Other than that you've got Black Sabbath,Grateful Dead(I tend to lump them in as a 60's hippie band,but they were mega popular in the 70's),Yes,Pink Floyd(don't ignore their 60's work.There first album is one of my favorites.),The Doors were more of a 60's band but they lasted until Jim Morrison died in the early 70's,Earth,Wind,and Fire is a great Funk/Soul band,Elton John was at his peak,Mungo Jerry is a less popular but still great Blues/Jugband type of deal,The Beatles released their last album and their individual efforts started after they broke up (I prefer John Lennon,but they all had some respectable stuff),Jefferson Airplane became Jefferson Starship (Airplane's better if you don't mind a 60's band),The Velvet Underground were at their prime in the late 60's but they went on into the early 70's,Billy Joel was starting out and hit his stride around 77,aaaand the Jackson 5 got fairly popular,which paved the way for Michael's solo career.
