The 70s was a decade that had fingers and feet twitching with the birth the Rubik’s Cube and the invention of the skateboard, it was a decade that whole-heartedly embraced denim and bell-bottoms were all the rage and it was an epic decade for music which embraced a more diverse gamut than ever before. Who can forget the sparkle of disco, the punk, the funk, the hard rock, soft rock and prog rock, the glitter of glam rock and even hip-hop which started in the 70s?
In this new album NOW 100 Hits Forgotten 70s, NOW Music takes you on a trip down memory lane but not with the obvious big tracks of the decade but rather it’s a jam-packed album with all those hits that might now be forgotten from some of the best loved artists of the time like Rock On by the heartthrob David Essex, All Of Me Loves All Of You by Scottish teen idols the Bay City Rollers and Something Tells Me (Something’s Gonna Happen Tonight) by UK National treasure Cilla Black.
It also includes Do You Know Where You’re Going To by the queen of the 70’s Diana Ross and A Thing Called Love by the legendary Johnny Cash. And who remembers Eurovision winning track All Kinds of Everything by Dana, Circles which was released by The New Seekers at the peak of their fame and the number one hit Welcome Home by pop duo Peters & Lee.
The 70s was a decade that experimented and celebrated the widest range of music styles and included some of the very best-known musicians of all time. So, whether you were a disco queen, a diva, a hippy, a mod, a rocker or a punk NOW 100 Hits Forgotten 70s will have a tune that you may have forgotten.
NOW 100 Hits Forgotten 70s are available in physical and digital format and on the NOW app.
