70s: UK or US?

[Groovy Man]

I think it's 50/50....

but you forgot The Who for UK and The Grateful Dead for the USA...

which is unforgivable.



Just kidding...

Lots of great American classic rock bands, lots of great British bands, add them up and it's even for me...especially since my taste in rock music is wide and deep.

To be honest I don't know much of US bands, however I have some of the albums from there

WoW....really?....that's hard to believe.

You need to broaden your musical horizons.

You're missing out on A LOT of GREAT music...

Try the ''Allman Brothers Band Live At The Fillmore East''

and Hot Tuna ''Yellow Fever''

^^Nolo is still young Groovy, plenty of time for him to "Broaden" his horizons.

Not easy great bands from both sides of the Atlantic. Mmmm UK just nicks it for me.

I am going to put myself in the 70's for this vote.....I listened to almost exclusive USA bands during that time. So the USA it is!!! Aerosmith being my #1 Band


But if I vote on my tastes of today, the vote would go to the UK.

Oh, ok...I didn't realize that...I didn't mean no harm...

He's not even old enough for me to buy him a cold brew here in the States...

So...root beer toast!

No harm your post was in good fun Groovy...if nothing else maybe you'll inspire him to collect some classic American bands now.

Yeah, wait till he hears ZZ Top!



and Frank Zappa!

Of course, UK. For me, the listed British groups - it's a real geniuses, many of whose became the first (and the best) in their genres. And all Americans are on the list (besides the Great and Terrible Alice) - just very, very good rock bands...and that's all. By the way, Nololob, why in the English list is no place for "Queen"?

75% of my library are bands from UK, most of them are in my top 50, so I picked what I had on top 50. Queen unfortunately for them are not even in Top 700.

I think it's 50/50....

I completely forgot about existence of Grateful Dead, even that you have them on your avatar. Please, forgive me.
American music is still a bit strange for me, doesn't have that... something... what British bands have. I'm more keen about European music right now. But still some greats from US I like: Captain Beyond, Slayer, Pentagram, Steppenwolf, Elf/Dio and some many more.

Oh, Frank Zappa?
MUFFIN MAN!

I'd say US. For me, the best bands from either country are Sabbath and Purple, but then again there are a lot of the UK bands from that time period that I've just never had much interest in (like Floyd and Zeppelin).

The US has a handful of really great bands from the 70's but my vote goes to the UK and it isn't even close.
