Electric Light Orchestra Playlist
The big orchestral-rock fusion band, Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) is one of the biggest selling groups of the 70s and 80s. They were formed in 1970 by Roy Wood, Bev Bevan and Jeff Lynne. The three were already members of The Move and it was Wood and Lynne's intention that they would start a new band in the fullness of time. The three members stayed with The Move for two more albums, preparing the groundwork for what would become the first ELO album.![]()

Crosby Stills and Nash Playlist
Crosby, Stills & Nash have remained America’s longest-running experiment in vocal harmony and social relevance. The trio brought harmony to the forefront of popular music with their unique three-part vocal blend. A low-key supergroup, they emphasized singing and songwriting above all, and their example contributed to the evolution of the singer/songwriter movement in the Seventies.![]()

Jethro Tull Playlist
Ian Anderson's flute may be the defining factor in Jethro Tull’s music, but it’s only one element in a band that’s been around since the late 60s.
Originally a blues-based rock band with a few dollops of British folk in their sound, they evolved into one of the most popular progressive rock bands of the 70s.![]()
