I guess you could state that the 70's pop music evolved all the way through the decade itself, I mean you had bands like America, James Taylor, Cat Stevens and Neil Young that best fit in the folk orientated pop section of the spectrum.

I will go out on a limb and suggest that Elton John was one of the first artist to bring pop the closest to the rock threshold. From there on it was all blues rock and progressive.
