This week wraps up my very brief overview of the music of 1970. I didn't want to repeat artists or albums that produced several creative, long-lasting songs. Artists like Neil Young, Led Zepellin, The Beach Boys, Three Dog Night, Wishbone Ash, Procul Harum, Cat Stevens, Paul McCartney, Van Morrison, and John Lennon, all released incredibly brilliant albums with songs that are still being sung today. This show features classics you know well, like Edwin Starr's "War" and Santana's "Samba pa it," as well as songs you've never heard before (or maybe forgotten), like Wishbone Ash's "Phoenix" and Todd Rundgren's "Birthday song." 

I may conduct a contest in the near future for listeners to vote on the most creative year in music. It's safe to say that 1970 would be in the top 3, and quite possibly should wind up #1.
