Epic 70’s songs and bands

Not much guitar but jeepers, what a song. Amoureuse is a French song by Véronique Sanson, released the year before this version. Olivia Newton John and Helen Reddy had a crack at it too, albeit with slightly different French-English translations. I think this is the definitive version, produced by Elton John. Kiki Dee live, 1973.

Love, love that bass guitar, and how it just drives that "Head First" tune. You just don't hear
and feel bass guitar like that in current music. I think that is one of the things I love so much
about 60's and 70's (and even 80's) music is the instrumental nature of the bass guitar and
how central it is to a song. Now everyone is like Jason Newsted trying to find themselves in the
mix, wondering why the guitars are so bottom heavy and the kick drum is so prominent.

I can't even hear me!!!!!???!!! ;)
