And what about the superb KINGS AND QUEENS?

Taptrick WOW - how could I forget the most quintessential 70's acid rock party song. First of all here is my list:
Nektar - Remember The Future
Alliota & Haynes - Lake Shore Drive
Aerosmith - Movin Out
Pavlov's Dog - Julia
Robin Trower - Too Rolling Stoned
Jimi Hendrix - Nightbird Flying
Alice Cooper - Teenage Lament 1974
War - Cisco Kid
Climax Blues Band - Couldn't get It Right
Coven - One Tin Soldier (Theme From Billy Jack)

But I must add Sweet Wine of Love by Robin Trower. I was in junior high in 1977 but this song was on In City Dreams by Robin Trower and it always reminded me of the parties my parents threw in the 70s with a lot of wine, spills, and cleaning up after everybody left - the essence of my 70s:

Let's throw a party
Let's invite ev'rybody
Let's drop some glasses on the floor
Turn up the noise
Have some fun with the neighbors
Let's have them banging on the door

We're having a party
Ev'ryone is invited
Welcome to our little night night
Ring up some friends
And-a ask them over
Let's do this whole thing right

And we'll turn out the lights
When they've all said "good night"
Let the sweet wine of life ever glow
Turn out the light
When they've all said "good night"
Let the sweet wine of love overflow

Yes and down in the street
Where they're wheelin' and dealin'
The corner crowd will see the light
And they'll smile at the window
For they know how we're feelin'
Welcome to our little night

Yes we'll turn out the light
When they've all said "good night"
Let the sweet wine of life ever glow
Turn out the light
When they've all said "good night"
Let the sweet wine of love overflow
