The music from the 70s was a time for piano men and singer-songwriters Billy Joel and Elton John to gain mass appeal across the globe. Along with his songwriting partner, Bernie Taupin, Elton John wrote many beautiful piano based songs, with their most successful album being the popular “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road“, which went platinum very quickly. The always flamboyant Elton John was known for wearing outlandish glasses, platform shoes and costumes during his performances. 5 time Grammy Award winner Billy Joel not only produced hit after hit after hit in the U.S. but he also sold over 150 million albums worldwide. Albums like “Piano Man”, “52nd Street” and “The Stranger” are still being sold in music stores right now! As a matter of fact, along with the music from the 60s, the music from the 70s is the most popular decade of music playing on the radio today. It seems as if every other radio station is a classic rock station.
