Living in the 70s JOY 94.9 - LGBTI, LGBTIQA+, LGBTQIA+, LGBT, LGBTQ, LGB, Gay, Lesbian, Trans, Intersex, Queer Podcasts for all our Rainbow Communities

Last week we brought you part one of our exploration of Seventies musical artists in alphabetical order. On this week’s show,  we continue our journey through the alphabet, covering the letters I to P.  From Iggy Pop to the Pointer Sisters, it’s an orderly progression through some Seventies fabulousness.

We love a theme challenge here at Living in the Seventies. A little while ago the team from Saturday Breakfast gave us the idea to create some shows using the alphabetical as an organising theme. Of course 26 tracks is more than we can fit into one show, so welcome to part one of three shows featuring tracks from Seventies artists in alphabetical order! And yes, we even got tracks from artists starting with U and X. Cool, eh?

Last week we celebrated Marty’s birthday, this week it’s Venetia’s turn. All of the tracks this week have been chosen by Marty in Venetia’s honour. Did he choose as well as Venetia did? We’ll soon find out. Happy birthday Venetia!

It’s Marty’s birthday! To celebrate, this week all of the tracks have been chosen by Venetia in Marty’s honour. Did she choose well? Marty will be the judge. Happy birthday Marty!

It’s that time of year again, when in recognition of a certain event on the Christian calendar (though with deeply pagan roots), we trawl through the Seventies musical canon for songs with a spiritual bent. And there are plenty to choose from. So if you fancy something a little uplifting to accompany you while you butter your hot cross buns and hunt for easter eggs, we’ve got the perfect playlist for you.

We had so much fun travelling down memory lane last week, paying track from artists we have seen live, that we though we would do it again.  This week we remember even more concerts, featuring artists who were releasing music in the Seventies.
