    Default who are the best 70's singer-song writers, duo's, solo artists, songs, etc

    I think the 70's was the most romantic musical/best musical period ever, and i miss it. even thought i wasnt technically around during the 70's

    Dude, Karen Carpenter was my first adolescent crush. Ain't nothing getting over on that. I would have destroyed the planet to have her. When she passed I thought it was the end of world. Beat up my little brother over it!

    I like most of your list. Was never a Neil Diamond fan though. Although, for some reasons, I know all the lyrics to Sweet Caroline.

    She was mine as well. We would have had to either arm wrestle or roll around in the dirt over her! Perfect, clear Alto voice and lovely.

    I saw Neil in concert 4 times....excellent and a showman that actually entertained the crowd and not himself.

    Paul Rodgers (Free, Bad Company)
    James Dewar (Robin Trower)
    Barry White

    Female vocalists:
    Pat Benatar

    You would have lost. That was my woman. And (not so) shockingly, all my GF's wives over the years are tall, brunette and slim. So for all you guys that love blondes? More for me.

    Bull-pockey....back then it would have been fun and we'd end up laughing at each other! And I am not partial to blondes, either!

    No, what would h Becausave happened is we'd beat the crap out of each other and she'd have walked off with some other guy. Because he wasn't violent.
