In the 1970s, singers typically presented a neutral or American sound in their music, concealing regional accents. Little information about their true voices emerged due to fewer media appearances. Artists like Noddy Holder and Robert Plant had hometown origins that were not reflected in their singing styles. Over the years, exposure to American culture influenced some artists' accents, yet figures like Ozzy Osbourne consistently showcased their Brummie roots, even after years of performing internationally. Films like 'Rockfield: The Studio on the Farm' illustrate the lasting nature of these accents.
In the 1970s, singers often sounded American in songs, masking their regional accents, which were only revealed through rare interviews. This changed over time.
