The Time Machine pays a visit to 1974 this time.

Dolly Parton made perhaps her best album, which featured two of her greatest songs. Stevie Wonder wrote probably his most political song yet, and he wrote a song for the band Rufus. Joni Mitchell recorded her most successful album of her long storied career. Bob Dylan recorded his final album with the band and stayed Forever Young. It was also a funky year with big albums from James Brown and Parliament, and Richard Nixon became the first president to resign from office.
