(Finished March 20th, 2024) Part 8 of The Top 200 Rock Songs of the 70s: 80-65

Hello,

I’m using the website ultimateclassicrock.com/70s-songs/ as the foundation for this series of blogs. This is a very rough ranking of the Top 200 70s rock songs from this Ultimate Classic Rock countdown. I won’t be able to get all the rankings done tonight. I will do the best I can.

From Ultimate Classic Rock’s blog I’m not sure they have 200 songs, to fill out this countdown to 200 I am going to add a few songs. I will note those that are added.

80) Joe Walsh “Rocky Mountain Way”:

79 Wings “Band On The Run”:

78) Deep Purple “Smoke On The Water”:

77) Ram Jam “Black Betty”:

76) Manfred Mann’s Earth Band “Blinded By The Light”:

75) Elton John “Bennie and the Jets”:

74) The Pretenders “Brass In Pocket”:

73) Pat Benatar “Heartbreaker”:

72) The Doors “Roadhouse Blues”:

71) Golden Earring “Radar Love”:

70) Led Zeppelin “Kashmir”:

69) The Cars “Just What I Needed”:

One of the least appreciated songs of the 70s. No way does it get enough airplay. 68) The Sweet “Ballroom Blitz”:

67) Yes “Roundabout”:

66) Blue Oyster Cult “Don’t Fear The Reaper”:

65) John Lennon “Instant Karma”:
