THE 70'S AGE IN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA



The music's world has had great decades in which artists have made history and pass it opened the way to new ones over time have been also in the memory of all, and certainly one of the most prolific decades and special for music was the 70.

Broadly speaking, rock music in the 70's as miserable began with the death of Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin, both symbols of the '60s generation who die from overdose. Musically, the hippie and psychedelic experimentation of the 60s gave way to a genre with songs much more strong and convoluted: symphonic rock.
Some Exponents of the 70's music are:
Yes
Genesis
Pink Floyd, who got tired of selling millions of records and fill stadiums.
The Rolling Stones are still playing and in fact have already served 50 years.
The Who, these and previous were favored by the separation of the Beatles.
Led Zeppelin
Queen
Black Sabbath
Deep Purple




In the first 70 Additional glam rock and androgynous attitude talents as David Bowie and T-Rex would do delight of thousands of fans.
And this started a whole lot more theatrical setting, showing that the addition of chord rock was a comprehensive show: well, Alice Cooper and Kiss took possession of the best shows of the time, and then would influence many bands, and even today it remain.
From the second half of the decade, a genre of suburban New Yorkers from breaks to restore the quota of rebellion and rock music of the 70 had lost: it's punk, minimalist music and much faster than the practiced so far: its main exponents were Ramonesen United States and in England the Sex Pistols Clash ythe.
