This was the only successful album that Bill and Boyd had in their homeland, it was originally released the previous year here in Australia following their touching tribute to the victims of Cyclone Tracy, however it was delayed a release over there for some reason and only became a success due to the surprise hit… Continue reading Biggest albums of the 70’s II

Biggest albums of the 70’s NZ I
This was an album that refused to die on the NZ charts, granted this was also the case worldwide but the kiwis kept this around in the mainstream for quite a number of years since its initial release hence why it’s appearing on this list. Peak position #3 POPULAR IN 1975 This became a success… Continue reading Biggest albums of the 70’s NZ I

Well I guess I should look at what was big throughout the 70’s in NZ considering how I did the same for Australia on this site, this list will be even shorter given how the RIANZ charts only began in mid 1975, meaning I won’t have carry over hits from 1974 like I did on… Continue reading Biggest hits of the 70’s NZ IV

Biggest albums of the 70’s Australia VI
This was a collaboration album between Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin, the latter of who was the key artist from the band Mahavishnu orchestra which was an American jazz rock band that saw no success in their career. Heck this was the only success Tom achieved in his career, and it was off the back… Continue reading Biggest albums of the 70’s Australia VI
Biggest albums of the 70’s Australia V
Now this is an odd entry, mainly because I’m featuring an artist who’s since changed their identity as this soundtrack from a Clockwork orange comes to us from someone named Walter Carlos. The thing is, she now goes by Wendy Carlos making her (to my knowledge) the first trans woman to find success in the… Continue reading Biggest albums of the 70’s Australia V
Biggest albums of the 70’s Australia IV
We have two entries from Chicago on this list, this one is their fifth self-titled album which was a bit of a comeback for the band given how their fourth entry was a complete dud for them here in Australia. They would struggle for success following this album but came back stronger than ever later… Continue reading Biggest albums of the 70’s Australia IV

She may be a one hit wonder here in Australia with the lead single from this album, however that single was apparently all the incentive we Aussies needed in checking out the album it came from as it became one of the more successful to come out this decade. I’m guessing this was due to… Continue reading Biggest albums of the 70’s Australia III
