70's music

Just watching a program about Island Records and I must admit that I'd forgotten a whole bunch of stuff they released. Not only that, the 70's clearly wasn't as much of a wasteland as many people seem to think.

When the Bob Marley album Exodus was out, the album chart was:

Arrival - ABBA
Hotel California - The Eagles
A New World Record - ELO
Exodus - Bob Marley
Deceptive Bends - 10cc

What a top 5! 3 are still well known classics, and believe me Deceptive Bends was hugely successful.

I think we would struggle to find similar in the noughties.
