List Your Favorite Songs from the 70’s courtesy of Music Listography : Your Life In (Play)Lists
Editor’s Note: Wow, this one was even harder, probably because this decade was my childhood and I remember so many songs from my mother’s collection, and as the years went on, my collection, of records. I have such a love of the music from the 70’s, much more than I realized until I start combing through the years. Here’s 43, because honestly, I could not narrow down more than I did with the 60’s, and it is my age today.
