04-04-2026
I 70's, uno dei decenni magici del rock, tornano sotto la lente d'ingrandimento delle testate musicali. Dopo la classifica dei 100 migliori album degli anni 70 stilata da Ultimate Classic Rock, anche una testata dedita prevalentemente alla classica come Bbc Classical Music si è accostata alla produzione seventies, attraverso una classifica di 51 titoli. "Dai riff pensati per gli stadi alla nascita del sintetizzatore, ecco i dischi fondamentali che hanno definito il decennio più creativo del rock - scrive il magazine nell'introduzione - Gli anni Settanta non furono semplicemente una sbornia post anni Sessanta; furono un’esplosione ad alta fedeltà di ambizione. In soli dieci anni abbiamo assistito alla nascita dell’heavy metal, allo sfarzo e all’avventura del prog-rock, all’ascesa dei cantautori, al battito al neon della disco e alla rivoluzione spigolosa del punk. Fu il decennio in cui lo studio di registrazione divenne uno strumento e l’album la forma d’arte definitiva", conclude Bbc Classical Music.

Ecco allora la classifica dei 51 migliori album degli anni 70, secondo Bbc Classical Music (qui il servizio completo). Potete confrontarla con la classifica di OndaRock dei migliori dischi dei 70s'.
