The year we are traveling back to today was a year of seismic pop culture shifts—Jimmy Carter was in the Oval Office, Star Wars took over theaters, and Saturday Night Fever lit up the dance floor. New York City went dark in a massive blackout, but the music scene was burning bright. One of the biggest rock songs of the year by Ram Jam came from the 1800s. Another by Heart came when a sleazy radio promoter’s dirty innuendo pissed off Ann Wilson, causing her to write one of the greatest rock songs in mere minutes… another song by Paul McCartney was released on an album 7 years earlier but a live version of the song hit the top of the charts and another one by Fleetwood Mac came from one of the greatest soap opera’s in music history. It made today’s year a revelation… see if you can guess the year in today’s top 10 countdown coming up next!
