Senior in high school. Good times, good fun, good memories. Thanks.
+Elizabeth Brown You're welcome Elizabeth !!!
Me too. Awesome movies, music, and amazing pop culture
My grandpa bought a new car that year. 1973 Charger. I still have it
Thems cool ones..!
*That car is a collectors item if it's got the supercharged engine and its in anything resembling reasonable condition! I had one of those too, in 1973! I wrecked it tho...*
That's really cool and when you give it to one of your kids it'll be great grandpa's car and then great-great-grandfather's car when it goes to one of your grandkids
I was eighteen...movies were so good, and All in the family
I was 6 . In 1973 . . And I watched all in the family with my 3 older brothers . . And I still love all in the family .
I was born in 73 so I didn’t see Enter the Dragon when it first came out but I went to see the 50th anniversary in the theater. Terrific
Wow!! I was a kid but remember it so well!!!!!!
☮️💟
Thanks JC !
Wow , just to watch this and for a few seconds go back to that time was awesome. The Partridge Family, Brady Bunch. man what a trip!
That was my go to night in the early 70's :)
My strongest memory of 1973 when I was 6 years old was watching a perfectly beautiful red horse named Secretariat blow away the field in a supernatural performance during the Belmont and becoming the first Triple Crown winner in 25 years. God I loved him!
My Dad was a horse racing fanatic, so that memory jumps out at me too :)
Definitely the greatest moment of 1973.
Debra Enderle Yes! I’m from Kentucky and we would either go to Churchill Downs or Keeneland in Lexington. Big Red was one of my first memories of how fabulous horses are!
*Secretariat was the very first time I ever bet on a horse (at OTB though). I remember winning, but I don't remember the amount - I was too excited to care!*
You same age as myself ' I 'll be 56 on Feb 12 ' you remember Glam rock from this time? T Rex ' Slade eg ' and David Bowie during his fashion craze ' make up eg.
MY GAWWWWWD I miss the 70's. I was so young and dumb. Everything was new. So much to learn, see, taste, touch, feel, do. I was so hopeful, so filled with love and a lust for life and adventure.
OH GAWWWWD how I miss the 70's !
Hey V.G ! Thanks so much for watching. My Vids covered the entire 70's :):):)
Absolutely my pleasure !
I was 9 years old. I remember all of it. It was a fascinating time to grow up!! So glad that i was there. I always thought it would have been a interesting to be an adult at that time.
Many thanks !!!
I don't remember it....but I was born in 1973...thank you 😊
+Tammy B I hope you liked your Happy Birthday Video Tammy :) - JB
me too
Me too, April.
Me too 11th September 😢
Watching that Elvis special was a Big event for us. Elvis was my favorite singer but Bad Bad Leroy Brown was my favorite song at that time
These are great series! I was 9 in '73. it was so long ago, yet I remember it like yesterday. My first full season as a Mets fan. I didn't miss a game on TV that year, and the World Series loss was a bitter disappointment.
The commercials are such cultural markers of their time. It's remarkable how the memories flood back after not seeing these commercials after 40+ years.
There is so much to think about and say about those times, the 1970s. We have so much tech today, and are more connected in ways we couldn't imagine then. Yet, in many ways times were better back then. this is pre-internet, no smartphones, or digital existence. Yet, growing up then was a wonderful experience. It was one of the best times of my life.
Even though I grew up as a Yankee fan I have to admit... that was the most exciting baseball season ever !!!
My brother was born this year on June 29 ' will be 50 next birthday.
I was 13/14. Thanks for the memoriesssss. .....😙
Good age. You could have been my wife in 78 at age18, and we would probably still be together. Any woman other than the one I got stuck with, would have still been my wife! Hap Richards? I looked it up and no, never saw it.
I was 13 myself back in 1973.
it was good to be 6 in '73! Thank you for posting!
I was 6 yrs old, but I do remember this stuff lol
West world is a very underrated film
+Grandma goes to the movies! I concur !!! lol Thanks so much for watching... more coming - JB
*Did you know that this was the very first film to have computer generated graphics? The scene where the robot is trying to find the visitor to shoot him, and he sees everything in blocky pixels: that took them 6 months to render! Today it wouldn't take 6 microseconds!*
The film's title is one word ("Westworld"), not two.
Yul Brynner's robot gunfighter character was modeled after the role he played in "The Magnificent 7," even down to the costume he wore.
oh gosh..those after school specials lol
Thank you so very much for the memories. I'm 55 years old and have watched these in the presence of my 2 teenage girls. To my surprise,,they too sat and watched with their dad asking so many questions,,,,,which made for what will later become memories for them later in their lives. You brought a family together tonight and helped to create something extraordinary. Thank You again!!!!!!! KEEP 'EM COMING
Thank you Frank. If I had one wish it's to let the todays generation see how lucky we had it. All the best to you and yours :) - JB

@@Johnnyboy792 maybe she does similar videos ? does not like the competition. I'm loving these time capsules.
Excellent no-nonsense series. Thank you Johnny Boy for putting these programs together and sharing with us.
Hi Paul. Thanks for watching. I hope it brought back some good memories for you :) - JB
I graduated high school in '73. Started uni in the fall of '73. I worked, went out on weekends, and hung out with friends. My horse, was born in '73, and passed away in 2007. I bought him in August of '73, when he didn't need his mother any more.
The wonderful seventies what a time. I was nineteen in 1973 and I remember all most all of the things that were in this video. It made me laugh and it made me sad because I will never live that time again. I was in the spring of my life and it was wonderful.
I love these videos, bring back better times👍👏
+Paddy 013 More coming Paddy !!! Thanks - JB
Thanks Paddy ! More coming :)
I remember (reading right around this time) that it was the season of the "K's" on TV Kojac and Kolchak, the night stalker. But for a kid in the early 70's TV was great.
The original TV Movie Night Stalker was the highest rated TV movie that year. Loved the movies & the TV series :)
I think 1973 was the year that CBS broadcast the Made-For-TV movie "The Marcus-Nelson Murders," which was the inspiration for "Kojak." It was a fictionalized account of the notorious "Career Girl Murders" in New York City in 1963 (the names of the people involved were changed in the film), which caused a great scandal and controversy when a young man named George Whitmore supposedly "confessed" to the murders. However, it turned out that Whitmore was brutally coerced into confessing by overzealous police detectives (an all too common occurrence in those days). What's more, the case was tainted by racism; George Whitmore was a lower-class black youth accused of killing two young upper-class white women, one of whom was related to a well-known author and poet; the detectives who forced Whitmore to confess were bigots who called the accused racial slurs (one of them even said that he could tell when a black person is lying because "his stomach goes up and down").
Ironically, it was later discovered that Whitmore had an alibi for the time of the murders: he was in New Jersey working in a friend's bakery, and he and his friend were watching a live TV broadcast of Dr. Martin Luther King's "I Have A Dream" speech. Unfortunately, the police knew about this fact, and concealed it from the public!
In the end, it was proven that a different person, a WHITE MAN named Richard Robles, was the real killer. He was eventually convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.
The Whitmore case later became one of several cases cited by the United States Supreme Court in its controversial Miranda decision, which mandated that all criminal suspects had to be informed of their constitutional rights when they're arrested (Whitmore was unaware of his rights, which made him more vulnerable to the Third Degree tactics the police used on him to make him confess; it turned out he didn't even know what he was confessing to because the detectives neglected to tell him what he was accused of, even though this is required by the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution). It's also because of this case that the New York State Legislature voted to abolish Capital Punishment (except for cop-killers).
Even with the murder charges against him dropped, Whitmore was later convicted of a rape, another crime he vigorously denied, but he served time for it just the same.
@@michaelpalmieri7335 Good memory... I must have missed that one. Sounds like a good find :)
*Absolutely! Early 70's TV was among the best we ever made. What's sad is that they couldn't air **_any_** of it today because of all the faux "outrage" it would cause. Can you imagine the reaction todays college students would have to Blazing Saddles? There would be blood in the streets!*
School House Rock ROCKED!! Oh the sweet memories..
I couldn't agree more :)
Oh Johnny, thankyou you've just shown Rhoda ( I loved that american show, together with Soap, Taxi, Cheers ) around about the same time, I think. Was amazed when I watched Awakenings film and saw Rhoda's sister in it. And then of course Billy Crystal,out of Soap turned up in 'when Harry met Sally'. In fact I 'm gonna google Soap and Rhoda right now to watch some clips. Nostalgia is what makes us human I guess. Much love to you ,your mum and family! Kristine. XXX
1973, my first year in high school. Thanks for sharing! :)
+SoothingChime15 Thanks SoothingChime15 ! This was my of my favorite years !!! - JB
Awesome job dude! I was born in '71, so I always have a love for life in the 70s. You captured it as good as anyone could...if u could do 1978 and 79 that would be great! 1978 was an awesome year
+steve philmore 70's were awesome Steve ! I've been working on 1978 as we speak :)
Nice! Looking forward to it... I do time machines too, but only for family birthdays or for Philly memories... Keep doing them, and maybe I'll go behind you and do the 80s!
Thanks Steve.. I actually put these together when I redid the Family home movies in the 50's & 60's. I put this at the beginning of each year so the younger folks knew what was going on that year. It's put them back into a time machine :) Thanks again ! - JB
'78 was a boring year
@@shaylaknight1123 *'78 was a lot of things, but not boring! The end of disco (thank god), politically charged, the prime interest rate was 23% (I had a CD that paid 18% for 18 months!), and it was the year that kicked off what we now call the modern computer age.*
As a cinema fanatic, I saw most of those great films when they first debuted at the theater- and saw the rest when they came out on VHS. Thanks for your hard work, buddy!
Thank you Connie Girl :)
Super horse Secretariat! I was only 8 years old but I remember being glued to my tv! He is the only athlete to make the covers of Time, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated all in the same month! I have loved horses ever since I could remember and to be able to say that I watched this amazing stallion do what he did makes me proud. Horse racing, unfortunately, has become so corrupt and abusive to the horses, it was a better time back then, For all of us.
Man, I miss those marathon candy bars
You and me both E.G. !!!!
I was six years old...wow..time has flown...
Thank you Sandra :)
I was also born in 67 .
The Exorcist. That movie scared the crap out of me.
You and me both Johnny :)
Thank you for this...OMG..Westworld!!! Wow!
@@jamesmac357 yeah you got to dig through the crappy stuff but you can find some good movies in those bins absolutely
These are great series! I was 9 in '73. it was so long ago, yet I remember it like yesterday. My first full season as a Mets fan. I didn't miss a game on TV that year, and the World Series loss was a bitter disappointment.

3:47 Walking Tall was filmed close to where I live, as was the legend himself, in the next county. Buford Pusser's daughter Dwana and I are friends. She honors a deserving law enforcement officer each year at a local festival, and keeps her Daddy's memory alive in a small museum in the same town.
That was an awesome movie ! I still remember it... Thanks for the memory share :)
From one John of a certain age to another, your work truly belongs in a time capsule. Perhaps even a text book. Your ability to deftly balance the dichotomy of pop culturalism and pivotal touchstones transcends nostalgia. Watching this makes it seem like it was just yesterday. In fact it seems like Today. This was a time in our country when we were all trying to find a common appreciation of the differences in our fellow man and the greatest unifier was television. America was learning that not all things were black and white because the neighbor down the street just got a COLOR Console! We were a country that wanted to come together and 1970's television opened the windows on both sides of the fence. Thanks, Johnny..for indeed, "Those were the days."
Thank you for the wonderful compliment Dunkage ! Times are so fast, so divided now. Sometimes we all need a time out to remember. Thank you - JB
thank you so much , warm fuzzies all over
+Tc C My job is complete :)
I watched the ABC After School Special regularly and I saw the movie Charlotte's Webb that year and Jim Croce: Bad! Bad! Leroy Brown! is still a favorite of mine to this very day! Those were my pre-teen(tween) years!🐷🐖🐄🕷🐞🐣🐸🐍🐐🐏🐑🐂🐎🐮🦄🐕🐱🐵🐒🐶
Mine too... I forgot a number of ABC Specials :)
Big smile on my face at the end! Never saw movies like Papillon, Wesrworld, The Way We Were. Remember the TV commercials and most shows. My life was all farblundgered at the time, but that's a whole other story. Thanks for teen memories!!
Count your blessings that you didn't watch "The Exorcist" in that same year...
Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Thanks Jeff !!!
In 1976 when I was 14, my friends and I worked up the nerve to go and see it at the Trans Lux in Stamford CT. We were refused because we were not accomponied by anyone over 17 . Although we acted disappointed, a part of us was relieved, though we didn't admit it to each other... we sat the The Outlaw Josey Whales instead..... Thank God oldrocker74 :)
No prob Johnnyboy!! Merry Christmas to you and yours!!
... and the same to you my friend :)
Just so you know, I still watch these. They are really good !!
More coming my friend :)
I really enjoy them (seriously). Very glad there are more coming !!
These are without question some of my favorite videos on UA-cam. You do a TREMENDOUS job with these, a lot of thee snippets and clips I would never have seen if it weren't for your brilliant work. Thanks my man! Great job.
Thank you MP. I try to create true time machine to really take you back in the moment. Thank you for your kind words. Ill keep plugging away. All the best to you my friend :):):)
I cant think of anymore praise to give you for your videos! Excellent work as usual 👌👍✌🏻😎
Starting 1965 now :):):)
70's most put down generation. I'm proud to say I was a part of it. Anyone agree we got a bad rap?
The great year that I was born..73!!
A birthday video from me to you Buddy !!!
I was 6 and in the first grade . . And graduated high school in 1984 . . . Lucky me . . Hahaha 😂
ABC After School Specials! I've seen so many of those while growing up... still remember that hokey divorce one. :) Thanks for the memories.
I neglected to put in PSSST Hammermans after you !!!
Pat D The actor who played the father in "My Dad Lives In A Downtown Hotel" looked like John Ritter to me.
@Oggatha Christie What's so funny about that title?
@@michaelpalmieri7335 *You kind of had to be there.*
Oh my fuck at 52 Im old. ..thanks. Love memory lane
With his Hong Kong films in the U.S. and then his American film "Enter the Dragon," then his shocking death, Bruce Lee was the biggest star in the world that year.
I was 12 and remember all of this. 👍🏻
In the year '73 the world was 'blessed' with me. These videos make me see that era the way my parents saw it. Wish I could relive the '70s.
Thanks again for watching :)
Johnnyboy792 I had no idea that 'Westworld' existed until I watched Memories 1973. Rented it last night - that was one good film! Thanks.
Ahead of it's time. Yul Brynner wore the same outfit that he did in The Magnificent Seven :)
Thats EPIC ! " Hey you guys, Oh my nose ", thats still epic
I LOVED " The Carol Burnett Show", also.that's when Television was family oriented.
LOL.... So 70's right Donna :)
Johnnyboy792 , I was born in 70, so i don't remember awhole lot, but thats when Television was Awesome.
@@donnadreyer2580 :)
From "The Carol Burnett Show:"
Wife (Carol Burnett): When we were first married, you wanted meat loaf five times a week!
Husband (Harvey Korman): When we were first married, there were a lot of things I wanted five times a week!
For a time when television was, as you say, "family oriented," the dialogue in that scene was pretty racy!
I have been watching these great memory grabbers ! The Partridge Family and Love American Style were two of my favorite shows back then. I was 16 in 1973. Thanks for posting!
Thank you Walleyesam !!! I always felt that those Friday nights had the best lineup ever. All the best - JB
I would argue that 1973 was really the last year of the 1960’s. The 1970’s really began in earnest in about 1974.
That's awesome to think I was born really in the late 60s rather than the 70s. 😁
Had my daughter in '73 at the age of 16. Called her Dawn after Tony Orlando. Went to see the Exorcist the same year with 3 friends,but I'm very shortsighted and threw my glasses away the day I left school because they made me look like Harry Worth! Needless to say the Exorcist didn't frighten me at all! LOL! Eventually bought some new glasses at the age of 21, when I could no longer bluff my way in office work. Nowadays though,wearing glasses is cool, but back then you looked nerdy! I love The original Westworld, have it on DVD, same with the original Stepford Wives...way better than the remakes in my opinion. Love your postings! Xxx 🤣🤪
Your memories are better than mine Kristine :) Thanks so much :)
1973 had some good movies. The exorcist scared the shit out of me but American graffiti, the sting, magnum force and the way we were are good movies but the only movie That's missing is roger Moore's first outing as James bond in live and let die. Other than that I love this video
Remember that bath soap for kids like a whipped cream can?
I’m sooooo gonna ‘waste’ my day on these, today! Really fun, Johnny! Thanks!
I started kindergarten in the Fall of 73.
I was 20. Nicely put together compilation. From the mundane to the absurd. That was the 70's. Like the 60's, you had to be there.
Well said... I wondered if I should have put in some of those things, but then I thought... if you were there, you remembered :)
+ 1973 corvette stingray without chrome bumper and radial tires 😀

1:54 - If ONLY fruit pies were that size again!
They were in the early 70's Rob. What happened ? lol
Yeah, now they don't clog arteries quite so fast. Ah the good old days.
LOL Rob! First thing I thought when I saw that too!! :D
What happened to the sound on that commercial?
Well, I see you finally fixed the sound on that ad. It's about time.
I don't remember much personally but this is vaguely familiar:) These are the movies shows actors I remember and liked. Singers too.
:):):)
The actor in that G.E. shaving cream dispenser ad was probably Sebastian Cabot, who played Mr. French, the butler, on "Family Affair."

Zoomer30... and strip joint!
Oh the good days!!
I was 10 in 1973. In a farmhouse in the middle of nowhere. I was happy for a while 💝
I've said it before and I am sure I'll say it again, You make the best videos Johnnyboy792! They always bring me back to simpler times. Times that I wish were here again.
I was 9 and remember my mom and I excitedly watching Elvis in Hawaii
Celebrities was born in 1973:
Tori Spelling
Shannon Elizabeth ( American pie actress)
Kate Beckinsale
:)
I wasn't even BORN YET!!!!
The year I was born. I wish I could turn back time to live in the 70's again.
Thanks Michael !!!
I wish I could’ve been a kid in the 70s
I was born in 67 . . And was a kid growing up in the 70's . . And yeah it was great back then . . I became a teenager in the year 1980 and being a teenager in the early 80's was great also . . I was 22 years old in 1989 when the 80's ended . . So I really got to enjoy the 70's and the 80's . . . And I hate this new millennium mess . . . And Yes I would go back to the 70's and 80's and stay there .
1300, 1400, 1500 o'clock rock! 1600, 1700, 1800, o'clock rock! This song had different lyrics for the European radio audience.I It was also considerably longer.
Omg! I loved those Marathons!
lol Thanks Lori !!!
This was the year we moved from Jamaica,Queens to Long Island. I was 8, and full of energy, playing at the park everyday . Now I'm 51 and at work everyday. Life is grand.
A very good capsule of the year indeed! Started driving. First car was a 1968 Pontiac GTO fastback turbo-hydramatic 400 auto trans. Hottest car in town! Maybe in the State! To this day very rare and hard to find. The movies were great! Nothing but major hits back then! Wasn't Billy Jack also a huge hit back then? I think that's what started all that Bruce Lee Kung Fu craze across the country going on at the time.
I so wanted the GTO JUDGE :(

I was 9 years old and my granddad was an old boxer guy like to hang around the gym. I remember that fight but I don't remember phrase are going down that many times that's brutal. I don't even really need to say that was before the three knockdown rule or the standing eight count.
It was a shock to Howard Cosell and everyone else that Frazier went down. Sometimes you cant's think of anything else to say :)
Awesome compilation!!! Well done!! What a great treat!
I was born in 1973 but oddly enough most of these were also a huge part of my childhood. Luckily for me I had very cool parents. A surfer and a hippie. Thank you so much for the great walk through memory lane.
I hope you enjoyed your birthday video Kalliope !!!! lol. Thank you for kind comments. All the best to you - JB
@ Lisa Lindsey. Quite hard to be a young mum, isn't it! But better when you get older I guess. I now have a 28 year old grandson who I have a great relationship with. He's very happy and quite successful in life,with a beautiful partner and a little dog. Sometimes I wish that I had that focus in life when I was 15/16...but no matter I wouldn't change a thing..I think that you get older and wiser. Lots of Love to you and yours darlin'. 🥰
Lol I was 27 years away from being born. 😆 Don't know why I'm here but it's really nice to look back on!
Thanks Leah !!! It was a great time... wish I could describe it... but i'm hoping the videos put you in a time machine :) - Johnny

I was 6 in 1973 . . And was the first grade and I loved it . . I even remember my first grade teacher's name . . . I bought her dinner in 2018 a year and a half before she passed . . She was a wonderful teacher and a wonderful person . . And I'm glad I had the opportunity in 2018 to tell her what a wonderful teacher she was to me back in 1973 . . .

Charlottes web (Hannah barbera) was shown to me in kindergarten as well as Charlie Brown thanksgiving. We also read the book in 3rd grade. I’m only 19 and loved stuff like this! When you watched it all on Disc!
I was born in 1973 but, unfortunately, have no recollection of the 70s whatsoever. Politics, movies, music, fashion. The only exposure I had to that decade were (1) to movies on VHS rentals and (2) TV series re-runs (e.g. The Bionic Woman, BSG, Little House) during the 80s. It seems I became culturally aware only from 1980 onwards. I wonder if this is down to age and the same for others....I do look back now and cringe. Whatever people say about the 80s fashion, bell bottoms were terrible. My late father always complained he could not find jeans in store without. And disco music! It had to come to an end....
Love the 70s
Thanks Don !!!
That was a great year for me!
Thanks Mike !!!
Graduating high school! 73
That was such a great year :)
I was 10 and remember these lol thx for putting this together 👍
Oh , wow what great memories! My parents bought me a used color TV , so I could watch the TV series "The World At War". It was on every Sunday and. I used to hog the Zenith color TV set in the living room to watch it. I was very popular because I had a color TV set in my bedroom. I was very grateful because I watched a lot of these programs in my room. In 1973 , a lot of people in my neighborhood still had black abd white TV sets or one color TV set in the living room. Guess who had to watch the black and white TV sets ,lol!
LOL... oh you remote hog LOLOLOL :)
*and
I watched Charlotte's web in 1978 on broadcast tv I thought that's when it came out. Did not know it was a theatre release in 1973, I was 2 years old in 1973.
It was a great year !!!
I didn't see "Charlotte's Web" when it first premiered in 1973, but I wanted to see it because it interested me, but I was too shy to tell anyone because I was afraid they'd tease me for wanting to see a kids' movie at age 13. It made me want to read the book though, but everytime I saw it in a bookstore, I was again too shy and afraid to buy it, even though I had just started carrying my own money in my pocket (I think it was from an allowance). I didn't even have the guts to buy it when a paperback edition of it was part of a book sale at my Junior High School (Mark Twain Middle School in Yonkers, NY).
It was around 1975 when I finally got my courage up and I asked my mom to buy the book for me for Christmas. I read it and I loved it. I think it was about a year or two later that I finally saw the film on TV, and I loved it too, even though I noticed some parts of the story were different from what was in the book.
I'm 60 now (I live in Boca Raton, FL), but I still love the story. A couple of years ago, I borrowed a DVD of the film from the library. I also bought a DVD of the live action version, that was made in 2006. This one was a little more faithful to the book.
73? I was a 16 yr old sophmore in H.S. What else? Dark Side of the Moon, Tales From Topographic Oceans, Living in the Material World, Brothers and Sisters, Brain Salad Surgery, Laid Back, Red Rose Speedway, Carney, Ringo, Mind Games, Skynyrds first album and a Steely Dan album I cannot remember the name of. Oh yeah, Schools Out. All in all not a bad year!!!
Thanks S.T. !
Your welcome J.B. Just remembered a couple. Goats Head Soup & Mott by Mott The Hoople. Peace...
:)
Wow..I was 10 when these aired and I don't remember most of the shows but DO remember the ads!
From "All In The Family"
00:08-00:17
Mike: Archie, don't you see, the crisis is over!
Archie: What crisis?
Mike: Black people have arrived, they're here!
Archie (shouting): I AIN'T LETTING 'EM IN!
That segment was a part of a live TV special several months ago, where they recreated an episode of "All In The Family" (where Archie is doesn't want his black neighbors, the Jeffersons, to come over to his house) and the first episode of "The Jeffersons."
Both recreations were broadcast live (one of the actors in the "All In The Family" segment flubbed one of his lines), and used different actors instead of the original casts (some of whom had passed away).
Thanks for the info !!!
That was Parker Stevenson in that "Do you love almonds?" chocolate bar commercial. Long before he became a Hardy Boy and ended up guest starring on The Love Boat.
Good catch Lizzie !!!
And Kathleen Beller....She was Genco's girlfriend in Godfather II.
That she was Ambrose... before her Dynasty days :)
@@Wolfinger1935 I saw "Godfather, Part 2," and I don't remember Genco having a girlfriend.
I kearned some useful lessons from ABC After School Specials. ☮️
I really enjoyed them !
Great movies that year! I was 11 at the time and had to sneak into a few of them. I probably should have stayed home for the Exorcist. That movie scared the hell out of me for years. To this day, I can not watch it. I should have known it was going to be bad when people that went through the front door came in to the theatre with barf bags.
I was 11 myself... tried to see the re-release in 1976 with 2 of my buddy's.... went to a twin bill... The Exorcist on one side... Outlaw Josey Whales on the other... we opted for Clint... still didn't have the guts at 14 :)

Hi Karen ! The 73' video was my personal fave and one of my firsts. So far I've done 65 through 82 and I'm continuing. Ill be starting research on my 1964 video in a couple of weeks. Thanks again :):):) - JB
