retro 70's (part 2)

Ang dekada 70 ang pinakamakulay na dekada hindi lamang sa buong mundo kundi maging dito sa Pilipinas. Ang sampung taon (katumbas ng isang dekada) naging saksi ako sa mga pagbabago na tinangkilik ng mga Pinoy. Hindi lamang sa moda, pananalita, pananaw sa buhay at higit sa lahat sa impluwensiya ng musika na dala ng mga musikerong banyaga. Kasama ako sa mga angaw-angaw na naa-aliw ng mga usong ito. Sa kategorya ng musika buong kasabikan namin inaabangan ang parangal sa musika. (isa na rito ang The Grammys) Narito ang ilan sa mga talaan ng mga nagwagi...

The 70s was truly a great decade musically. I loved the songs of Carole King, Bill Withers, Billy Paul, EWF, the Bee Gees, and Stevie Wonder to name a few. The sounds were original. :)

Even OPM during the 70s was great too. Freddie Aguilar, Mike Hanopol, VST & Co., Florante, Rico Puno, and Rey Valera all made their mark during that decade. Galing!

Bridge Over Troubled Waters is one of my faves. It's poetic and singable. I remember we interpreted it in our Lit class in college. It's a masterpiece!

those were my teenage years, and i remember most of them. music then was pure music, there was not need for high tech gadgetry to enhance the music, and most of the songs then made a lot of sense. thanks for putting them together.
