look forward to checking out more of your videos!

    What about Genesis? You forgot them. They deserved at least a mention.
    Peter Gabriel is one of the most important, original and marvelous artists of all time, with Genesis and solo, then I hope that you will dedicate some time to him in the next video about '80s, because he definitely was one of the biggest in that decade, with experimental pop-rock, a blend of electronic and world music, remaining accessible.
    You made a very entertaining video, and I like it, but I wished you would mention Genesis with one/two songs: "Firth of Fifth" has one of the best guitar solos ever, Steve Hackett pioneered tapping in rock music (listen to "The Musical Box" and "The Return of the Giant Hogweed" from their "Nursery Cryme" album), Peter Gabriel was a creative prodigy, and he was not less important than David Bowie, as regards stage persona, make-up and costumes.
    Peter and David were pioneers in the same time (it was a question of months and it is very difficult to say who came first with the idea of wearing glam costumes). Anyway, I think Gabriel was less pop, and he created a sort of art which went beyond the limits of rock music.
    I really like and respect David Bowie, but for me Peter Gabriel was (and is) way more brilliant.

      PaulGenesis well I knew this was bound to come up. In cutting down the list, not including anything from LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY was a tough call, but one of the reasons was I couldn’t find any good footage of them performing from that tour. In fact, similarly, there’s no footage of Pink Floyd playing DARK SIDE at the time (but there was no way I could leave DARK SIDE out). I may make a second little video where we go through some extra stuff and Genesis will definitely be included.
