poll Most iconic 70’s rock band?

[Bears01]

The 70’s was a great era for rock n roll. Many iconic bands debuted/broke out during this decade. 
 

Which of these bands has the most iconic legacy? 

[Devin]

Led Zeppelin > Pink Floyd > Black Sabbath > the rest

[makeme]

Zeppelin and Floyd 

[Bears01]

I voted for Queen, but I can certainly see an argument for Zeppelin especially and “the Dark Side of the Moon” is probably the most significant album of any of these acts 

[Holiest Dreams]

In terms of name recognition/legacy, it feels like a tie between Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, and Queen imo. I can’t really decide between those. Honorable mention to AC/DC.

Pink Floyd. Their 70s run is just flawless.

 

DSoTM -> WYWH -> Animals -> The Wall

 

[Alldeezy]

Led Zeppelin & Black Sabbath

[JoeAg]

out of these, Fleetwood Mac for sure

 

love Pink Floyd and The Eagles! and Queen is certainly a band that existed

but Fleetwood Mac felt unstoppable and really had such a wonderful sound, which gave them 2 masterpieces and then 3 more excellent albums with its most famous line up

 

gotta say though... Big Star deserved to have been the most iconic 70s band  especially for this song in particular...

 

[rmmas]

Eagles

[brooklyndaddy]

How are you gonna make this list and not include a single punk band 

[LikeaRebel]

Probably Queen. I voted for KISS though.

Ugh they are so great. This song is possibly the saddest of all time but so beautifully haunting 

 

 

[Katamari]

obviously black sabbath like hello!!

[KatyPrismSpirit]

i love pink floyd and led zeppelin the most. heard almost all of their 70s output. 

[Virgos Groove]

Led Zeppelin at the time. Queen or Pink Floyd now.

[GlamSlam]

This is really hard. I'd say Queen followed by Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac.

[DamianSolo]

I voted for AC/DC, just for the amount of iconic classics they do have.

[Chaos Angel]

Pink Floyd is by far the best

 

& Queen is the most iconic (along with Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd & Led Zeppelin)

[Soobin]

Pink Floyd

[Soda Pop Queen]

For my money, Queen.

the fact that you know them omg  made my night tbh! (the other night* whoops I meant to answer u earlier)

I looove this song!^ another fav of mine is Try Again

[Mystic Boy]

Pink Floyd are by far the most innovative musically, listening to their music is near a mystic experience. 

 

You can still see on the daily people with their album covers on their shirts. Their vinyls are always among the best sold yearly.

 

They're the most iconic without biopics and streaming playlisting to help their legacy.
