"As good as" is all subjective. You think these songs are as good as Kashmir or Slow Ride, that's completely cool and I respect that. I don't think they are as good but that's not the point.
How many folks know songs from each list? My mother HATES "Iron Man" but she knows the song. Do you really think she knows "Survival Of The Fittest" or "So On And So On"?
LOL
Because let me tell ya, she doesn't.
Music from the 70's was pervasive, it was not an exclusive club, a fragmented subset of artists like it is today. "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald," like it or hate it (I happen to love it) is probably more well known by a larger audience than any of the songs on your list…. and that is just ONE example of ONE song from the 70's, there are 1000's.
And for the record, I am in NO WAY saying that Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald is BETTER than any song on your list, THAT is subjective.
Also, I didn't list songs, I listed BANDS. Many of the bands I listed, most actually, had more than one song that we still know today.
