About San Francisco's 70s HITS
San Francisco's 70s HITS is the Bay Area's destination for the pop and rock sounds that defined one of music's most eclectic and culturally rich decades. Broadcasting from a city that was itself a driving force behind 1970s music culture — from the Grateful Dead's Haight-Ashbury roots to the singer-songwriter boom that put Laurel Canyon on the map — this station celebrates an era when radio playlists were gloriously unpredictable and every week seemed to bring a new classic.
The playlist on San Francisco's 70s HITS covers the full commercial sweep of the decade: soft rock staples from Fleetwood Mac, Carole King, and James Taylor; disco-era crossover hits from Earth, Wind & Fire and the Bee Gees; AM radio mainstays from Three Dog Night, Elton John, and the Eagles. The Bay Area's own contributions to 70s music get their due as well, with Journey, Santana, and Sly and the Family Stone woven throughout the rotation. Programming runs deep into the decade's catalog, surfacing album tracks and forgotten radio gems alongside the era's most enduring hits.
