Martin and Venetia will take you to the decade of denim flares, burnt orange kitchen bench tops and the birth of disco and glam rock! Each week we’ll have a 70’s theme that we’ll explore, such as songs from disaster movies, movement anthems, one hit wonders, daggy duets, funky numbers, and disco tracks that steamed up the dance floor in many an LGBTI venue, to name just a few. The 70s produced some amazing music and we’re here to make sure that music is shared and never lost. NOTE: Due to music licencing requirements this podcast is unavailable outside of Australia.

Yes, we’ve been hard at work, mining the Seventies for musical gems for a whole three fantastic years. And we’re not done yet: there’s still plenty of glittering 70s tracks to rediscover. What a blast it’s been. We’ve weathered pandemics, relocations, health challenges and technical glitches, and we’ve loved every minute of it. Along the way we’ve found friendship, a fantastic community of listeners and, of course, a rich and lustrous vein of music, music, music. Thank you so much for your company along the way, and here’s to many, many more!

For most of us, the only monarch we have known. Whether you are a fan of the monarchy or not, you cant deny that her long stewardship has shaped our history and indelibly stamped our culture and collective consciousness. This includes the annual Royal Variety shows, the Galas and Jubilee concerts, which have showcased the evolution of musical forms and tastes over nearly three quarters of a century. In this week’s show we pay tribute, by sharing songs from the 1970s by artists who have been called to perform for the Queen at some point during her reign.

Songs would be written and then sent around to various producers to see if they might fit an act they were working with. Likewise, producers and artists were always on the look out for songs that may not have been a big hit when they were originally released but might be if they put their particular spin on it.  This meant that several versions of the same song might be released by different artists – not only in the same decade but sometimes in the same year, month or week. Who did the better version? You be the judge

If a movie was a big hit in the Seventies, chances are the theme song or major musical number would become a hit too. Several big music stars of the time helped craft movie sound tracks and theme songs with fantastic results. Whether it was Blaxploitation flicks, disaster movies or Bond films, the perfect track could help propel the film to hit status. It would also become indelibly linked to the movie in the collective consciousness. People may not know the title of the song, but no one can hear the opening horns on Gonna Fly Now without seeing Rocky Balboa shadow boxing up those steps. Even now, 25 years after its release. A good sound track makes for movie magic.
