Great video! I turned 16, got my first car and "discovered" girls!!! 1970 was a fantastic turning point in my life. Take me back, please!
I was seven in 1970. I loved hot wheels cars and the bright orange plastic tracks that you could piece together all over the house. I had a Flip Wilson/Geraldine Jones doll I got for christmas. You pulled a string on the doll and it would say funny Geraldine classic phrases like "The devil made me buy this dress"..My stepdad had a pickup truck with an 8-track stereo system and a bumper sticker on the rear bumper that said America Love it or Leave it..
I loved the 70s ... It would be nice to have that kind of life today. It was awesome.
I just remember being so darn happy!
A lot of memories. Turned 16 in 1970, born and raised in So Cal. got a VW Bug, tricked it out and naturally started cruising Van Nuys Blvd!! a lot of fun times.
I was 16 in 1970, those were cool times! Haaaa
I absolutely love your channel it brings back so many good memories that had been forgotten!
Took me back if only for a moment, I remember well , beautiful, just wish I could return for a while .
Thank you for those great memories of the 70s
I was only 2 years old in 1970! I do remember the later 70’s and really enjoyed the music of that time. I can’t wait to see the new videos that you are going to make.
I'm such a fan of the 70's! This video was awesome! Thanks for bringing back some great memories!!!
Born in 61 I have only good memories of the 70s and 80s, when we were' truly free and rich.
I was 8 years young on this year. I think that it was 1972 when Monty Python showed up on PBS in San Antonio TX. This show saved my life LOL. I was 16 when I got my 1st muscle car, a used metal flake green Challenger, forget the year of it's make. Young and dumb, I loved being a kid in the 70's. Lots of firsts for me in that decade. Mom was head of the switch line dept. for Southwestern bell then.
Back To The Past . Excellence !
Even though I was just a kid I could name all the muscle cars. I tried to convince my dad get the purple station wagon we took a test drive in...that was purple..with a 427...He didn't go for it. 🤣 I remember those fringe jackets. A few people I knew had them. I thought they were cool. 🤣 And they kinda were. 😐 🤣 A very good decade. Great channel.
This brought back some memories.
I was 17 years old in 1970 I went to work that year summer a lot of the people are still driving cars from the 60s 6465s and of course you’re right gas was about $.30 a gallon I could fill my car up for five dollars can’t do that anymore but you didn’t make the money back there that you might now I sure like these videos I’m going to subscribe I’ll give you a thumbs up thanks for the videos have a great day or night wherever you may be 👍👍😎❤️
My best thing was I meet a very beautiful Brunette on 9/13/79, went out 9/15/79 and we have been together ever since. Married 8/30/83 and 3 kids since and we are still together. I think her mini skirts had a lot to do with it, boy I sure miss them.
Congratulations. That’s a beautiful story.
If you still want to see her in a miniskirt….its true love! Go get her one and enjoy!
I graduated from high school then and remember the music very well
70's will never be topped. When music peaked. After 70's it began a down hill slide.
Things were simpler than for sure, except without today’s technology. I was only 11 I. 1970 but my better memories were late 70s when I turned 20 in 1979 and was blessed to buy my dream car. It’s a 73 Pontiac Trans am that I still own to this day and I’m now 62 years old. God bless all and God bless America, peace to all 🙏
Wow. That is very cool. I was born in 1968 and have become fascinated with the 70s. It was wonderful that you had the hindsight to hang on to your first car. I wish I would have hung on to everything I ever had as a kid. I understand now, you must hang on to the memories you can. Unfortunately, I don’t have much (physically) to look back on today, from the 70s.
I remember starting kindergarten. I dunno if it was the first day but I do remember crawling between my teachers legs and escaping out the door to run and find my big brother.
I had separation anxiety and it took a few weeks every year to be able to go to school.
I also got left behind at school one day and didn't know how to get home so I just sat on the steps to the school and eventually my mom drove up.
Then my dad had a massive stroke which left him paralyzed on his left side. He could walk but his left arm was useless. I never saw him in the hospital but I kind of remember him being helped into the house (I don't remember who helped him).
1970 is also the year I met my best friend.
Not only good, sensational....great. job fellas...
I was in the 7th grade. I really miss that year.
By 1970 I was a Sophomore in high school. I had been working with a framing contractor summers and weekends since I was 11 years old and I was making regular carpenter's wages by age 13. I bought with my own money a 1967 Yamaha 125 dirt bike, a 1961 Thunderbird convertible and a 1966 Mustang. Gas where I was cost .25 cents a gallon. In 1970 I was 15 years old!
Hello, I was in the Marines at Camp Pendelton, Cali. was getting discharged that year, I glad to get out, John from North Carolina.
Semper Fi! Thank you for your service! I wasn't in the area until 1973 when I stood in the yellow footprints at MCRD, San Diego, CA. So many memories!
Our coming of age time, great memories.
Pistol grip shifters in muscle cars with 8 track tapes playing Clapton & the Allman Bros. Girls wearing jeans to school for the first time. A distinct aroma inside the arena at Led Zep concerts. Avoiding military service in Viet Nam.
11 in 1970, this was a fun watch. Certainly looking forward to the ensuing years!
In Canada if you lived along the boarder you get American channels and Canadian, no need for cable either back then. Remember using my bunny ears to tune into JP Patches
So we could buy an avarage house for the price of 1177 lava laps.
Try doing that now.
Just keeps getting better and better my man! ☝
I was 12 that year and starting Jr. High School!
I was a grad of 1970 and went to work for W.T. Hawkins , the makers of Cheezies.
I was 13 in 1970. I had a blast as a teenager.
Tootsie Roll tootsie pop the owl I was only 6 and my dad coming home from Vietnam his 2nd Tour he did 4 in all
If he's still around, please tell him thanks for his service! Your father deserves that and more!
Holy crap the had a "Picture phone" 🤳
I was in my first year of Jr high. As they say, if you remember 1970 you weren't there. LOL!!!
Peggy Lipton (girl in thumbnail and Rashida Jones' mom) was an absolute babe! I remember having a mad crush on her back in the day.
February 1970, the first time that I got high.
I remember near the end of 1970 Jimi Hendrix died
Good ole 70’s didn’t wear seatbelts, could ride on the back of your truck or trailer didn’t have to lock up your car or house NZ had one tv channel, made it easier to pick a program. Cheap fuel, takeaways, KFC was finger licken good.
That's Rashida Jones' mommy, Peggy Lipton.

And just wait a year or so and the great "rural purge" happened to popular and waning TV shows... only to resurrect in a way years later with The Dukes of Hazzard!!
How have lava lamps escaped inflation?
they didn't. They were HORRIBLY overpriced in 1970
I was born in '74, but seriously, the 70's had some of the ugliest clothes ever produced. I still remember my P.E. teacher in 2nd grade would wear those godawful multicolored striped pants.
Ya but pretty much everyone dressed like that so it wasn't unusual.
Have you noticed what young people are wearing this days! I mean who walks around wearing their pants down to their knees. Just saying 😂
I graduated high school and got married
