We have musically explored the 1970s in the past covering Radio Hits, Disco, Funk, Soul & Hawaiian from that decade. However we have yet to venture into the area of Album Rock, the songs most commonly heard on the era’s new stereo FM radio. These stations were the Spotify of that time exposing listeners to longer album versions of hits and an album’s non-singe tracks. Neither of these made their way onto conventional AM radio due to the time and hit restrictions of these stations. FM radio also helped significantly boost the sales of albums to consumers who may have previously only purchased a 45 single. This increase in revenue also assisted in artist expression because record companies started to open up budgets for concept albums, elaborate artwork and more extensive studio sessions.
Included in this first episode are many standards of FM radio that are now heard on Classic Rock radio and streaming channels. We have included a couple of the more obscure tracks and will increase the occurrence of these as this series progresses.
Mahalo for watching and experiencing the music with us!
