Germany was dominant in the 70's and early 80's too.
Steady, they were dominent for 3 years, or Bayern were dominant more like.

They where the La Liga of those times. Look at the others cup(s). back then UEFA and the CWC where big too as only the champions where in the ECC. So you have the 2nd and 3rd teams in UEFA or CWC. So ...

# 1974 - 1975 FC Bayern München

# 1975 - 1976 FC Bayern München
Eintracht Frankfurt - semifinal CWC
Hamburger SV - semifinal UEFA
# 1976 - 1977 Liverpool FC
They played Borussia Monchengladbach in the final.
Hamburger SV - won the CWC
# 1977 - 1978 Liverpool FC
Borussia Monchengladbach was in the semifinals.
And I could go on.
Like in 1978 - 1979 there where 3 german teams in the semifinals of the UEFA Cup and Fortuna Dusseldorf played the final of the CWC (losing aet against Barca).
79-80, Hamburger SV played the ECC final and an ALL GERMAN SEMIFINAL in the UEFA cup (VfB Stuttgart, Bayern Munich, Borussia M'gladbach, Eintracht Frankfurt). It's still a record.
So they where a real power house in Europe.
