SF0162 50 Years On: 1974 Revisited

1 August 2024
Ian Forth

A reassessment of 1974, 50 years on. An almost themeless era as music wondered where to go next after the 60s, psychedelia, heavy metal, glam rock and the golden age of reggae. (And before punk came thundering in.) A fascinating tracklist.

Discussing music by:: Kraftwerk; David Essex; Keith Hudson; Sparks; Brian Eno; Roxy Music; John Cale; Neil Young; Bridget St John; Nick Drake; Can; Augustus Pablo meets the Upsetter; Richard and Linda Thompson; 10cc; David Bowie
