Description
Rock Of The 70’s Volume 1 is a well-assembled CD sampler of hard rock and power pop gems from one of music’s most diverse decades. The disc opens with The Knack’s irresistible ‘My Sharona’ and moves through Sweet’s glam-stomp ‘Ballroom Blitz’ and Focus’s extraordinary prog-rock workout ‘Hocus Pocus,’ a track that remains one of the most jaw-dropping pieces of 70s rock on record. Pat Benatar’s ‘Heartbreaker,’ The Raspberries’ ‘Go All The Way,’ and Lynyrd Skynyrd’s ‘What’s Your Name’ round out a lineup that spans power pop, arena rock, and Southern rock with ease. This CD makes an excellent introduction to the era or a solid addition to any classic rock collection…
