Heavy 70's Bands & Albums Ya Gotta check out!

[@stevesekora]

Great video George. I love 70's rock. Some of my favorites.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Thanks Steve! I'm glad you liked the video! I always had a fondness for hard 70's rock!!

[@drpaulmasonphd]

That's a great video. The 1970s is very much my wheelhouse, so I'm always looking for new bands to come on my radar. Starz, Moxy, The Dictators, and Leaf Hound will do nicely. Cheers

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Awesome I hope you like those bands!! Cheers!

[@AttackFromDownunda]

Some really good top tier 70's bands. Glad to see the aussie band " Buffalo " , I do like " Budgie " and " Riot ". All well worth anybodys time to check out!.🤘

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Definitely thanks for watching!🤘👍

[@RobDawg881]

Great topic! I appreciate that you had 2 Canadian bands during this segment. Here's one you can add....Max Webster. Great Canadian band that was overshadowed by more popular bands at the time. Kim Mitchell, their lead vocalist, went on to have a successful solo career.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Yes I've heard alot about Kim Mitchell but haven't checked them out yet! Thanks!👍

[@hansriemens3125]

Max Webster yes!!! Talking about cool heavy canadian 80’s: The Imps; with Frank Soda!

[@craigsandry6737]

Hey George ; Great you gave a heads up to Buffalo , a great Aussie Band . Check out ‘Only want you for your body’ their 3rd album . Also Rose Tattoo self titled album from 1978 is absolutely awesome 😎🇦🇺🎸👌

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Thanks! Yes I've checked out Rose Tattoo but haven't picked up anything by them yet!

[@aquatarkus2022]

May Blitz. Extremely heavy British band, made 2 studio albums and a live in Germany that is incredible.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Yes I have a burned copy of their first album!

[@cristianosorio2517]

Hi George!! well done and cool ide a for a video.... you have showed some great and in cases underrated bands like LeafHound, Atomic Rooster, Dust and even Budgie. I would like to suggest Bang (US answer to Sabbath) and Lucifer's Friend, their s/t album is awesome and the artwork too!!! Hope many "young" metalheads watch and learn about heavy music in the 70's and realize how things evolve and not believe it all started with the bands they listen now. cheers and be well

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

You are not the only one to mention Lucifers Friend which I only have a burned copy of one of their albums! Good stuff though, thanks as always Cristian!

[@walterverbitski7124]

Excellent choices. I'm old enough to have had at least one album by all of those bands. For me, best years for hard rock were 65 through 75! Have to mention my favorite band , Blue Oyster Cult. First three albums are classics!

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Yes they are a great band too! I wanted to show some more unknown bands in this video! Thanks for watching!

[@russdavies9686]

Excellent post George, I'm always looking for more obscure music.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Great! Hope you find something you like!👍

[@Mike-aka747]

Stray s/t 1970 Stray Suicide 1971 Stray Saturday Morning Pictures 1972 They did 5 more albums varying in quality. Mostly good in my opinion. But they were growing as musicians. The last 2 albums i feel they became victim of the “we need some hits” from the record company. Those albums are half/half affairs.

[@metalmartymac]

Great video George , always nice to see older stuff like this..few bands I haven’t heard …nice to see Budgie , cool band and it’s always great when someone shows Riot 🤘 Great stuff

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Thanks Marty! People forget these old rockers and what they brought to the table back then!

[@jeffreycharest9093]

I got heat exhaustion today unfortunately. My fault. Was 92 here and didn't eat or drink much. Definitely helped relaxing to this great video. A good amount of the bands mentioned I haven't heard anything from. Definitely want to get more 70s stuff soon. This will help me a lot making buying decisions. Thanks George.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Cool! Make sure you remember to drink more next time that's most important! Hope you like some of these bands too!👍

[@Mike-aka747]

Any man into Budgie is definitely a friend of mine 😊 Love all their albums. Power Supply is a dark horse almost NWOBHM ish offering. My favorite album by them is surprise time……If I were Britannia I’d waive the rules. Love the kicked back nature of this. Just really loose playing. Black Velvet Stallion is the highlight. Of course first 5 albums are very classic. No debate there. 🤘

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Thanks! Yeah I need a real copy of those Budgie albums I only have a burned copy of each! Thanks for watching!

[@Mike-aka747]

⁠You’re welcome. Just subscribed, looks like you’ve got lots of good videos up w music right up my alley way.

[@This-Is-Music]

Good video. Very informative, and I hope some of our younger fellow rock and metal fans watch it; I'm sure they'll find it very educational.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Thanks Kim I hope someone will check out some of the old dinosaurs!

[@tainted_lord87]

Solid 70's bands you showed off, George. Nice to see Helix, Nazareth, & a few others I've not heard about.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Cool hope you check out some new old bands! 😁

[@andjusticeforearl4742]

Great video George, I have really gotten into 70s Rock over the past year and a half. Mostly thanks to you! There a quite a few of these that I haven’t heard yet. I still haven’t heard any of the Budgie albums 🤷‍♂️

[@bjornandersson3837]

Budgie is one of the best band from the 70s.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Thanks Earl! Budgie is a unique but really great band!

[@artfuldp1669]

Loved Starz back in the day. They should have been HUGE!

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Absolutely they had the makings of superstars! No pun intended!😁

[@briankessler3501]

Savoy Brown-Hellbound Train Hot Tuna-Yellow Fever Two to ✔ out. Great post, George

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Hot Tuna great pick man!👍

[@pieface8032]

I've never delved into the 70s although I do have odds and ends. I have heard of the majority of these but never checked them out as if I don't own it I probably have never heard it. Always good to get new recommendations as you never know when you might come across them. Leaf Hound sounds and looks interesting. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Thanks yes they are all quite unique in their own way. Alot of experimentation in this period of music. Cheers!

[@juicetoe61]

Dust. Early 70’s highly recommended. 2 more I’d like to mention “check um out”, Captain Beyond and Colosseum II w/ Gary Moore.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Caption Beyond that first album is a great one! Coliseum I've never heard of but if it's got Gary Moore then I'll definitely look into it! Thanks!

[@guto5986]

Nice video, check out The Groundhogs, May Blitz and swiss band Toad!!!

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Toad I've heard good things about, need to check them out! Thanks!

[@seanbelcher4486]

Great video. I own about half of what you showed. I know of the dust albums but never really listened to them. I'm going to listen today tho

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Cool Sean! Let me know what you think of them!🤘

[@mikebogush6803]

I have a collection of heavy 70s! Japanese bands Blues Creation , Flower Traveling Band of Course all the UK Bands Some German Bands Lucifers Friend S/T kicks Ass too many more to name! 🤘🤘🤘

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Cool gotta check them out! Lucifers Friend I have a burned copy of really good stuff!! Thanks for watching!

[@christophermerlot3366]

Seeing as you mentioned the cover of Atomic Rooster's 'Death Walks Behind You', any English major can tell it's by seminal poet and painter William Blake. Specifically it's his image of Nebuchadnezzar. You might also like to know that the cover of Dust's 'Hard Attack' is Frank Frazetta's 'Snow Giants.' (Molly Hatchet used his work on a number of covers BTW.) Always nice to see Nazareth get a shout out. Great 70s band.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Thanks and thank you for the info on the cover art! I have the early Molly Hatchet albums they are spectacular art by Frank Frazzeta

@@georgegsroomofrock9868 I remember hurrying home from highschool, to listen to my sister's copy before she got home from work " shoo" on a little highfedilyty mono record player, but even though the very poor quality, I could hear him oh yes , the legendary Glen Buxton on his Gibson SG, that's when i fel in love with all things guitar, so thanks for the memories brother 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 happy healthy peace ✌️

Yes Midnight Moses by Alex Harvey rocks. Amazing riff

[@eldiablo9841]

Sir lord baltimore, poobah , atomic rooster.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Aww damn I forgot about Sir Lord Baltimore! Awesome band! Cheers!

[@Sneakycat1971]

Could you do the best of 70s guitar riffs from unknown bands?

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Hmm I could do that, ill have to think about it. But I'll see what I can come up with

[@user-km4rk5sg5c]

Most of those groups, I did not like in the 70s, when I was young and open to all types of music. The rest I never heard of, so if they are like the others, I am glad I didn't hear of them. The 70s had some really great music, too bad they are not represented here.

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

You can't like everything. Thanks for watching though!

[@mikebarker7626]

Also check out icecross, bloodrock, Bang,

[@georgegsroomofrock9868]

Cool I definitely will! Thanks!
