5. Led Zeppelin
The British band Led Zeppelin was also at the forefront of well-known rock bands in the 70s. While the individual band members were outstanding musicians in their own right, together they created something very special. When they were signed to Atlantic Records, it was even without an employee of the record company having seen them live beforehand.

They also stood out from the crowd because they refused to release singles. Their songs were only released as albums. This attitude was partly responsible for the band selling 300 million albums. The creation of album-oriented rock led to a revolution of thematic albums that still endure today.
4. The Beach Boys
If you’re looking for music that makes you feel good, the Beach Boys are your best bet. The California feel-good sound emerged in the 60s and everyone immediately recognizes a song by The Beach Boys when they hear one. The feeling that the pop and rock band creates with their characteristic musical style is indescribable!

With their hits “I Get Around” and “Surfin’ USA”, they unleashed a flood of enthusiasm that made them one of the most commercially successful bands in history. We not only have the Beach Boys to thank for the Californian sound, but also for the more than 80 songs they have released since the 1960s. They are clearly one of the most influential bands of our time!
