Another year where artists who will come to define this decade (and the next) are continuing to cement their place. In addition to Elton John's continuous presence on the charts, we're also seeing the Top Ten debut of Neil Sedaka (both as a performer and songwriter), David Bowie, Eagles, and Earth Wind and Fire. The latter is notable for a multitude of reasons, but their fusion of soul, funk, and eventually disco feels like what the decade has been building up to. That funk influence can also be heard in David Bowie's Fame, one of the earlier examples of funk rock featured in these polls.
