A few of my favorites that immediately come to mind:

Harry Nilsson - jump into the fire is as good as it gets for a 70s rock song

Blood Sweat and Tears - the first album with David Clayton Thomas as lead singer is a great rock and roll horn band album

You can have Blood, Sweat and Tears but Harry Nilsson is the man. Nilsson Schmilsson and A Little Touch of Nilsson In the Night are fantastic albums.

The Sweet is a good one
They were a big influence on the glam/hair bands of the 80s

Jump into the fire has the tastiest bass I think I ever heard.

I say ELO is underrated for their contribution in the 70s.

The Strawbs come to mind for some reason though I haven't listened to them since the 70's.

Shoot out the Lights is a top ten all time album. I love all of his stuff without Linda.

I saw Nazareth live. they opened for the Marshall Tucker Band. It was two different genres of fans. it was pretty weird.
