A Subjective Selection Of Great Music From The Seventies... - Part 6

Nils Lofgren – “No Mercy” And “Keith Don’t Go”

I don’t know a lot from Nils Lofgren, just two songs really, “No Mercy” and “Keith Don’t Go”. Nils Lofgren, who has had a long solo career, also worked with Neil Young in the Seventies, as well as playing in Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band for 25 years. But I didn’t know that until just […]

Hello Sailor – “Gutter Black” And “Blue Lady”

The 1977 album “Hello Sailor” by New Zealand band Hello Sailor from Auckland was the first record made in New Zealand to be certified gold, producing two top 20 and one top 30 singles in that country: “Gutter Black”, “Blue Lady” and “Lyin’ In The Sand”. To be honest, at the time I found Hello […]

Klaus Doldinger And Passport – “Uranus”, “Schirokko”, “Mandragora”, “Ataraxia” And The Theme From The Movie “Das Boot”

And now for something completely different – Klaus Doldinger and Passport, a German jazz formation that has been compared with the US band Weather Report. I won’t claim to know the individual tracks, I only heard Doldinger’s music for the first time in 1983, and liked it. Here are some tracks I have found from […]

Gary Numan – “Cars”

At the very end of the Seventies, late 1979, I remember Englishman Gary Numan singing “Cars”, from his album “The Pleasure Principle”. In fact, whenever I hear it or think of Gary Numan or “Cars”, it reminds me of being in not a car but a Transit van, at 4 o’clock in the morning. We […]
