Qobuz playlist (July 2022)
Since the classic rock radio format first established itself in the early ’80s, the definition of “rock music of the 1970s” has gotten reduced further and further down to a very specific handful of songs by an even more specific handful of artists. And while “Stairway to Heaven,” “More Than A Feeling,” and “Hotel California” are popular for a reason, there’s far more to the kaleidoscopic sounds of ’70s rock than what one may hear on the airwaves these days. This collection is a good way to start scratching the surface, with everything from forgotten singles by hazily-remembered acts to deep album cuts by icons of the era. With Nazareth, Lindisfarne, Aerosmith, Cowboy, Grand Funk Railroad, Captain Beyond, and more.
