    Thank you Mackenzie for these clips...they are wonderful. We took a couple trips to England (including London) in 1967 and 1968 while my father was in the US Air Force stationed on Crete for 2 years (driving a Chevy Malibu that still had the Texas license plates on it that we had brought over)...I was 11 and 12 years old and have digitized the precious 8mm film he shot at the time...and the Kodachrome slides...almost look like they were shot yesterday. If I had been just a little bit older, I would have been more appreciative of how beautiful the girls were at the time.
    p.s. - unlike many others here, I like the soundtrack you included...it helps keep the segments lively and moving!

      The sixties were a sweeter time than we inhabit now. I've seen stories of people on Bold street in Liverpool suddenly finding themselves in 1967. So the only thing to do in find the vortex opening, have plenty of "vintage money" on hand, and catch the train into London.

    Firstly I must say that this vid is wonderful - thankyou. I was 17/18 when this was filmed & I had been working in St Mary Axe 2 years prior for less than 4GBP per week! Out of which I was paying train fares & money to my Mum. However I did have a lovely Mateus Rose girlfriend & we tried to dress in the lastest gear - usually from C&A. Historically 'times' are always tough for those that do not 'have enough' to meet their desires. I never have been wealthy but have always looked on the bright side with true Hope in the Lord. Please don't be nasty. We can't go back but we can look forward In Faith

    Thank you so much for posting, this is really interesting and lovely to watch! As someone born in '98, it's really weird (but also kinda nice) to feel so nostalgic for a time so long before I was even born! I don't really think the music suits the footage though, just a personal preference...

    • @mackenzierough
      @mackenzierough  7 років тому

      Hi Erin, I'm glad that you enjoyed my movie, music is always a problem with UA-cam as I cannot use copyright tracks as my videos are moneytised with ads so I have to find a free Royalty free track and the choice is very limited.

      You feel that way because so much of today's "Modern World" was born then. Everything was original and new for the very first time, no "remakes" of anything. The fashions, furniture, and sports car designs still look new.

      I myself have no problem with a woman who wears traditional headdress/garb. I do have a slight problem with a woman who ruins a pretty face and a lovely body with junk. But then again it's her money and her property. She can ruin all that if she's foolish enough to do so.
