some of my favorite 70s albums: (try to do some that aren't already mentioned)

Roxy Music - any album until Manifesto
Jon Cale - Paris 1919
Brian Eno - Another Green World (or any of his "pop" stuff)
Can - Tago Mago and Future Days
XTC - Drums and Wires
Wire - Pink Flag and Chairs Missing
Devo - Are we not Men....

and then a bunch of prog in the early to mid 70s and a bunch of post punk in the late 70s

Disclaimer- all of the below are mainstream

The eagles first couple albums, like desperado where they went all cowboy- kinda interesting since there really was a Doolin dalton gang and they got shot up bad. Bernie Leadon on guitar made a difference

badfinger- and their tragic story

Alice Cooper-

Marshal tucker band- fire on the mountain from searchin for a rainbow

very early Scorpions- like "im going mad" out of lonesome crow

Year of the Cat- al stewart

Blow by Blow- Jeff Beck

The 70s were so awesome for music

I guess it depends on what you were listening to in the 70's- were you alive then?

Some of the albums that may have not been mentioned-none that are real obscure but are excellent 70's reference music. Listen to these albums, read the liner notes and it will take you to a world of music. Have fun...

War: The World is a Ghetto and Deliver the Word
Doobie Brothers-Toulouse Street
Harry Nilsson-Nilsson Schmilsson
Paul and Linda McCartney-Ram
Alice Cooper-Billion Dollar Babies
Rick Wakeman-Journey to the Center of the Earth
Mike Oldfield-Tubular Bells
Sex Pistols-Never Mind the Bollocks
Bread-Baby I'm-a Want You
Three Dog Night-Harmony
Stevie Wonder-Innervisions
Quiet Sun-Mainstream

I was alive in the 70s, but just a little kid.

I like almost everything. I love disco, punk, most 70s metal, pop, post punk, funk, jazz. Hell I even like a good bit of 70s country.

Will take a look at your list.
