1970's

__** MUSIC : **__

The Seventies saw the deaths of many influential musicians such as Elvis Presley, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Jim Morrison. It also was the time of the break up of one of the most successful bands in music history, The Beatles. Disco dancing was becoming popular. Top names in the industry were Aerosmith, the Bee Gees, Elton John, Bruce Springstein. Bob Marley made reggae music popular.

**__Rock and Roll:__** In the early 1970's, the popular mainstream was dominated by the Rolling Stones, the Eagles, and Chicago. Each group made lots of albums and sold millions of copies. The heavy-metal style was pioneered by Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Deep Purple which all featured aggressive guitar-latent songs. Some heavy-metal groups wear heavy makeup and costumes. For example, the group Kiss wears lots of makeup and weird costumes. The most popular dance music in the 1970's was disco. In New York, it drew up black popular music and easier rhythms by adding steady bass-drum beats. Disco had a huge impact on rock music. About 1976, punk rock originated in New York City and London. Punk-rock music was raw, abrasive, and fast. London punk groups included the Clash and the Police while New York punk and new wave music included the Blonde, Talking heads, and Parti Smith. The music business, in the United States, had become more centralized in the 1970's. Music artists sold millions of albums in those 10 years. Rock and roll developed a lot over that period of time.

During the 70's rock continued to do well. Rock started to run into other music and was a big influence to teens all over the world. Blues were still the main foundation of most rock and roll but disco ruled the 70's. Disco was rarely preformed live and most rock stars used tapes and records. In the 70's people thought that rock had lost it's originality. Some young rock artists had a hard time to make much money. Punk rock made people want to make music videos. Some star Puck rocker were Led Zeppelin and The Who. Michael Jackson made a couple music videos. Michael Jackson's music video the " Thriller" became one of the best selling record album of all time.





**__Led Zepplin__** combined the power and intensity of hard rock with the elegancy of brittish folk music. By combining these the band brought more fans to rock in the 70's. Unfortunately the group broke up in 1980. Led Zepplin was formed in 1968. The group included Jimmy Page on guitar, John Paul Jones as bassist, Robert Plant as vocals, and the drummer was John Bonham. The group name, Led Zepplin, was sugested by Who drummer, Kieth Moon. Keith Moon said it as a joke, he thought they would go down like a zepplin full of lead. Led Zepplin was considered heavy metal for their time. When the drummer died on September 1980 the group decided to do solo stuff. Jimmy Page made it big with other groups and solo albums and now with Puff Daddy, "Come With Me". Puff Daddy redid a Led Zeppelin song called "Kashmir" this song is on the Godzilla song track.

Reggae **__ The 1972 film The Harder They Come, starring Jimmy Cliff, generated considerable interest and popularity for reggae music in the United States, and Eric Clapton's 1974 cover of the Bob Marley song " I Shot the Sheriff " is thought to signify reggae's acceptance as a global phenomenon by the "white rock world"[ By the mid 1970s, reggae was getting radio play in the UK on John Peel's radio show, and Peel continued to play much reggae during his career. What is called the first "Golden Age of Reggae" corresponds roughly to the heyday of roots reggae.

 * __MOVIES:__** The Seventies was the decade of the big comeback for the movies. After years of box office erosion caused by the popularity of television, a combination of blockbuster movies and new technologies such as Panavision and Dolby sound brought the masses back to the movies. The sci-fi adventure and spectacular special effects of George Lucas's Star Wars made it one of the highest grossing films ever. Other memorable movies were the disaster movies, Towering Inferno, Earthquake, Poseidon Adventure, and Airport. Sylvester Stallone's Rocky reaffirmed the American dream and gave people a hero with a "little guy comes out on top" plot. The Godfather spawned multiple sequels. There also was the terror of Steven Spielberg's Jaws, the chilling Exorcist, and the moving Kramer vs. Kramer. There was a definite public yearning for simpler, more innocent times as evidenced by the popularity of the movies, American Graffiti and Grease and which both presented a romanticized view of the Fifties. Saturday Night Fever with John Travolta fueled the "disco fever" already sweeping the music and dance club scenes; and the nation's experience in the Vietnam War and its aftermath influenced the themes of several movies, including Coming Home, The Deer Hunter and Apocalypse Now.

**__FASHION:__** The decade began with a continuation of the hippie look from the 1960's. Jeans remained frayed and the tie dye was still popular. The space age look was on the wane, though tunics and Indian fabrics continued to be popular. Jeans rises shrunk to 4 inches or even less as "hip huggers" with "bell-bottoms" became the height of denim fashion. Altering the appearance of jeans with bleach and tie-dye techniques, embroidery, and metal studs were popular as well. Polyester "doubleknit" fabric was coming into its own, with many clothing items for men and women being produced in this modern easy-care fabric. mini dress, hot pants and also maxi and platform soled shoes.

D uring the 1970's the United States underwent some profound changes. First a Vice President and then a President resigned under threat of impeachment. The Vietnam War continued to divide the country even after the Paris Peace Accords in January 1973 put an end to U.S. military participation in the war. Roe v. Wade legalized abortion. Crime increased despite Nixon's pledge to make law and order a top priority of his presidency. Increased immigration followed passage of the Immigration Act of 1965, which reformed an earlier policy that favored western Europeans. During 1974 the Watergate scandal erupted into the world as the media took over. Nixon was so paranoid because he wanted to win a second term as president. He had a for sure win for his second term but he was so paranoid that he sent men called "creepers" to find out information. The creepers broke into Watergate the first time undetected to gather information on which the democrats are going to run for their ticket. The second time the creepers broke in. the security guard caught them and called the police. The creepers had turned their walkie-talkies off so they had no chance of knowing the police were coming once the stakeout guy tried to alert them. The creepers were caught and arrested while wearing three-piece suits. Nixon would lead to his own downfall because he recorded everything he did. He kept a file of tapes so he can write an autobiography about his life. Ironically the tapes would be used against him and he would be charged with many crimes and felonies. Somehow on some of the tapes areas of importance would be erased by "accident" Nixon would hurt himself by always lying to the public and speaking half-truths. Through this time Bob Woodward would keep track of the case. He had a "deep throat" to give him inside information, which would lead to Nixon resigning. Once Nixon resigned, Gerald ford would be appointed the president. He would pardon Nixon from all of his crimes and this would lead to Ford'ss downfall at the end of his term because he pardoned Nixon of all crimes.
 * __POLICAL EVENTS:__**

In the end of the sixties and in the early seventies, Richard Nixon was the president of America. During his presidency, many economical changes would erupt questioning his leadership ability. In the early seventies, there would be a nation wide rail road strike and a postal strike. This was all because of the money paid to them wasn't enough to suffice for the high rates of inflation. This became a political affair on who would regulate the economy. At this time another huge embargo placed on the U.S. and the rest of the western hemisphere was the OPEC embargo. (Also known as the Arab Oil Embargo). This hurt the United States politically because of their relations with the Arab nations and the economy of the U.S. The main incident that hurt Nixon was the Watergate scandal. He was so "hungry" to win that he went off to cheat so he can win. He wanted to know who he was going to run against, but this would hurt him eventually leading to his resignation. On the positive side, Nixon had the United States at an all time low for unemployment to 3.3%. He also improved relations with china and the U.S.S.R. or now Russia. A major help was when he pulled out America of the Vietnam War saving thousands of American lives from injury and harm. After this in 1974 he would be relieved by Gerald Ford who would later pardon him of all his crimes.
