Through The Decades: The Seventies

XPN | By Bruce Warren

The O'Jays

Here at the World Cafe, we love the music from the '70s. It was an amazing, eclectic decade. From classic rock to classic soul and R&B, the mid-70s brought us punk, disco, New Wave, hip-hop and jazz fusion. We've taken some time to pull together some of our favorite songs and artists from the '70s. Enjoy our "Through The Decades: The Seventies" playlist below:
