About Nostalgia & Eras
The 1970s were the decade rock spread its wings widest — stadium lights blazing, Marshall stacks shaking the floor, and album covers that became icons in their own right. From the swaggering blues of the Stones to the operatic grandeur of Queen, from Bowie's glam reinventions to the sun-baked highway rock of the Eagles, it was an era that rewarded the listener who sat with a record from first groove to last. A great riff could travel the world on a single AM radio signal, and it often did.
