Punk rock became all the rage in 1977 with bands like The Sex Pistols and The Ramones. These bands were very entertaining on stage and drew big crowds. The Ramones “Ramona”.
Kiss was successful with their outrages make-up and costumes. “Got Love for Sale”
Fleetwood Mac became more popular when they added new members and changed their style of music. They came out with two very successful albums which sold more than 11 million copies.“Never Going Back Again”
Both James Taylor and his wife Carly Simon were doing well. Taylor with his platinum record JT and her single “Nobody Does It Better”
In R&B TheCommodores were a great success with hits like “Brick House”
This was the year that the world of music took a heavy hit losing both the King of Rock and Roll Elvis and crooner Bing Crosby to the angels.

Heard «I Was Made for Lovin’ You» from the every corner in 90-s. And it was very cool!!!
There were many memorable songs that you didn’t mind listening to over and over again, Anastasia.
Punk was never really close to me … I knew sex pistols and Ramonse …. I know Kiss too
They were quite popular at that time.
Love Brick House. Nobody Does it Better was a James Bond movie theme. Fleetwood Mac. Wasn’t a Kiss fan..and the Ramones I only remember by name. Great post.
Glad you enjoyed this post, Linda. 007 was at the top of popularity at that time along with all the theme music.
I was stuck by 1977. I listened to Neil Young most of the time. I did love the Bond Theme (Carly Simon) and I also enjoyed James Talor. But Kiss I didn’t listen to. The Ramones were epic!
Times were changing but you could still get great music at the end of the 1970s Doc.
There was some, too much Disco on the radio. I had moved to cassettes and 8 tracks by that time, and didn’t listen to much.
Lots of Steely Dan. Mostly Neil Young.
