Simply " Beautiful ".
@@billycrawford6080 Beautiful Glasgow.
Great video thanks again 👍🌸🩷🏴
7:11 That tram “Hampden Park Special Service” would be for a big football game at the stadium: we could hear the crowd’s famous “Hampden Roar” from Moss Heights. Stadium is shown just after the tram.
Thank you.
I think some scenes are from 1940’s & 50’s, as well as 1930’s.
Thank you for your contining efforts to bring these memories to us! Wonderful as always. You were much missed by your very many followers. Over 1250 views but only 58 likes? Please folks, like and subscribe to keep this channel going! It means so much to so many of us ♥
Thank you for your kind words.
thank god your back as myself and thousands more were missing your great selection of old Glasgow photos, thanks for the effort you put in each time and i hope you carry on for a long time yet. It always brings a joyful tear to my face looking at times gone by, thanks again.
Many thanks...glad you're enjoying the videos.
Loved the smell in the old subway 😂
Atmospheric.
Fabulous photos once again. 7:10 fire at cash and carry. That's outside NCL Carriers where my father worked. I remember that day well.
Thanks again...one of many fire tragedies to hit Glasgow.
A real treat to have yet another collection of old Glasgow photographs thanks to your efforts. Much appreciated! Transport has done well in this batch, and as a bus enthusiast I'm bowled over with the photo of the bus standing at the St. Enoch Square terminus (6:45). It's one of about 40 in the DR series (Daimler rebuild) and is in the original GCT livery. However, not only is it an excellent photograph and in colour, but I've never seen it before and I thought I'd come across all of the very few in existence of this bus. I don't know where you found it but you have done a great service here!
@@ZL54JK8 Thank you...glad you liked the photographs.
Another set of amazing photos, I remember seeing The Who at the Apollo in October '75 also getting the Mearnskirk bus home from Clyde Street. Thanks for posting.
@@daveysmith7580 Thank you...happy memories.
I was at the Marc Bolan & T.Rex concert in January 1974. Complete fan hysteria in a sold out Apollo.
Cosmic Dancer.
Same here
Pleased that you're back! You've been missed. 😊
Thank you.
Great to see your videos back after a gap. I remember the Sher warehouse fire. My classmate's dad was one of the 7 firemen killed. There is something about the Gorbals Childhood photo..... Late 50's fashion and the new high rises going up in the background.
Thank you...the expressions on the children's faces are priceless.
Fascinating, as ever.
Thank you.
@@tatata1543 Thank you.
The Sign Meant That They Were Writing Pens, And It Was A Privilege To Own One, That's, If You Were Literate Enough To To Posses One😅😊😂
I so look forward to the weekly video. It's been a while. I do hope this one isn't the last ♥
Working on the next one...new and decent photos are becoming more difficult to find...but I'll keep searching.
@@colinburrowes8063 I so appreciate the work that you put into this. And how challenging this must be to produce a weekly video. Thank you
Brilliant, thank you.
@@ThomasReed-c1w Thank you.
I loved it. So interesting. Thank you. Especially the one about Grand Central Station.
@@barrypaton9726 Many thanks.
Great pics but really need information, worked out lots of the locations but not all. The second pic shows a BBC van passing BHS pretty sure it’s the “ scene dock” van which was based at BH in Queen Margaret Drive. My Dad drove it for years. Thanks for sharing
Thank you...video 43 onwards have captions.
Thank you so much for these wonderful glimpses into the past and also for some happy memories.
Thank you...glad you enjoyed the pics.
Awe : Wee Jimmy J. - a loved him … and I’m a Rangers man 🙃
1:21. Liz Taylor, in Glesga, and I missed it? why was i not told! lol
last one, the beatles at the odeon, wow !
I'm still in Glesga, for aw ma sins. lol
Best place to be.
@@georgerichardson7728 Dear old Glesga.
The Glasgow corporation destroyed more good buildings than Hitler did greenhead street was one of them
Scotland before the snp and devolved parliament destroyed it
Took before the government let anyone into the country Britain is overpopulated with migrants
I love the contents but it's just to long... Once you've seen the photos & the description you can move on say after 15 seconds. I did enjoyed it thank you for sharing
Thank you so much glad you managed to fit Rutherglenn in born there 1954 been living in Cambridge for 62 years. Went back to see my dear dear auntie in the spring. The image of the two girls smoking near the two smashed up cars got to be an award-winning, surely. It reminds me of one in the picture post 1948 too young lads going to get the messages and find it. It’s worth a look. Thanks again.
Thank you...I lived in Toryglen until the age of nine (1967), and walked into Rutherglen many times, happy memories.
@@colinburrowes8063 I walked through the in the spring seen my old school Where I was born thinking of Nan and grandad as a walk-through, I must admit there was a few tears shed. The older I get the softer I get thank you again I better hit that subscribe button. .
@@ThomasReed-c1wThank you.
i don't know wether to laugh or greet when i look back in time like this, I guess its best to be just thankful for the memories and living the best years Glasgow had in my youth.
Thank goodness we've got our memories.
I nearly said..” ‘84, my era” then I realised… Amazing pics… I used to have book Called ‘The history of Hillhead’. Had loads of great photos and narratives… Maybe you could check it out? Never seen this chan before, but it just popped up in my feed tonight…
“On the doorstep 66” the two woman were saying “oh Margaret bloody England won the cup thingy , we will never hear the end of it” 😂
…and they were right !!!😂😂😂
Do you know the location of the Guy Fawkes night photo from 1978? Calton maybe?
That was the only information with the photo.
@@colinburrowes8063 Cracking photo nonetheless. I recognise someone. Thanks for sharing.
@@dominiccolella6049Thank you.
@@dominiccolella6049 I had a look on the sminternet, and it seems this photo was taken in Bridgeton.
@@colinburrowes8063 did it credit a photographer?
5:23 is tollcross park from the Wellshot Road Entrance , looking down to the bridge.
Thanks for the info.
Loved the WW2 stripes painted in the lamp.
A reminder of days gone by.
Jackie Gleason - the Great One - said of Mickey Rooney ...he would have been as accomplished an actor as Lord Laurence Olivier if he was 6 feet tall ! His height of 5ft 2" hindered him greatly in parts offered over his career . He was a brilliant talent but would have been even better if taller ...Jackie called his wee pal ' spider ' .
I believe Mickey said that he always got married in the morning, so that he hadn't wasted the full day.
Marlon Brando was also an admirer of Mickey.
Everybody who worked with him said he was a little sh*t.
@@davidsandz2186 Yes he called him the best actor in films.
Great Pics.. My dad was born on Elderslie street in 38
Past times...happy times.
Great pictures one thing fantastic about pictures no cars on the streets what a difference
Too many cars...not enough feet on the streets.
Way back when it was Glasgow, now its a total dangerous dive
The world has changed...and not for the better.
My father used to service Ricky Fulton’s car whe he was the workshop manager at RS LOGANS MOTOR ENGINEERS WHIITTINGHAM DRIVE GLASGOW 1960s and Andy Stewart’s rolls Royce he also had an American packhard convertible and an Austin Healy 3 litre sports car they were all stored at the garage I used to sit in them when I was a boy wonder if the cars are still about
Happy memories
You notice the “ fruiterers “ shops? It was always just the fruit shop
why the sad music???
Not sad, evocative, nostalgic.
It was and is part of Strathclyde University
11:34 is west nile st.
Thank you.
Another great selection,thanks👍
Thanks Colin. Love the atmospheric Trongate photo with no vehicles in sight. I think its later in date than you first imagine. The pedestrian crossing lights suggest 1970's or 1980's to me.
You're welcome...I agree, the photo is much later, than it appears to be.
Thank you for another brilliant batch of photographs & memories of Glasgow & surroundings of far better days for these wonderful places.. once again, a huge thank you for sharing these picture Glasgow photographs. 👍👍👍👍.
Many thanks.
The picture of George St 1979. . The building to the left of the pic, with the row of very small windows at the side of the building was either a tech or art college in 1976. I met a very beautiful girl there in Feb 1976 and we were together for the remainder of that year, she was from Netherlee, just outside Glasgow, I was from Perth . Later, my circumstances meant I would be leaving Scotland for a number of years, so we broke up. I still think about her often. Thank you for your great images of the Glasgow I very fondly remember and miss.
Beautiful memories.
It’s part of Strathclyde uni, it’s the students union.
@@jmunro-graham1568 Thank you for letting me know this. When I was there gigging, it was a Valentines Dance in February of 76.
Awww, a sweet and maybe slightly sad memory , it’s amazing how much an image can make you think of certain times and events in your life, even if ppl.
@@COYBIG1967 Yes, and thank you for this comment. I'm in Glasgow often and regardless of where I wander there, these memories come flooding back to me. It was a glorious summer in 76, which makes it even more memorable, so it's still pretty fresh in my mind. You are also right in saying that images like these bring it all back. Maybe one day we will bump into each other again, to share our life experiences, who knows ?. She was very special and also very beautiful, it's very hard to forget someone like that. I hope she is well. Thank you again and good wishes to you.
Another Thursday, another set of fantastic photos. L.P. Hartley was correct, " The past is a foreign country, they do things differently there. " Keep up the amazing work.
Many thanks...the past was another world.
Great photos which bring back a lot of memories. Thanks.
You're welcome.
