all in the thread title.

Have a real soft spot for the 70s. whether it's rock and all the strands that go with that. Folk, electronic, funk/soul etc. For my ears the 70s were the most fruitful. Here's a thread to maybe highlight some gems that might not be that well known from that era.

Mentioned this album in another thread recently, Ame Debout by Catherine Ribeiro + Alpes. Listened again this morning, so bloody good. her voice is absolutely amazing. French album from 71. ticks the folk/prog boxes.

LOVE Catherine Ribeiro + Alpes - also check out Paix from 1972 (Julian Cope does has a great article on it here: The Book of Seth: Catherine Ribeiro+Alpes — Paix)

Got complemented on my Anne Briggs t-shirt out in town the other night so probably she's better known than I realise but this is easily one of my favourite albums from the 70s

Great thread idea!
This is an album that I love, not that rare or hard to find but bloody good.
If you like a Richard/Linda Thompson vibe, this ticks those boxes.

Some great additions to the thread there folks. Have lined them up on a spotify list. Have the finders keepers emerald web comp, really great stuff.
 
Speaking of Sparks, in 1979 they did release a tremendously strange disco album with someone called Noël

This Supernaut is pretty super too. Although I don't believe it was released at the time.

the 4th Chairmen of the Board album, which really bears no relation to any of their hits
