Title Note

VH1's collection of killer chart hits from the 1970s contains cuts that will likely be immediately familiar to almost anyone alive during that era. Sequenced chronologically, the set opens at the dawn of the decade with the Guess Who's "American Woman" (long before Lenny Kravitz got his hands on it), and grooves straight through to '79's "Rapper's Delight" by the Sugarhill Gang--the single that, appropriately, ushered in the '80s and the age of rap.

The tunes in between are not only good, but are emblematic of the trends and cultural currents of the time. Helen Reddy's "I Am Woman" recalls the burgeoning feminist movement, while Curtis Mayfield's "Superfly" and Issac Hayes's "Theme from Shaft" are from the soundtracks to popular Blaxploitation films. Ray Stevens's "The Streak" reminds listeners of the streaking fad; while John Sebastian's "Welcome Back" conjures visions of WELCOME BACK, KOTTER's Vinnie Barbarino and Horshack. There's also FM rock (Lynyrd Skynyrd), disco (KC & the Sunshine Band, Chic, and Sister Sledge), soft-rock balladry (Bread), and, of course, Don McLean's epic "American Pie -- Parts I & II." Weren't the '70s great?
