Not a fan of the New York Dolls, Sparks, or Roxy Music?

Actually no. My roots are in blues and blues rock, but I did enjoy some of the 70’s glam musically, but not a lot.

Before he became a “star” Springsteen made some pretty good music. Born to Run was his last good LP as far as my taste goes. I saw the him and the E street band at the Jai Alai Fronton (Fern Park / Orlando) FL in 76 (or early 77). Powerhouse show. Nothing of his stuff after that appealed to me.

Early 70s we still had Humble Pie, Savoy Brown, Deep Purple. All great live bands. Surprisingly, Uriah Heep did a good live show. The Moody Blues were very impressive. Long John Baldry. Saw all of them. By the mid 70s pop music had evolved (devolved?) in a direction that was for the most part not very appealing to me.
