21 1970s Things, Shows, and Groups We Bet You Don’t Remember

Daniel Bonfiglio Published 01/13/2025 in wow

No matter how recent they feel, the 1970s happened 40 years ago, and you're getting old. Your memory probably isn't what it used to be, but even if it was perfect, we don't think it'd remember all of these shows, groups, and things from the 1970s.

A few? Sure. But you can't tell me you actually listened to "The King Biscuit Flower Hour."

1. PeeChees
Folders for school work, and more.
2. Tang Juice
It seems like the moon market wasn’t good for longevity.
3. England Dan and John Ford Coley
“Dr. Heckle and Mr. Jive” is one of the best album titles I’ve ever seen.
4. Toy Parachuters
Stick them in toy rockets, or slingshots for extra fun.
5. Tab
(It did not taste good.)
6. "Land of the Lost"
With even worse effects than the original Star Trek.
7. Terrazzo Circular Classic Washfountain
Not a urinal. (Unless you really want it to be.)
8. Oscar Mayer
Olive Loaf was not the answer.
9. Toughskins Jeans
Made by Sears.
10. Stuckey’s
Pecan log rolls and pecan divinity.
11. Shields and Yarnell
Dynamite mimes.
12. “Every Which Way But Loose”
Clint Eastwood was in what?
13. Fondue Set
And some fun parties.
14. The Banana Splits
Neither Sesame Street nor the Muppets had anything on these guys. (Although let’s be honest, that’s not true.)
15. Stratego
One of the better board games around.
16. "The Electric Company"
A young kids’ show with over 700 episodes.
17. Tony Orlando and Dawn
That’s two names, not three.
18. "The King Biscuit Flower Hour"
Saturday night tunes from 1973.
