This is so full of misinformation-it is insulting to those of us who actually lived in the 1970’s!
sorry you feel like that
@@Vintage.ShowTV It’s not a ‘feel’ It’s a fact. Loads of your references were false. You’ve just insulted Sandra too!
@@Sandra-vg1jn It was ghastly to watch. I’m from that time also
@@Vintage.ShowTV I lived in the 70's the tv shows and the glass coke bottles were there. They guys has longer hair and I was no exception. I was born in 62 but got my 1st stereo in the 70's. You should learn to research your information better. I took Historiography At Arkansas State University and it taught me how to search for the history of any thing I wanted to know more about.
Some of these shots look 1960's-think need go back re-title 1960s- -
Hell no, that turquoise kitchen thing was 50's/60s. 70s was "avocado green" and "harvest gold." Get your time periods right! I was THERE! Graduated HS in '79! Oh, and the princess phone I had was touch-tone.
Not to mention...
Bookstores.
Record stores.
The ability to support a house and family on a single salary.
Personal privacy.
Civilized air travel.
Freedom, freedom, freedom -- we had so much MORE of it in those earlier decades! This is what I miss the most, along with family members and loved ones who lived back then, but don't live anymore (in THIS realm).
Halloween for kids.
Leisure suits were for casual dress not for more formal events.
I still have a princess phone. It's blue, and has a keypad instead of rotary dialing. Still works fine, as I still have a landline and it's my primary home phone. Still have a working answering machine too. I do have a smartphone for when I'm out. (Jan Griffiths).
Doilies? Definitely not 70’s unless you mean the 1870’s
I believe doilies disappeared during the 50', except maybe for your granny's house.
Bench seats in cars. Bucket seats were once considered novel.
in all the old movies u see the people sliding across the seat. they just won't go around to the other side.
highway patrol shows it a lot. they get in & scoot across.
i member not liking the buckets at well. too far from my boyfriend. haha.
i liked the look tho.
come on to a 67' GTO & i loved it--finally traded it for a 59' vw van. am i an asshole?ha
@@skibee421 amen to all that. sold my 68 Mustang fastback for $800 in 1979. And now I'm too old and inflexible to even kick my own ass lol.
@@pdd60absorbed12 a family member had a red & black fastback. i got to drive it a lil' while he was gone on his motorcycle tripping the lights fanstatic.
i only knew how to drive a standard & it was fun. yep, i sit too much too.
OMG TOTAL THUMBS DOWN!! WAAAAAAAAY too many word mispronunciations!
small tators
Plus a whole lot of totally wrong facts
Yes Chianti
Nehru jackets were in the late 1960's, not the '80's. I still have mine thinking the Smithsonian may want it someday
Most of the items talked about here with, the sucky AI, was late 50's and the 60's.
If I recall correctly, the Beatles and other rock groups wore Nehru jackets. They were enthralled with the mystic aura of India and also minimalist Mod styles.
Platform shoes are back in style. And, not all platform shoes in the 1970s were suede. and they keep showing Halloween costumes as actual 70’s fashion… 🙄
Not only mispronounced but atrociously inaccurate nehru 1960s not 1980s😢
There was a collarless dress shirt fad in the 80s, but they weren't technically "nehru"(which is not collarless, it's a short, upright collar).
Waterford Chrystal is still alive and well. I sold it in a mid range department store and it's still available.
Waterford no longer contains lead, but they are still in business. I have two Waterford whiskey glasses.
@@ghw7192 Waterford has at least 2 grades of merch. If I recall correctly a lower cost version is called Marquis.
Flare legs? It was bell bottom' s.
Yes thank you.😊
I was going to say the same thing. I never heard the term "flare leg" back then. It was bell bottoms. I, too, was young in the 1970s, and I wore some of those.
Flares aren't really bellbottoms...they are more in the "boot cut" style. Bellbottoms are more likened to an exaggerated stovepipe cut.
@@teptime I just know that the bottoms of the pant legs were roughly shaped like bells, hence the name "bell bottoms".
When I was a teenager in the 70s, we did not consider Bonanza Steakhouses as fancy restaurants.
I remember the Bonanza steak houses. Yummy food 😋
thanks for sharing your thoughts
There is still a Bonanza Steak House in Central PA off the I-80 freeway (or Interstate)
I remember the platform shoes mine was a burgundy color high heel have not thought of those in a long time I can't say I miss them to wear them, but I liked the way I looked in them and the jewelry was cute i liked many of the styles and the pendent necklaces of the day and the cool rings. I don't miss the rotary phones
One thing I DO miss is the large department stores.
😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
i didn't have much jewelry thru school, this was when one person worked & it was pretty
tough going. as soon as i got a job i had rings & braclets. & what ever i wanted.graduated
70. had all 10 yrs. to enjoy it. also quit smoking in 75'....a true struggle...no help. like gum.
then. white knuckle it haha miss those times so much~*
Shopping was still good into about 2005.....with Amazon and Walmart everything went to hell 😭
@@brettsprang7991 I totally agree and most of the Malls have closed not a lot of actual walk in options anymore
My mom had a pair of platform boots with block wood heels carved into Easter Island tiki heads, with big red rhinestone eyes. They cost $500 in 1970, about $3,500 today. They came from an LA boutique owned by the once-girlfriend of Jim Morrison.
Baggies were from the 20s. Bell Bottoms low waisted pants were popular in the sixties.
Oh, yeah. I remember hip-huggers, pants with low waistlines. And many bell-bottomed pants were also hip-huggers. Some parents didn't like those on their kids. The hip-huggers always came with very wide buckle belts with huge gromets, in colors that matched or complemented the pants. Oh, the memories!
Houlihans was not a luxury restaurant. It was not a white table cloth sort of place. It was a middle price casual place that was part of the hanging plant trend with a bit of nostalgia of wood paneling and stain glass lighting.
I know huh!! Wtf
I worked in 5 star restaurants n they were never chains!
Omg yes hanging spider plants w macrame hangers! They showed enug macrame but never mentioned it. Dummy AI! 😅
@@user-ig5rl4bw8s Yeah, as dumb as AI currently is, I don't see it as any kind of threat to humanity. If it ever stops being DUMB -- well ... Let's hope it stays dumb.
Water beds were horrible!
My landlady had one in her home. Squishy and hard to move around in. Her home was a single story. Landlords often forbade waterbeds in second story bedrooms. If they leaked, it was disastrous.
This is really terrible. There are photos from the early 1900’s, photos from the 60s, calling them 1980s.
Someone needs to re-examine their research.
Key-an-tea bottle.....
In college we melted candles on to bottles of Reuniti lambrusco
Is this an actual person narrating or an AI voice???
AI
Terrible AI which by the way stands for Arrogant Ignoramus.
That's a good question 🤔
@@BLyle43HaHaHa!!!
@@BLyle43 AMEN!
My grandmother had that exact blue phone lol
i have my pink one from 68'..not a princess, a full phone
that wires into the lines, no easy connections. heavy sucker.
Mine also in the 60's.
Turquoise kitchens were 1950s!!! 79s was olive appliances, and shocking yellow green and yellow, daisy inspired!
There is so much wrong with this plus I hated waterbeds and sunken living rooms came from the 1930s
I've always loved those 70s colors -- harvest gold, avocado green, burnt orange, chocolate brown (also called coppertone), and occasionally I would see a bright red fridge or stove in someone's home. I miss the brilliance of the 70s. And the creativity.
Anyone remember colored bath tissue and colored face tissue? How about solid colored paper towels?
The nicest thing about the 70s was the simplicity (compared to today). I liked the automobiles back then, that weren't loaded with all the computerized, high tech nonsense we have on today's cars. Maybe they weren't quite as safe in some ways, but I think they were safer in others. For one, the DRIVER controlled the vehicle, NOT the technology. I don't feel as safe in a high-tech car, because some of the control has been taken out of my hands, and I'm forced to trust the technology, which can be glitchy and complicated to operate, not to mention making automobiles a LOT more expensive to purchase and repair.
And people weren't phoning and texting while driving back then.
I honestly feel the 70s were a better time, compared to today.
And shag rugs in the living room.
These are things from the 1960's, not 70's
As a kid, I always knew I was in big trouble when Dad said "YOUNG MAN, I WANT TO SPEAK TO YOU RIGHT NOW...*IN THE CONVERSATION PIT*."
Oh yikes, what did I do...
Lol funny i was always taught to get away from creeps in a van like that asap!!! Didn't any non scuzzy guys iwn one?😂
Doilies and hand embroidered linens are way way older than the 70's.
I remember doilies in houses as far back at the 1950s. We had them in our home throughout that decade and beyond. Doilies were by no means a new thing in the 1970s.
The Princess phone being dialed in this video sounds somewhat like a kitten purring.
Cookies were not a seventies thing.
Sorry!
Oh my gosh! There are still “fancy steak houses”, and nice restaurants, all over the country. Who put this $#!+ together???
When I was a teenager in the 70s, we did not consider Bonanza Steakhouses as fancy restaurants.
@@davidcampbell520 I agree with you, 100%. As a 16 year old, I worked in a Bonanza restaurant one summer.
You forgot Head Shops .
Where did this guy get his information? So missed inform. I just could not listen to the end. What a bunch of crap!
I'm at 16:00 and can't decide if I can stand anymore.
"Ricardo MonTALbon"? Come on, now! It's Ricardo MONtalbon! AI, you blew it, again!
Bonanza had tough meat. I used to love Houlihan's
A lot of these look like the 60s, or even 50s. The turquoise kitchen for starters isn't later 70s, I DID like flying around on a 747, with a second story lounge, at my 12 years looked amazing. (I was a pass rider, standby)
Dont remember any waterford crystal decanters! Must have been another decade
Yes the 60s. Mom used to put colored water in them.😂
To this day I refuse to call albums vinyls
A lot of HE here guy!
Shagadelic? Ohh my,,Custom vans I prefer,,,for a Home phone,,I would not mind a rotary,,polyester clothing was the worst
thanks for sharing your thoughts
The old landline phones didn't drop calls. You didn't have to purchase time on them -- as long as you paid your phone bill, you had the service. They were for TALKING, not texting. They were simple to use, weren't mini computers, and everyone didn't go around with them stuck in their ears. I hate "smart" phones! I feel they're largely responsible, along with social media, for the condition our society is in, today.
Never made a doily in my life!! My Nana did it
Neru jackets weren't 1970's they were 1960's. They kept showing The Beatles wearing them but the Beatles were popular during the 60's and broke up in 1970. All of those pictures of the Beatles were taken during the 60's. Doilies weren't 1970s, well before the 70s. Also, what's with all the black and white pictures? I don't remember black and white photos in the 70s except for my school yearbook pictures. I have no recollection of totally turquoise kitchen appliances-brown, gold and avacado-yeah. And what about Lava Lamps and Polaroid Instamatic Cameras?
The rock-en wooden platform shoe. Heavy and truely would tone your legs
18:06 I wouldn't exactly call Bonanza Steak House "fancy". The steaks were highly inferior, and never cooked to order. Fancy was Brennan's, or even Steak & Ale.
And turquoise kitchens? I remember kitchens with country or floral wallpaper. Or at its most extreme, bright orange, aka The Brady Bunch.
The clothes were ugly then and they’re just hideously ugly now. No, I’ll go one step farther…they were fugly then AND now.
Some things you're way off
There is a lot of misinformation in the video. I hgrew up in the late 50's & early sixties. We didn't have dollies, any phone call not in your immediately area was charged as long distance call. Did someone who decided to put this video out really live in the 70's or were they dropped on their head. This is not information but misinformation.
No everyone did 🚭 in the seventies... Geezus 😂 lots of crazy bunk, Cutless cars? Who the 🦆 imperial? Um NO we did not
VERY inaccurate! Should be titled Things from the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s.
8 min is all i could take of this clip. Having grown up during the 70's most of this stuff is just garbage. I have no idea where this clip got it's info from. What a waste of time.
Sounds like an AI talking....they always miss pronounce words
“Chee-anti bottle”? Gurl please. This sucks.
Last I heard, they were pronounced "Cianti" (hard C, like a K).
The commentator likes to make up his own pronunciations.
That is back in 70s water bed back this know goodnight kelsy heater Brandon to sweet go to bed sweet dreams both
Tons of stuff that is NOT CORRECT, especially the AI f ups! Never seen suede platform shoes like that n I wore platforms all the time! They were flat on the bottom, NO heels except for the men's! Nehru jackets!WTF. Beatles wore them in the 60s ,no one wore them in the 70s!! As IF!! NOONE had a camcorder unless rich. Never saw one in my life! Never saw a Houlahans in the NE. Fondue, maybe our parents did for their parties.i have NO IDEA what shirt u were talking about!! We had "silk" Quiana button down shirts with huuge collars and for men unbuttoned to show off sexy chest hair that they shave now! Ewww stubbles HURT! Both men n woman wore with the must have gold chain w n ITALIAN horn or fairy with a coke spoon foot! Altho blow wasn't big yet until way late 70s n more in the 80s. EVERYONE smoked herb! Cops didn't even care, as long as it wasn't a big dealer! Many many many more classic muscle cars. One kid had the 442 Indi pacer car but he was wicked rich, they owned the town Mobil gas station n car repair! So much easier then to fix cars! No computer stuff! Smiley faces in the early 70s were EVERYWHERE! If u didn't have the shirt, u had the button ! Mood rings as well!
We drove alot of 60s cars as well, like my friends 65 Buick Electra with bench seats fitting 8 of us girls easily! Appropriately named the highmobile! It had n Eagle for the hood ornament. U definitely saw us coming!! Back then backseat romance was HUUGE from the 50s until compact cars were invented.Lovers lane was the go to spot for couples! Doritos were invented! I chose to drink Chocolate milk with them. Funny now they r banned in other countries, as well as Gatorade! N many more chemical laden poison food, only available in the USA 🇺🇸 bc chemical Co r HUGE business in Everything from food to rat poison which takes the poor rodent days to die! Bleeding out n becoming an easy meal for all other animals from owls n eagles, raccoons, skunks possums, even foxes, coyotes and Mountain Lions to neighborhood cats n dogs! Along with grass pesticides and run offs from pig farms n corporate farms have caused cancer for decades! Big pharma supporting all this of course! Cancer is a huuge profitable illness that proly had a cure but why spoil a good money maker! Much like cigarettes n alcohol 🍸 the too 2 killer drugs!! Prescription drugs being the 3rd. All the street drugs r last but shown most on the news! Almost forgot gaucho pants!! Long bel pants that fell just over the top of ur knee high boots 👢! Fashion MUST along w long leather jackets! Pimps were known to dress best! 😂l. I cud go on and on about this messed up AI vid! What about 📺 with 3 channels n u had to get up to change the channel!! We also used big manual typewriters n HAD to take typing and HOME economics for girls, bachelor living for boys! Taught us baking first, then cooking and sewing with n old Sears sewing machine. Aprons were the first thing we made, n then I made a skirt and a matching skirt n top w collar n buttons n zippers! Shud still b taught today! Since kids can't even sew on a button! Now ALL Mom's work n the household has never been the same! Mom was always there after school and we had half day kindergarten and Wednesdays! So looked forward to Wed, only in elementary school. I graduated HS in 77 so u know if u remember all of the 70s u weren't there!! It takes me another person to put together the 70s and my first concert was Aerosmith 75 n we hitchhiked! Like 5 of us n got a ride in the hippie van!
Thank you you're really laid this out correctly
I remember hitchhiking was a big thing back then, as was picking up hitchhikers -- until it got really dangerous and girls were being murdered. Then, we all were strongly warned to NOT hitchhike NOR to pick up hitchhikers.
I remember, in my 20s, driving along and seeing this 15-something girl hitching a ride along the highway. I figured I had better pick her up before some pervert did so. She was trying to go home. She told me her address, and I drove her there. But, before I let her out of my car, I lectured her about the dangers of hitching rides and told her she was lucky, this time. Next time, she might NOT be. Then, I let her out and she went inside her home.
And that was the ONLY time I ever picked up a hitchhiker whom I didn't personally know. I was lucky, too, that I didn't get robbed or worse.
75th The 70's were my Teen Years
I turned 20 in 1970. Married in '78. Cool times. Sure do miss them!
