To continue our journey through the theme, let’s move on to the next decade, the fairly wild 1970s.

 

As with the previous music-themed Word Scramble, bear in mind that these are all British bands that were formed during the 1970s, as perhaps you may associate some of them more with the '80s when they were more popular. A few of them are very obvious ones (have I heard the term punk?) whilst others are more left field (see what I’ve done here?) picks. Also, no solo artists or acts, just bands.

Some people see things as they are and ask "Why?"; I dream of things that never were and ask "Why not?"
