"The 1970s was undoubtedly the golden age of popular music. Whether taking established genres to new and incredible places, or creating entirely new genres, the ingenuity and inspiration around music in that decade was supreme. What's more, the bands and artists who encapsulated the spirit of the age so successfully are still as revered today as they were then - Queen, The Rolling Stones, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, The Eagles etc. still appear at the top of lists of the greatest bands of all time, and if they ever play live then fans old and new scramble to pay extortionate prices to see their heroes in action. Featuring interviews with and articles on each of the biggest artists of the decade, the Uncut History of Rock: The 70s takes the reader on a journey through the 1970s, not only covering the music and how it was made, but the people behind it - and what made them. With hundreds of incredible photographs as well as iconic album covers and posters, this book allows you to re-live the greatest decade of music the world has ever seen in all its glory."--
