No words needed rock #instrumentals from the 70s #RMF

This is the second annual Roctober Mewsic Festival hosted by Mary from Jingle Jangle Jungle and I’m happy to join along with her in the fun. 

I always considered myself a soft rock to middle of the road rock gal but in the last 10 years, I realized that my rock n’ roll roots lean a little heavier and harder than I first thought.  This month, I’m revisiting some of the classic 70s bands that I loved as a preteen/teenager and you’re welcome to come along for the ride.

The decade before, during, and after the 70s it wasn’t uncommon to turn on the radio to hear some groovy horns or guitars or full orchestra backed songs. No words needed.  The inventiveness of past mewsicians is mind-blowing.

For today’s mewsic I borrowed inspiration from 100 Greatest Rock Instrumentals and a few other online resources to create this 10-song playlist for your enjoyment.

 

 

Instrumentals from the 70s playlist song tracks…

  • The Sound of Philadelphia (T.S.O.P.) – MFSB &  The Three Degrees (1973)

What are some of your favorite instrumental arrangements?  

Normally, in this time slot, I host Wild Wednesdays but due to being slightly under the weather I am skipping it this week.  I apologize to any looking forward to linking up.  I hope you’ll travel with me back in time tomorrow with another edition of Rocktober Mewsic Festival!
