ROCK ‘N’ ROLL IN 1970S

Many strands of music were woven together in the 70s, such as:

Led Zeppelin, including the legendary Stairway to Heaven.

Bruce Springsteen, whose working-class roots were strongly infused in his

driven ballads like Born to Run.

The thread with the most social impact seemed to be disco( think John

Travolta in Saturday Night Fever)

Disco reached its peak in 1977 with the Bee Gees and

Stayin' Alive

 Punk culture spawned the visually distinctive

goth and emo subcultures.

Impact on Fashion

It prompted guys to wear: colorful shirts tight pants well-cut hair. Girls began to dress in styles again with name brands taking on more

luster. Make-up also made a comeback. 

Echoes of the 60s seemed to play out during the 70s

Simon & Garfunkel The Beatles Marvin Gaye producing new sounds for an

evolving time. The Vietnam war was finally ended, taking

with it much of the urge to protest and be involved in world affairs.
