MONTROSE " Bad Motor Scooter " http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNfgBeevrVY and UFO " Darker Days " http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KtadOA0E_I&feature=related , plus " A Self Made Man " http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXrZ0YWm0aU&feature=related and " Knock , Knock " , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12lyf6Hxjgo&feature=related . One of the best underrated bands ever . PHIL MOGG a lead vocalist that never gets the credit that's due . Right up there with Paul Rodgers of BAD COMPANY .
I could post 50 songs from the 70's that are worthy of favorite status. For now I'll keep it to just a few of my favorite "heavy" songs:
Sabbath!
Early Zep
Highway Star
Let's get some punk in there
Heart - Crazy On You
1981...does this count? Probably written in the 70's Rush - Limelight
1970
Doors: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81u6fMRM1IE
1979

I agree. As much as people make fun of 70's rock, I think it has great range and some of the best rock EVER. Already look at this thread!

Anything (everything) by Deep Purple, Allman Brothers, Janis Joplin, Grand Funk.
That is my favorite era too.
There were lots of very good one hit wonders, too - Blackfoot, Bloodrock, MC5 - more than I can remember. Like someone else said, the list is almost endless. It was a high energy time.
Van Halen - 'You're No Good' from 1979:

Actually, ANY VH is great to watch!
THE ROCKETS : " Oh Well " ( originally early FLEETWOOD MAC ) , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCJ4gHOdixU . Kick butt ! A must watch and listen .
STILLWATER " Mindbender " , story of a talking electric guitar . Great tune with voice box , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bt1io_Z2WOQ .

Not a fav, but a quirky song from the 70's.

Great L.P. as well . Other album covers that swayed me to purchase as a teen were RUSH " 2112 " , THIN LIZZY " Jailbreak " , HEAD " Get Yourself Up " , DOOBIE BROTHERS " What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits " and many others .
