A community for the love of all music from 1970 to 1979.

Doesn't matter where it's from, if it's musical and you like it, post it here.

RULES:

  1. Always follow all rules of the lemmy.today instance and your own instance.
  2. One song per post title. Try not to post too many times in one community in a single day (no flooding/spamming).
  3. Posted music should play in its entirety, automatically for everyone without needing to login or download anything.
  4. Covers and remixes of older music released in this decade is allowed. Re-releases, remasters, and live performances by the original artist fall under the original release date.
  5. Posts must include the song title, the artist or group, and the year that version of the music was originally released. Additional information is encouraged.
  6. Do not repost the same song, search the community if you are unsure. If a link has gone dead or will not play in your region, you can repost a copy that plays for you.
  7. If the music was uploaded by someone else, please credit them.
  8. If you have additional information about the music, like behind-the-scenes trivia or interesting facts, related content, including that in your post is highly encouraged.
  9. Discussion posts and links to albums or playlists are allowed, as long as there is one playable song in the title.
  10. Do not discuss/call out rulebreaking or community operations in the posts. Report problems using the report function or send a message to a moderator directly.

Excellent adds

I wouldn't call it a "version" but maybe a precursor?

Was teaching a student how to use an upright bass bow- he hadn't heard of rosin and I quoted this tune to him. He replied that he thought it was just a weird southern word for "ready", lmao.
