Hi, I agree with the two. Yes, recently I've heard selection of songs
from the 1990s and told myself: "yeah I remember!!! well, there was some
good songs in this time after all!"

But I still maintain that 1970s are special. I'm not the best person to
explain why, and it's not the place. That's why I gave links. But just
count the number of artists I listed: I'm not saying that everybody
should like all of them(it's not the case for myself). But they are all
recognized to have put a brick in music history. And so I can't let
Steve say something a little like "there was mainly Disco in the 70s".

And I forgot three main other bands of the decade(shame on me): Doobie
Brothers, Chicago, Supertramp
