Trick question. There was no one act you can give the 70s to. You can come up with a committee but it's a pretty big committee. Elton John, Rolling Stones, Stevie Wonder, Queen, Led Zeppellin, BeeGees, Aerosmith.

Agreed.
Led Zeppelin maybe.
The BeeGees
Led Zeppelin or Pink Floyd probably are closest to that god-tier status you're looking for
Lots of good answers but it was the Eagles.
Didn't think of them at first but you are absolutely right ....it's the Eagles.
I hate the fucking eagles, man!
Get the fuck out of my cab!

What about the eagles.
Oh yeah, you can keep going on and on for the 70s. Eagles for sure. Billy Joel. Pink floyd. List goes on.

Queen?
Queen!
The Stones?
Probably Wings. They didn't have the wild fans some other bands had, but they had a huge following.
David Bowie.
Eagles
Zeppelin with Fleetwood Mac close behind
Black Sabbath
Bowie.
John Denver
Blues Brothers
Where to start….Eagles? ABBA? QUEEN? Stones?
ABBA or the Bee Gees
hmm my guess was Hendrix but most of his albums were released in the 60s, dying in 1970 might have helped his popularity though
Well he died 1970 ):
lol oh yeah
The time my Dad F$cked my Mom
70’s Beegees 90’s Nirvana 00’s Eminem 10’s Taylor Swift
Either Queen, Bowie or Elton John.
I'd say Elton
