Ahh, the 1970s. An era defined by discos, heading to the theater to watch the premiere of Star Wars, shaggy carpets and even shaggier hair. But when the people of that bygone era weren't busy playing with their pet rocks or ironing their tube socks, they got into a whole lot more fun stuff — more specifically, taking some seriously stunning photographs.
From Cher and Elton John enjoying what appears to be a night on the town to six-year-old Michelle Obama hanging outside of a white house decades before moving into the White House, here are 20 wild photos that exemplify the groovy spirit of the 1970s.
