The '70s is one of the greatest music decades of all time. Some of the most progressive rock and blues sounds came out of this iconic era, created by a throng of talented, prolific rock'n'roll artists. In tribute, Doyouremember.com is taking a look back at the best rock bands of the '70s and where they are today... starting with the legendary Fleetwood Mac. Read on! Fleetwood Mac Lindsey Buckingham, Christine McVie, Mick Fleetwood, Stevie Nicks and John McVie make up the inimitable and incredibly successful band Fleetwood Mac, who were inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998. Ethereal singer Stevie Nicks stole the show with her one-of-a-kind vocals, but each member contributed their own musical magic. Their biggest albums have been "Tusk," "Rumors" and "Tango in the Night." From songs like "Go Your Own Way" to "Rhiannon," the group has churned out a ton of lush, bluesy hits. Stevie also famously dated Lindsey from 1968 until the late '70s and was briefly linked to Mick in 1977 -- causing a big rift in the band. Getty Images Fleetwood Mac is one of the few bands of the '70s that still perform together after all this time. They've had plenty of drama on-and-off but have been able to work through it. Christine McVie took the longest break from the band -- a 15-year hiatus -- and rejoined in 2015. In June 2017, Lindsey Buckingham and Christine released an album of duets. Stevie Nicks and the classic "Rumors"-era lineup of Fleetwood Mac are set to reunite in 2018 for a world tour -- but don't expect a new Fleetwood Mac album anytime soon. Stevie told Rolling Stone in March 2017, "I don't think we'll do another record. If the music business were different, I might feel differently. What we do is go on the road, do a ton of shows and make lots of money. We have a lot of fun. Making a record isn't all that much fun." The Allman Brothers The Allman Brothers were pioneers of the Southern rock scene. The band was founded by brothers Duane Allman, who played guitar, and vocalists/keyboardist Gregg Allman, and also included Dickey Betts, Jai Johanny Johanson, Butch Trucks and Berry Oakley. The classic lineup was short-lived due to the deaths of Duane and Berry in the early '70s. The band was widely known for its hit singles "Midnight Rider," "Melissa" and "Mountain Jam." Getty Images In May 2017, founding member Gregg Allman (right) died from complications of liver cancer. Drummer Butch Trucks committed suicide in January 2017. Prior to that, the band came together for a legendary Beacon Theatre run in 2008 and a summer tour in 2011, which were both cut short due to Gregg's illness. Surviving guitarist Dickey Betts (left) has toured with his band, Great Southern, over the past few years and drummer Jai Johanny Johanson leads a jazz-rock band called Jaimoe's Jasssz Band. The Rolling Stones The Rolling Stones is arguably the best rock'n'roll band of all time. Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Mick Jagger, Bill Wyman and Ronnie Wood (not pictured) made up the Stones' most famous lineup (though Mick Taylor, right, was also in the band in the early '70s) -- with Bill leaving the band in 1993. The Stones formed in 1962 and their sound evolved throughout the '70s with iconic albums such as "Sticky Fingers," "Some Girls" and "Exile on Main St.," among others. Getty Images The Rolling Stones are the most nimble and active rock'n'roll band of the '70s still performing together today with the same core lineup: Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood. They released "Blue and Lonesome," a blues cover album, in Dcoverr 2016 and will embark on a European tour, "Stones No Filter," in the fall of 2017. All four men have remained steadfast icons of cool, even throughout their ripening. Blondie In the late '70s, Blondie was a force in New York City's punk scene before the band transitioned to a disco-influenced New Wave sound in the '80s. Frontwoman Debbie Harry, with her platinum blonde hair and fierce vocals, leads the band too much success along with guitarist Chris Stein. Their biggest songs are "The Tide is High, "Rapture" and "Heart of Glass." Getty Images Blondie broke up after the release of its sixth studio album in 1982 and Debbie Harry went on to pursue a solo career. The group reconvened in 1997 and have toured together throughout the world and released new albums since. The band is back performing together in the summer of 2017 with Garbage on the "Rage and Rapture" tour. Journey Supergroup Journey formed in San Francisco in 1973. The band has gone through several membership phases -- with iconic frontman Steve Perry hired in 1977 to lead the band to much commercial success with songs such as "Lights" and "Don't Stop Believin'." Getty Images Presently, co-founder and lead guitarist Neal Schon and original member Ross Valory, Journey's bassist, still tour with the band. Arnel Pineda, who sounds uncannily like original vocalist Steve Perry, joined the group in 2007. Steve left Journey in 1987 after the band's "Raised on Radio" tour due to a mixture of health and personal issues. In April 2017, Steve announced a solo LP to come later in the year. Steve reunited with his old bandmates when Journey was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame in April 2017, though Arnel was the vocalist who performed with them during the ceremony. ZZ Top Billy Gibbons, Frank Beard, and Dusty Hill formed the blues-rock band ZZ Top in Houston 1969. The band gained national attention with their strong blues roots and country twang. Their greatest albums include "Eliminator," "Tres Hombres" and "Fandango." Getty Images Today, ZZ Top still performs and tour together extensively. The bearded band has been traveling the world on "The Tonnage Tour" in 2017 and is due to launch the American leg of the concert trek in the fall of 2017. Black Sabbath Black Sabbath is one of the pioneers of heavy metal music. The band includes the infamous Ozzy Osbourne (right) along with Geezer Butler, Tommy Iommi, and Bill Ward. The band has undergone multiple lineup changes over the years but has left an indelible mark on rock'n'roll culture. Getty Images Due to Ozzy Osbourne's issues with drugs and alcohol, in 1979, he was replaced by vocalist Ronnie James Dio -- who was then replaced by various other frontmen over the years. Then something great happened: The original lineup, including Ozzy, reunited in 1997. The group has frequently performed together since then. Today, Ozzy -- who's been plagued by cheating scandals in recent years -- still tours on his own and will perform in the summer of 2017 at various amphitheaters. Tommy Iommi (left) is still an active musician too, as is Geezer Butler (right). Pink Floyd Pink Floyd was an incredibly influential English psychedelic rock band in the '70s. It was founded in 1965 by Roger Waters, Syd Barrett, Nick Mason and Richard Wright. Guitarist David Gilmour (second from right) replaced Syd in 1968 due to Syd's mental health issues. Members always had a rocky relationship with one another but produced some of the most mind-bending concept albums of all time, including "The Wall" and "The Dark Side of the Moon." Getty Images In 1982, the band split amid mounting tensions between Roger Waters (right) and David Gilmour as well as the exile of Richard Wright -- but members have come together here and there for one-off shows over the years. In 2014, David and Nick Mason (left) reunited to release "The Endless River," which included recordings of Richard, who died in 2008. Roger has continued on with his highly successful solo career and has become an exceedingly vocal and polarizing political activist. Aerosmith Aerosmith formed in 1970 with Steven Tyler, Tom Hamilton and Joe Perry and the band was completed with rhythm guitarist Brad Whitford and drummer Joey Kramer. Known for its groundbreaking funk-blues-rock sound, Aerosmith is one of the best-selling rock bands of all time. Getty Images Like many rock bands of the '70s, Aerosmith has experienced its fair share of issues, which included drug and alcohol abuse and the 1979 departure of Joe Perry, who left to embark on a solo career. But after he and Brad Whitford, who'd subsequently left, returned to the fold in 1984, the band regained its early success after the release of "Permanent Vacation" in 1987. They've toured extensively ever since. In March 2017, Aerosmith announced plans for new music. But after nearly 50 years as a band, they're also embarking on a farewell tour in 2017 that is expected to last several years as they travel the globe playing their hits. The Eagles The Eagles were a massive rock band birthed in Southern California in the '70s. The band released an album every year from 1972 to 1976 and disbanded in 1980 following 1979's "In the Long Run." Glenn Frey, Bernie Leadon, Don Henley and Randy Meisner all went on to pursue their own solo careers. Bernie was replaced by Joe Walsh in 1975 and Randy was replaced by Timothy B. Schmit in 1977. Getty Images Don Henley (left) and the late Glenn Frey (second from left) had the most successful post-Eagles solo careers, but the band came back together in 1994 and continued to tour throughout the '90s into the 2000s. In 2007, they released "Long Road Out of Eden." In January 2016, Glenn died while recovering from intestinal surgery. Don has since kept a relatively low profile, while Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit perform regularly. In May 2017, Don confirmed that Glenn's son Deacon Frey and music star Vince Gill would be performing with the Eagles during the band's 2017 summer festival appearances.
