I think it's pretty much a slam dunk that the period ~1975 to 1980 had the biggest explosion of great, influential music in pop culture history. Everything from Zep to Sabbath, AC/DC, Skynyrd, the Ramones, the Sex Pistols, the Clash, P-Funk and on and on was out and hitting on all cylinders.
There's been a ton of great music since then, there still is now, but that half-decade or so was just amazing.

Around 1980 we had the Hillbillies, Taxi, WKRP, Green Acres, the Stooges, Get Smart and MASH on TV every weekday afternoon. That was a very good time.

Pontiac Firebird.
Clue is the 455 on the hood scope. Camaro would be 454.

Oh man, I was raised by a single Mom working multiple jobs in the 70’s. I was a latchkey kid, left to my own devices.
When Mom got home the phonograph came on, my Mom had a meager selection of her favorites. 50 some years later I can still remember the words to Delta Dawn…

There's a good story behind this one. Please elaborate. And you need to write an autobiography. For real. For those who don't know Harry IRL, they could seriously make a movie about the dude's life.

Gotta admit, I’m a bit jealous of those who came of age in the 70’s, seemed great (other than disco).

Heh. In some ways the weed was better. So weak you could actually pass a joint around. Now it’s two or three hits.
‘Member weed bricks? Compacted shit you had to flake apart before deseeding?
Or blonde hash under glass?
Maybe. The beginning of MASH with Blake wasn’t too bad. Potter ruined it.
The movie was the first movie I remember. The only drive in we ever went to as a family. A double feature with Patton. But major houlihans titties were seared into my young brain.
PS. ‘Member car hoods so thick you could lie on them while watching a movie?
Dayuumm. Nice legs. I hope you got her genes. Or at least her jorts
