70's Instrumentals

Well, this was recorded in 81, so close enough I think. Comments? No MIDI was harmed.

Several 1970s-Inspired INSTRUMENTALS that would sound great in TV Commercials are needed by the Publishing division of a well-known Label.

NOTE: This request is pretty wide-ranging, so we opted out of including references. We felt they could be more misleading or limiting, than helpful. If you need a refresher on the decade, here's a list of Hits from the 1970s (use this list only to get you in the '70s zone, as this company does NOT want to hear any copies or soundalikes): Hot 100 No. 1 singles of the 1970s

Please submit Instrumentals that capture the essence of the music being released during the 1970s and could work well for TV Commercials. Popular 1970s genres like (but not limited to): Funk, Disco, Soul, Soft Rock, Singer/Songwriter, etc., etc., are all on the table for this request, and you'd be wise to keep them emotionally upbeat! Can you dig it?

TAXI Tip: They’re NOT interested in hearing Instrumentals that sound like backing tracks minus vocals. Your submissions should have melodies on top! We've often found that touches of melody may work better than complete melodies which can sometimes sound like String sounds 101 if you catch our drift!

NOTE: Recent recordings that sound retro can work for this request; but if you’ve got any original vintage pieces that actually date back to the 1970s, this publisher wants to hear them as well!

Your Instrumentals should be 3 minutes or less. Short intros (or no intro at all), easy edit points, and Non-faded, Buttoned/Stinger endings are all strongly recommended for this pitch. Era-Appropriate Broadcast Quality is needed.
