The 1960s began with crooners like Paul Anka, Connie Francis and Frankie Avalon populating the top 10 of the Billboard singles chart, and ended with the Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Creedence Clearwater Revival. Never before had popular music undergone such a complete transformation over a 10-year stretch.

As 1970 was ushered in, few could have imagined where we were headed next. There weren’t many signs at the start of the decade. The Beatles would break up that year, as would Simon and Garfunkel and the Supremes. But many of the artists that dominated rock music in 1970—and would continue to for some time—were the same ones we’d been listening to as the ’60s closed out. If a major shift was on the way, it would’ve been difficult to imagine, at the time, just what form it would take.

Now, of course, we know. Names that were still new relatively to us—Elton John, David Bowie, the Jackson Five, Black Sabbath, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor—were offering suggested paths, but only a soothsayer could have guessed just how substantial their impact would eventually be. The singer-songwriter movement, heavy metal, funk and other new genres would quickly gain adherents, but in 1970 they were still largely outliers.

Music never stays still—whether we like where it goes or not, it doesn’t wait for us. That was true in 1970, and by the end of that decade, the landscape would, once again, look completely different (hello disco, punk and hip-hop). In any case, it’s always fun to look back with the benefit of hindsight and remember what our ears were taking in.

That’s exactly what we’ve done here: We’ve turned back the clock 50 years and compiled a timeline of the year’s top events (including album releases) in rock music. Then we’ve listed the bands that formed during that year, and those that called it quits.

Finally, we’ve compiled a list of the year’s top singles. Looking at it all now, we have to admit that we were all very lucky to have this music in our lives—and we still are!
