Thanks in advance.

Maybe what you could do is lookup top hits from each year?
When I want some 70's, I'll usually listen to Electric Light Orchestra, Pink Floyd, Supertramp, BeeGees (Yes, Beegees!), Emerson Lake and Palmer, Kool & the Gang, Parliment, Lynrd Skynyrd, etc.
The only thing I would really listen to from the 60's might be the Beatles and of course, The Doors. There's nothing I listen to from the 50's and earlier. I tried listening to old Blues from the 1940's but just can't get into it enough. John Lee Hooker and Ella Fitzgerald excluded.
Regardless of what anyone says, just pick an era and start exploring. I'm sure you'll find something you really like.
