The 70' was the era of Broadstreet Bullies and endless fights. This clip of Islanders vs Flyers Brawl is typical. Both benches clear with lots of action and plenty of helmetless hockey players.
For sure this is the date movie of
the decade. Set in Dublin, the guy is a busker singing on the streets, the woman just arrived in the city, escaping the Sarajevo conflict. She tells him she, "Used to play the piano" and they let her play free during lunchtime when the music store is closed.
Obviously they click.

Early on, music in the 70s was a mess! The advent of Disco seemed like the death knell for the singer-songwriter "smart" music era.
The good news is that change was acoming.
It was an incredibly mixed bag of Outlaw Country, 60s groups becoming more experimental and the debut of punk.
I have included Patti Smith on this page...
Nobel prize, National Book Award and
some powerful music. Yes!
