Just came across your video today about ‘70’s rock. That David Gilmour sure was the CUTEST & still very handsome, but that’s not why I decided to leave a comment. Skynyrd’s Freebird never gets old, EVER! Neil Young is a Canadian, how dare he say or sing anything about the States when the First Nations people of Canada were being horribly mistreated even murdered from those in authority to catholic church leaders & many others in between. Thanks to the good people of Canada who helped the beautiful First Nations people. Buffy Sainte Marie is a famous ‘60’s folk singer, she is one of many talented indigenous from Canada.
I was looking for an in depth documentary on 70' music and was surprised that there wasn't much offered. As the years pass, it becomes more and more obvious what an important time this was for popular music. Then I came upon this doc and gave it a shot. I couldn't have asked for more. It including everything I was looking for, and covered the groups and events in an intelligent and well articulated manner. The comic relief was welcome as well. I'll be watching it again and checking out more of your videos. And by the way, I lived through the decade and remember it well. You did it justice.

JT - Your series was nothing short of freakin’ excellent! Loved the humor and you guys showcased your talents in a really tasteful way! Binged right through the series and I’m gonna watch it again! History of Rock is a challenging subject and you guys really did it justice!!
absolutely wicked videos, have recommended them to my dad. I've always wanted someone to just do me a timeline about the evolution of rock music because even though I'm fully aware of everything you're talking about and all the bands, I'm just too lazy to imagine it all for myself, so thank you
@@jessiehermit9503 JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is a manga/anime series. The author of the manga was a huge fan of Western culture and named many characters/stands after the music
I just discovered this video today while searching for some classic rock escapism to help. I can't thank you enough for making this series and Making me the happiest I've been all week. ❤️
I enjoyed this 1970's rock documentary. Classic rock was everywhere and it enjoyed it all. I bought hundreds of LPs and cassettes and still have them all. Long live rock and roll.
Jorge Guarda well Rush is coming in the 80s 😉 and I’m now starting to kick myself in the pants for not including LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY but we’ll possibly make an extras video.
JTCurtisMusic well, I guess you could argue that their most popular work is Moving Pictures (love Roll the bones too) and that is 80s...but that’s like saying Yes is also 80s because of 90125 and Big Generator...not to mention Genesis...but I forgive you ;) Looking forward to your future videos. Cheers!
Not necessarily. If you go on itunes, Yes' most downloaded song is "Roundabout" which came out in the 70s. Rush's most downloaded song is "Tom Sawyer" which came in the 80s.
How could you forget Carole King? She had one of the most popular albums of all time with Tapestry. Her unique blend of folk, rock, and pop music definitely earns her a place in rock history.
@@randomgeekstuff7078 thank you for the info. (When I first saw this comment, I thought someone was calling me an "angry video game nerd" - LOL) You're invited to read my blog. No ads, I don't make money from it. Just light entertainment and information. Blue Collar Lit.
Thank you for the putting the time into this video. It really gave me a good main road to search some side streets. I’ve been a music lover all my life but just never really studied the 60’s and 70’s. It’s amazing how much good stuff you find that you never heard when you start to dig. To put it nicely, if they quit production of cars... An AMC Javelin would become new again. Loved the Lebowski quote!!!! Check out Linda Ronstadt willin live 1976
8:12 Oh man..... back when I was performing in a rock school, I had to learn this synth part, and it was absolute hell on earth! You couldn't mess up the timing while also jumping from note to note on your hand over the next couple of riffs performed back to back.
Dudes, this is a great series! I'm entertained and educated and reminded of great songs that I'd forgotten about or never even heard of:)))) Zeppelin for life, though haha. To be fair it helps that I'm only 17 so didn't have to deal with the Zeppelin radio oversaturation. Anyway great job tho. I was sent here by TJ Skyen and am not sorry. Keep it up!
What an amazing series/channel I’ve stumbled upon. Been bingeing your rock history, album reviews, and playlist videos. The history video are a perfect balance of education and humor with a lot of great old clips edited in throughout. Thanks for your effort and your dedication to the rock gods. Also I’m aware this is years after but very sorry to hear about your dad(assuming Jay is your dad) he was always funny in the videos and clearly taught you well!! Thanks again for all your content :)
Excellent work ,probably my favourite of your decade shows .Yeah the music is great but I think this is the one where you get the humour blended in just right...Oh,and i'm very jealous of your musical talent.
I knew it was coming.... I was waiting patiently for the Ramones, The Sex Pistols and the Clash. Well done JT. I have been showing your videos, starting at the 1950's in my high school Humanities class. Thank goodness they are all seniors, the drug references required some disclaimers before viewing....haha.
@@nickklein8163 speaking of JT, how about a second for Johnny Thunders (and The Heartbreakers) inspired both The Ramones and Sex Pistols. Just saying...cool he mentioned The Dolls though
Jim Gordon didn't write the beautiful piano coda to Layla. Rita Coolidge wrote it, and Gordon took it without ever giving her the credit. At least that's what I heard.
Say, J.T., I've heard it said that punk came around because some just wanted to make some fun music that anyone could learn to play, reaching back to the old 12 or 16-bar three-chord rock of the '50s. Of course, with modern pick-ups, amps, and tech, it made it what it was. That was what I was told. I was hoping you could support or debunk that for me and help me clarify that in my head.
LOVE the presentation and humor dude! I'm only 23 but I think the 70s had some of the best ever music! Your Zeppelin guy is exactly how I react to Genesis
Great video but you can't forget iconic rock legends AC/DC who had heavy blues inspired riffs and solos from Angus Young and really put Australia on the map
I wish that the sex pistols had a greater focus in the punk section. They’re one of the most influential groups around despite only having one album and being around for 3 years. I feel like a less than minute long section discussing them is a little underwhelming
Finally the ex-Beatles surface at 56:54 ! I’m so relieved I’ll almost forgive you the lack of even a glancing nod at the folk-rock-jazz polymath Joni Mitchell in this or your 60s video.
Francisco Torres 37:55 you’ll hear Boston doing “More than a Feeling,” but yes, sadly ELO was cut out. We’ll have to add them for a possible extras video.
Yes Terry kath Electra glide in blue Terry shoots Wintergreen off his bike "Robert Blake" Remember folks guns are ALWAYS loaded. A Chistmas story, Ralphie "You'll shoot your eye out". Terry shot himself by accident.
Well 'guitarmonies' has just become the latest addition to my vocabulary. It's genius and it waa right there in front of me all this time yet I didn't see it. Bravo sir!
Can you tubers hire technical experts to manipulate the algorithm so that their videos will come to the attention of more people? I wonder about this sometimes.
Might be worth changing the video category to "Education" to protect you a little bit. I just came form another video where you talk about a strike on the 1980's video.
For a youngster, I was pretty impressed with your choices, (with a few corrections.) The quintessential progressive rock album was "In the Court of the Crimson King," (1969), by King Crimson. NOT "Dark Side." Between 1969 and 1975 King Crimson put out the most incredible albums of the decade. You might not know this, but a lot of King Crimson's work was recorded live on stage! They had the balls to get up in front of thousands of people and do total improvisations! And, If you going to highlight John Bonham, why not highlight Bill Bruford, the original drummer for Yes, who left Yes to play with King Crimson. He then went on to form U.K., tour with Genesis, then start his own band with English guitar wizard Alan Holdsworth. How's that for a resume? Please more of a Hurrah! for Joan Jett. She wasn't the first woman to strap on an electric guitar, (Sister Rossetta Sharpe), but she was the first to do it with attitude. I've been playing the drums for over 50 years and the saxophone for 30. I was 15 in 1970. How old were you? You forget The Faces, and you forgot The Band, the original roots rock band. I'm glad you didn't mention Rush, I don't like them. The saxophone and rock have a long history, I'd like to see a video on that. The last bands to use saxophone were The E Street Band, Huey Lewis and the News, Pink Floyd, and Supertramp. It's time to bring it back.
You should check out History of Rock 50s if you wanna hear more about how the saxophone was incorporated at the birth of rock and roll. I mentioned The Band in the 60s video.
What about Genesis? You forgot them. They deserved at least a mention. Peter Gabriel is one of the most important, original and marvelous artists of all time, with Genesis and solo, then I hope that you will dedicate some time to him in the next video about '80s, because he definitely was one of the biggest in that decade, with experimental pop-rock, a blend of electronic and world music, remaining accessible. You made a very entertaining video, and I like it, but I wished you would mention Genesis with one/two songs: "Firth of Fifth" has one of the best guitar solos ever, Steve Hackett pioneered tapping in rock music (listen to "The Musical Box" and "The Return of the Giant Hogweed" from their "Nursery Cryme" album), Peter Gabriel was a creative prodigy, and he was not less important than David Bowie, as regards stage persona, make-up and costumes. Peter and David were pioneers in the same time (it was a question of months and it is very difficult to say who came first with the idea of wearing glam costumes). Anyway, I think Gabriel was less pop, and he created a sort of art which went beyond the limits of rock music. I really like and respect David Bowie, but for me Peter Gabriel was (and is) way more brilliant.
PaulGenesis well I knew this was bound to come up. In cutting down the list, not including anything from LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY was a tough call, but one of the reasons was I couldn’t find any good footage of them performing from that tour. In fact, similarly, there’s no footage of Pink Floyd playing DARK SIDE at the time (but there was no way I could leave DARK SIDE out). I may make a second little video where we go through some extra stuff and Genesis will definitely be included.
Ok. Hear me out on this. The absolute best song pairing is ... Layla ... fading in to Even In The Quietest Moments. Some nighttime DJ did this and I managed to capture it on a cassette tape. It became my "reset mix". Layla winds you up, and then EITQM relaxes the hell out of you. The crossfade this guy did between the two was brilliant. It wasn't just "this ends, this begins". But if that's all you can get, it still works. Not a pairing most people would think of, but a great stress reliever. Give it a try.
You played Bad Company but the band before them with many hits and with a superior sound and more credibility was Free - both of those bands featured possibly the best vocalist in that style Paul Rogers.
8:39 This was another riff I learned in rock school. It wasn't as challenging as Baba O'Riley, but it did give me some interesting handwork and coordination as well.
Oh...my...God! I am old enough to remember that sequence with Stevie Wonder doing that rendition of "Superstition" on Sesame Street when it happened! Ugh...I feel old! (IMHO, best live version of that I've ever heard by him...but there could be others of which I am not aware...)
I totally enjoyed your presentation. It was not only on target and captivating, but it was really funny and entertaining at the same time. I did notice even in the Extras segment that you forgot a couple of important groups: the band Chicago was a '70s staple and a phenomenal group, and their musical arrangements incorporating horns into a rock groove were practically unique (Blood Sweat and Tears were the original innovators of this style). Another overlooked popular prog group was Supertramp. By the time they released "Breakfast in America," the band, with their excellent hits, were a household name. Also, somehow you forgot to mention the Talking Heads. I wasn't personally a huge new wave fan, but I totally loved Talking Heads, especially their 70's albums like "More Songs about Buildings and Food"- they were so cool! While we're on "kitchy" and "wavy," the B-52's could have been mentioned, as they were a hoot and extremely popular. Also, a correction on Led Zeppelin- the opening clip of the live Zep footage had a caption that indicated it was from 1971, but it was in fact from the film, "The Song Remains the Same," which was shot during the 1973 tour. Again, a phenomenal job, and I look forward to checking out more of your videos!
I grew up in the 70's. You look too young to remember it, but this was a very accurate summary. There were a few bands that got tons of airplay back then that you didn't include, but I mostly didn't like them because they were horribly overplayed (then, and now on classic rock stations), so I'm OK with that.
I'm really enjoying the series so far. Awesome presentation on the 70s, although I was hoping for some ELO. Keep up the good work and I'm looking forward to the 80s presentation (maybe some Traveling Wilburys, Def Leppard and [I know it's not really rock and roll but] Whitney Houston would be great additions)
34:51 I HAVE NO F*****G TIME FOR THESE RANDOM ANIME REFERENCES. I'M TRYING TO DO A G**-***N VIDEO ON THE HISTORY OF ROCK & ROLL, AND YOU'RE RUNING IT FOR ME!!!
So, the 80s video needs to come out this weekend so I can use it as reference for my History of Rock class that I start teaching next week! These are great!!
I'm just at the Led Zeppelin part. The hardest part for JT must've been to keep a straight face. Yeah, the beginning is gloomy, the loss of Jimi, Janis and Jim and the Kent State shootings. Update: I liked the Queen part. Your beautiful neighbor is good on the keyboards! Update #2: The only thing missing was Chicago, the pioneers of "jazz rock."
Brilliant video. Nice work. ELO and Toto were also children of the 70's that made a name for themselves. Strong ties between Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty in the 80's too. Keep up the great work.
Jiminy Hendrix was a paratrooper with the 101st airborne division in Vietnam. Barry Oakley's crash was within 3 blocks of where Duane crashed. Keith Moon, the Octopus. RIP I got to meet Tony Iommi after a Sabbath concert. Yes, he invented his own fingertips after he cut one off and part of another off at work.
I know I'm late to the party here (like 4 years...) but I just recently watched this video, and liked it alot, but it would've been cool to talk about the jazz Fusion that peaked then (return to forever, Jeff becks forays into that genre, jean luc ponty, just to name afew), also Chicago's and santanas best years (in my opinion) I know there's a lot of ground to cover though. It was a great time for music. Except for disco....
A good point, I probably had it in my mind to mention Jeff Beck's BLOW BY BLOW, probably also Mahavishnu Orchestra, Weather Report, but it all just got lost in the shuffle.
Before you comment about how (Insert 70s band here) isn't in the video, watch our EXTRAS video where we went through some bands / artists we didn't get to the first time:

not sure what record you refer to, but 'the World is a ghetto' always will stand out in my mind.
@@williamlangan5902 anything from the early-mid '70's by CHICAGO was great. after Kath died ,well, it wasn't the same.

Thank you Patrick! It is indeed a lot of research to get through, but I enjoy it, and we have a lot of fun with our silly humor.
Just rewatching this and, wow, your dad was hilarious! Always stole the show in these videos. Rest in peace
*Peace
absolutely wicked videos, have recommended them to my dad. I've always wanted someone to just do me a timeline about the evolution of rock music because even though I'm fully aware of everything you're talking about and all the bands, I'm just too lazy to imagine it all for myself, so thank you
The 70s is by far the best era for Rock and Roll, the amount of brilliant songs is endless
Rock n roll ended in the 70s. I am an 80s kid, we were only spin offs but that s how it evolved and it s okay.
I just watched your 50s, 60s and now 70s rock and roll history and it feels like these videos were made yesterday.
Awesome 🎉
I really appreciate you dude. These videos must have taken a tremendous amount of work, but they came out really great.
THANK YOU NOTIFICATION! I'm loving your videos Curtis and have been pumped for this installment of your history of rock and roll series.
One thing I'm learning with this series is how young these iconic musicians/Rockers were. So young as so influential.
god there's so many JoJo stands named from this decade holy shit...
great video man. can't wait for the next one in a year or two.
What's a Jojo Stand?
@@jessiehermit9503 Stands are a type of superpower that originates from the popular Japanese Manga and Anime series, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
@@jessiehermit9503 JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is a manga/anime series. The author of the manga was a huge fan of Western culture and named many characters/stands after the music
I just discovered this video today while searching for some classic rock escapism to help. I can't thank you enough for making this series and Making me the happiest I've been all week. ❤️
I enjoyed this 1970's rock documentary. Classic rock was everywhere and it enjoyed it all. I bought hundreds of LPs and cassettes and still have them all. Long live rock and roll.
My god how does such a well made video get so few views? Amaaaazing work man, keep it up!!!
Spread the word bro!
Over 100k!
Gotta be up early tomorrow, it's 12:30 but this is more important than sleep
How could you not mention Genesis and Rush! There’s just so much damn good music in that decade. Love your videos man! Keep up the good work.
Jorge Guarda well Rush is coming in the 80s 😉 and I’m now starting to kick myself in the pants for not including LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY but we’ll possibly make an extras video.
JTCurtisMusic well, I guess you could argue that their most popular work is Moving Pictures (love Roll the bones too) and that is 80s...but that’s like saying Yes is also 80s because of 90125 and Big Generator...not to mention Genesis...but I forgive you ;) Looking forward to your future videos. Cheers!
Not necessarily. If you go on itunes, Yes' most downloaded song is "Roundabout" which came out in the 70s. Rush's most downloaded song is "Tom Sawyer" which came in the 80s.
JTCurtisMusic I was thinking more in terms of commercial success, but I guess you’re right, and it depends how you measure that.
King crimson too!
How could you forget Carole King? She had one of the most popular albums of all time with Tapestry. Her unique blend of folk, rock, and pop music definitely earns her a place in rock history.
This is such a good video, like a music-oriented avgn, thank you for all your work on this.
Being compared to AVGN is an enormous compliment!
Hall&Oats not here?
Major effort was put into this, a very educational video. Thank you so much for sharing your love for music with us.
We just watched this one in music class. We’re probably gonna watch your 80s one next class
I’m taking the history of rock n roll in college and your videos help me so much!!! Thankyou for covering these topics!
Thank you!
I'm in love with these videos. It's like if AVGN made a music documentary. Amazing!
An enormous compliment thank you :)
What is AVGN?
@@bluecollarlit angry video game nerd, it’s another series on RUclips
@@randomgeekstuff7078 thank you for the info. (When I first saw this comment, I thought someone was calling me an "angry video game nerd" - LOL)
You're invited to read my blog.
No ads, I don't make money from it. Just light entertainment and information.
Blue Collar Lit.
The 3 guitar army was not boring and FreeBird was not written about/for Duane ALLMAN! It was written before he died….
Thank you for the putting the time into this video. It really gave me a good main road to search some side streets. I’ve been a music lover all my life but just never really studied the 60’s and 70’s. It’s amazing how much good stuff you find that you never heard when you start to dig. To put it nicely, if they quit production of cars... An AMC Javelin would become new again. Loved the Lebowski quote!!!! Check out Linda Ronstadt willin live 1976
8:12 Oh man..... back when I was performing in a rock school, I had to learn this synth part, and it was absolute hell on earth! You couldn't mess up the timing while also jumping from note to note on your hand over the next couple of riffs performed back to back.
Wow! I've waited a long time to see this, and it's SOOOOOO worth the wait. Hello from the frozen North of Scotland. xx
Dudes, this is a great series! I'm entertained and educated and reminded of great songs that I'd forgotten about or never even heard of:))))
Zeppelin for life, though haha. To be fair it helps that I'm only 17 so didn't have to deal with the Zeppelin radio oversaturation.
Anyway great job tho. I was sent here by TJ Skyen and am not sorry. Keep it up!
What an amazing series/channel I’ve stumbled upon. Been bingeing your rock history, album reviews, and playlist videos. The history video are a perfect balance of education and humor with a lot of great old clips edited in throughout. Thanks for your effort and your dedication to the rock gods. Also I’m aware this is years after but very sorry to hear about your dad(assuming Jay is your dad) he was always funny in the videos and clearly taught you well!! Thanks again for all your content :)
Thank you. Yes Jay was my father and a very big reason this series exists.
Glad you showed footage from the 1977 Hollywood Bowl Lynard Skynard show. That rendition of Free Bird is my favorite video of all time of any genre.
I LOVE THESE! Thank you for making music history interesting and fun for the young ones tryna learn🤩
They should mention the Village People 😄
Excellent work ,probably my favourite of your decade shows .Yeah the music is great but I think this is the one where you get the humour blended in just right...Oh,and i'm very jealous of your musical talent.
Thank God he mentioned the Ramones, I was getting scared.
LOL, you really think I'd go through the 70s without talking about The Ramones?
I knew it was coming.... I was waiting patiently for the Ramones, The Sex Pistols and the Clash. Well done JT. I have been showing your videos, starting at the 1950's in my high school Humanities class. Thank goodness they are all seniors, the drug references required some disclaimers before viewing....haha.
@@nickklein8163 speaking of JT, how about a second for Johnny Thunders (and The Heartbreakers) inspired both The Ramones and Sex Pistols. Just saying...cool he mentioned The Dolls though
Rest in peace Jay Curtis.
Whoever you were, you must’ve been great
He plays the Hippie bum and was our original director
Jim Gordon didn't write the beautiful piano coda to Layla.
Rita Coolidge wrote it, and Gordon took it without ever giving her the credit.
At least that's what I heard.
I heard that too, though it really came to light after this video was made.
I've been listening to your R & R vids, and it's been entertaining, and all right on where you've put emphasis
BRO THE LAYLA RIFF IS AMAZING AND YOU PLAYED IT WAS VERY AMAZING
15:33 "could sometimes be a little out of place given the blues sound". That was the point and what makes it so cool.
Say, J.T., I've heard it said that punk came around because some just wanted to make some fun music that anyone could learn to play, reaching back to the old 12 or 16-bar three-chord rock of the '50s. Of course, with modern pick-ups, amps, and tech, it made it what it was. That was what I was told. I was hoping you could support or debunk that for me and help me clarify that in my head.
This video was awesome to watch didnt realise an hour was passed. Really loved this video, thanks once again ☺️
LOVE the presentation and humor dude! I'm only 23 but I think the 70s had some of the best ever music! Your Zeppelin guy is exactly how I react to Genesis
Great video but you can't forget iconic rock legends AC/DC who had heavy blues inspired riffs and solos from Angus Young and really put Australia on the map
This is true, but we are saving them as they happen to have a very iconic album that came out in 1980...
Australia now have "Taj Farrant"
A Scottish band put Australia on the map
I love your videos. Can’t wait to see your 80’s video.
Love your work. Looks like you will be my first patron subscription.
I wish that the sex pistols had a greater focus in the punk section. They’re one of the most influential groups around despite only having one album and being around for 3 years. I feel like a less than minute long section discussing them is a little underwhelming
Finally the ex-Beatles surface at 56:54 ! I’m so relieved I’ll almost forgive you the lack of even a glancing nod at the folk-rock-jazz polymath Joni Mitchell in this or your 60s video.
Definitely my favorite decade of music.
That was an amazing video. Especially that you mentioned Knife Edge, Thick as a Brick and Maggot Brain. Also it was so funny. Keep it up!
Great video man! You rocked it again but, You forgot to mention ELO and Boston. Thanks for video again! See you soon! 😁
Francisco Torres 37:55 you’ll hear Boston doing “More than a Feeling,” but yes, sadly ELO was cut out. We’ll have to add them for a possible extras video.
JTCurtisMusic thanks man!
FREE BIRD!!!!
Best History of Rock series on the internet
The seventies will always be my favourite decade. Most of my favourite albums were from the seventies. I just think that it is an amazing decade.
HOOOOOOOOW Did they forget RAM JAMS BLACK BETTY FROM 1977 , And HOLD THE LINE By TOTO FROM 1978 HOOOOOOOOOW LOL
That was brilliant! Well worth the wait, you guys smashed it. Top stuff
don’t forget Bob Seager and The Silver Bullet Band
that was taken out due to copyright sadly
Loved this video. Gonna add all kinds of 70s music to my phone
Loved the video, but where is Chicago in all of this?

I love the production values on these videos. I especially love the way JT pronounces "Quinten-sential"
31:05 anyone know where that interview is on RUclips? I really NEED to hear it
It's not on RUclips unfortunately.
JTCurtisMusic You know what the interview is called by any chance or anything?
Insane how work like this doesnt have more than a million views

Can you tubers hire technical experts to manipulate the algorithm so that their videos will come to the attention of more people?
I wonder about this sometimes.
@43:06: Tight harmonies, guys! I love it!
Really good video, very well researched, glad I found this
You forgot to put Styx, and ted nugent on here though
Might be worth changing the video category to "Education" to protect you a little bit. I just came form another video where you talk about a strike on the 1980's video.
I watched this last night, and damn, that transition into the DSOTM section has been in my head all of today.
Thank you! It's a favorite of mine as well.
Stairway to heaven gives me such good memories 😌
I knew the jo jo reference was coming when i heard roundabout
This is a masterpiece!
this is awesome!!!! love your channel!!! you should have a million subscribers!!!!!
40:05 bit suspicious that he automatically grabs a 12 strings
For a youngster, I was pretty impressed with your choices, (with a few corrections.) The quintessential progressive rock album was "In the Court of the Crimson King," (1969), by King Crimson. NOT "Dark Side." Between 1969 and 1975 King Crimson put out the most incredible albums of the decade. You might not know this, but a lot of King Crimson's work was recorded live on stage! They had the balls to get up in front of thousands of people and do total improvisations! And, If you going to highlight John Bonham, why not highlight Bill Bruford, the original drummer for Yes, who left Yes to play with King Crimson. He then went on to form U.K., tour with Genesis, then start his own band with English guitar wizard Alan Holdsworth. How's that for a resume? Please more of a Hurrah! for Joan Jett. She wasn't the first woman to strap on an electric guitar, (Sister Rossetta Sharpe), but she was the first to do it with attitude. I've been playing the drums for over 50 years and the saxophone for 30. I was 15 in 1970. How old were you? You forget The Faces, and you forgot The Band, the original roots rock band. I'm glad you didn't mention Rush, I don't like them. The saxophone and rock have a long history, I'd like to see a video on that. The last bands to use saxophone were The E Street Band, Huey Lewis and the News, Pink Floyd, and Supertramp. It's time to bring it back.
You should check out History of Rock 50s if you wanna hear more about how the saxophone was incorporated at the birth of rock and roll.
I mentioned The Band in the 60s video.
What about Genesis? You forgot them. They deserved at least a mention.
Peter Gabriel is one of the most important, original and marvelous artists of all time, with Genesis and solo, then I hope that you will dedicate some time to him in the next video about '80s, because he definitely was one of the biggest in that decade, with experimental pop-rock, a blend of electronic and world music, remaining accessible.
You made a very entertaining video, and I like it, but I wished you would mention Genesis with one/two songs: "Firth of Fifth" has one of the best guitar solos ever, Steve Hackett pioneered tapping in rock music (listen to "The Musical Box" and "The Return of the Giant Hogweed" from their "Nursery Cryme" album), Peter Gabriel was a creative prodigy, and he was not less important than David Bowie, as regards stage persona, make-up and costumes.
Peter and David were pioneers in the same time (it was a question of months and it is very difficult to say who came first with the idea of wearing glam costumes). Anyway, I think Gabriel was less pop, and he created a sort of art which went beyond the limits of rock music.
I really like and respect David Bowie, but for me Peter Gabriel was (and is) way more brilliant.
PaulGenesis well I knew this was bound to come up. In cutting down the list, not including anything from LAMB LIES DOWN ON BROADWAY was a tough call, but one of the reasons was I couldn’t find any good footage of them performing from that tour. In fact, similarly, there’s no footage of Pink Floyd playing DARK SIDE at the time (but there was no way I could leave DARK SIDE out). I may make a second little video where we go through some extra stuff and Genesis will definitely be included.
Yeah I thought they would be considered during the Glam Rock segment. Especially Peter Gabriel. Like why Elton John?
Dude I love your videos and your editing is amazing
Ok. Hear me out on this. The absolute best song pairing is ... Layla ... fading in to Even In The Quietest Moments. Some nighttime DJ did this and I managed to capture it on a cassette tape. It became my "reset mix". Layla winds you up, and then EITQM relaxes the hell out of you. The crossfade this guy did between the two was brilliant. It wasn't just "this ends, this begins". But if that's all you can get, it still works. Not a pairing most people would think of, but a great stress reliever. Give it a try.
No Cary on way word son Kanas ,,Or more than a Feeling By Boston WOOOOOW
Superb work JTCurtis!!!!
You played Bad Company but the band before them with many hits and with a superior sound and more credibility was Free - both of those bands featured possibly the best vocalist in that style Paul Rogers.
he was among the best rock vocalists of all time. I also enjoyed the FIRM .'RADIOACTIVE' w/ Jimmy Page.
I really enjoyed your tongue in cheek way of paying your respects to the Disco era. Lol. For all its best or worst, it still existed.
Hey JT! Love your videos so much. Can we get an update on when in 2019 we should expect the 80s video?
If everything goes according to plan, we may just get a December release this year!
Thanks JT! Can’t wait!!
8:39 This was another riff I learned in rock school. It wasn't as challenging as Baba O'Riley, but it did give me some interesting handwork and coordination as well.
Oh...my...God! I am old enough to remember that sequence with Stevie Wonder doing that rendition of "Superstition" on Sesame Street when it happened! Ugh...I feel old! (IMHO, best live version of that I've ever heard by him...but there could be others of which I am not aware...)
I totally enjoyed your presentation. It was not only on target and captivating, but it was really funny and entertaining at the same time. I did notice even in the Extras segment that you forgot a couple of important groups: the band Chicago was a '70s staple and a phenomenal group, and their musical arrangements incorporating horns into a rock groove were practically unique (Blood Sweat and Tears were the original innovators of this style). Another overlooked popular prog group was Supertramp. By the time they released "Breakfast in America," the band, with their excellent hits, were a household name. Also, somehow you forgot to mention the Talking Heads. I wasn't personally a huge new wave fan, but I totally loved Talking Heads, especially their 70's albums like "More Songs about Buildings and Food"- they were so cool! While we're on "kitchy" and "wavy," the B-52's could have been mentioned, as they were a hoot and extremely popular. Also, a correction on Led Zeppelin- the opening clip of the live Zep footage had a caption that indicated it was from 1971, but it was in fact from the film, "The Song Remains the Same," which was shot during the 1973 tour. Again, a phenomenal job, and I look forward to checking out more of your videos!
I wasn't expecting the Goodfellas reference. Was not disappointed.
More videos...make more videos! This is great content. totally digging it man!
I grew up in the 70's. You look too young to remember it, but this was a very accurate summary. There were a few bands that got tons of airplay back then that you didn't include, but I mostly didn't like them because they were horribly overplayed (then, and now on classic rock stations), so I'm OK with that.
Best videos i could find on evolution on rock !!! Keep up the work man waiting for more.
I hope you will include the Ronnie James Dio-era Rainbow in the extras video.
Thanks🙏🙇 for the upload. Rock hard.....
I'm really enjoying the series so far. Awesome presentation on the 70s, although I was hoping for some ELO. Keep up the good work and I'm looking forward to the 80s presentation (maybe some Traveling Wilburys, Def Leppard and [I know it's not really rock and roll but] Whitney Houston would be great additions)
7:28 That's actually water. Photographer Ethan Russell, and the boys filled up a film canister, and poured it on the cement.
34:51 I HAVE NO F*****G TIME FOR THESE RANDOM ANIME REFERENCES. I'M TRYING TO DO A G**-***N VIDEO ON THE HISTORY OF ROCK & ROLL, AND YOU'RE RUNING IT FOR ME!!!
So, the 80s video needs to come out this weekend so I can use it as reference for my History of Rock class that I start teaching next week! These are great!!
I'm just at the Led Zeppelin part. The hardest part for JT must've been to keep a straight face. Yeah, the beginning is gloomy, the loss of Jimi, Janis and Jim and the Kent State shootings.
Update: I liked the Queen part. Your beautiful neighbor is good on the keyboards!
Update #2: The only thing missing was Chicago, the pioneers of "jazz rock."
Love these videos JT! In this video he kind of legit looks like Mick Jagger lol.
Hah! If only I could move like him.
70’s was THE BEST music decade !!!!
Brilliant video. Nice work. ELO and Toto were also children of the 70's that made a name for themselves. Strong ties between Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty in the 80's too. Keep up the great work.
Thank you. ELO is in our 70s Extras video and TOTO will be in the 80s video.

I know I'm late to the party here (like 4 years...) but I just recently watched this video, and liked it alot, but it would've been cool to talk about the jazz Fusion that peaked then (return to forever, Jeff becks forays into that genre, jean luc ponty, just to name afew), also Chicago's and santanas best years (in my opinion) I know there's a lot of ground to cover though. It was a great time for music. Except for disco....
A good point, I probably had it in my mind to mention Jeff Beck's BLOW BY BLOW, probably also Mahavishnu Orchestra, Weather Report, but it all just got lost in the shuffle.
2022 and you're whining about Disco?
Keep doing a good job man. You're awesome
