The 1970 era was a big part of my life. Those were my high school and college years. It was the time of my first full time employment and the music scene was no less than awesome.

Songs from bands like The Rolling Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Rolling Stones, Bob Seger, Pink Floyd, The Eagles, Journey, Foreigner and so much more, defined the decade. Yes, later on the Disco fad came along , but let's try to ignore that ever happened.

We compiled some of the best of the best songs from 1970 to 1979, and are neatly packaging them in hourly double-shots throughout the weekend for your musical entertainment. It's just what we do.

Have a great weekend, and remember to take 99.1 The Whale wherever you go, so you won’t miss all that great Classic Rock. You can hear us three ways -  on your radio at 99.1 FM, online at 991thewhale.com and on your mobile phone with radioPup!
