Ah, the 70s—the era of flared trousers and platform shoes. A time when movies like 'The Godfather' and 'Jaws' hit the big screen. Did you know there was such a thing as intervals in a movie, and the ushers and usherettes would walk down the aisle selling ice cream? It's how my parents met, but that's a story for another time.
So, my love for music didn’t really start until the 80s, but the 70s is the time that everyone goes back to with 70’s themed parties. Having DJ'd my fair share of them, I bring you a 70s party playlist. It’s a mix of the most requested songs I've received while DJ'ing some epic 70s themed parties.
