My friend Mike was telling me he had a harder time finding 1960s SF books at the library than 1950s SF books. And for some reason, 1980s books are the most popular at my blog. I feel 1970s did become different, but like the counter-culture 1960s bled into the 1970s for a few years, before the 1970s developed it's own identity, it was also true for science fiction. To me, what really started the 1970s, was the Ace Specials that begun in the late 1960s.  http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pubseries.cgi?31+3 - I hope this link comes through. Many of these books are forgotten now, but at the time they garnered some impressive reviews.
