For those who might be interested in the American Pre-Punk/Proto-Punk, Punk, Art Punk and Post-Punk (1961-80), 
I'd like to mention the very informative and well-written book
From the Velvets to the Voidoids. A Pre-Punk History for a Post-Punk World (1993) by Clinton Heylin.

And how to miss a bit of early 70's lyrics like these  Tongue

Led Zeppelin - "Stairway to Heaven"  (a part of)

       There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
and she's buying a stairway to heaven
................
There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
And it makes me wonder

(from the 1971-album, often called "IV")

As you probably can imagine, I have this album in my collection and am quite fond of it as well.

Only artists not represented in the archives (which is why non prog by Garbarek, Miles, Hancock mm… is missing). Maybe something like this:

Don Cherry - Brown Rice/Don Cherry
Brigitte Fontaine & Art Ensemble of Chicago - Comme à la Radio
Alice Coltrane featuring Pharoah Sanders - Journey in Satchidananda
Leonard Cohen - Songs of Love and Hate
Joni Mitchell - Court & Spark (but it could be a handful of others by her)
McCoy Tyner - Asante
Minnie Riperton - Come to My Garden
Herbie Mann - Stone Flute
Linda Perhacs - Parallelograms
Selda - Selda
Curtis Mayfield - Superfly
Mal Waldron - Tokyo Bound
Marvin Gaye - What’s Going On
Thin Lizzy - Vagabonds of the Western World
Egisto Macchi - Voix

+Bowie, Zeppelin, Sabbath... loads more I could have considered. After all it's the 1970's. I couldn't decide on which Morricone, but he should have been on a such a list made by me.

A bit more lyrics from the second half of the 70's:

Television - "Torn Curtain"  (a part of)

Torn Curtain reveals another play
Torn Curtain, Such an expose!
I'm uncertain when beauty meets abuse
Torn Curtain loves all ridicule

TEARS...TEARS rolling back the Years
YEARS...Flowing by like tears
Tears holding back the years
Years. The tears I never shed
The years I've seen before

  (from the album Marqee Moon (1977))
