    As one of the dancers in this video, I love reading all the comments. Life was simple back then. Hang out with friends, dance on the weekends. It was pure and it was fun. Love seeing how this song takes everybody back to a simpler time.

    So many people will never know what it was like in Myrtle Beach South Carolina back in the 60's-80's. A time for innocence and just plain fun. No matter where you go in this world, they're no other beaches like Myrtle beach was during that time period. None in California, Florida or New Jersey. It has changed now. The Famous Pavilion is gone for some reason we don't know. Drugs have taking over parts of Ocean Blvd. Prostitutes all over the place, black bike week out of control with their vulgar dressing and actions in front of little children. This song that Alabama plays here is what it was like back then. It will never be the same again. I am one of the fortunate to have experienced this error.

    Child of the 60's & 70's. Grew up going to Myrtle every summer, missing the Sun Fun festival would have been the worst thing ever! Lol. Being from SC, the saying was...if you hadn't been to Myrtle or Folly during the summer, you hadn't been anywhere. That's why I love this song. We walked everywhere and didn't realize we were having the time of our lives. Ah nostalgia...I can still remember the smells of Hawaiian Tropic and ocean. And we danced our feet off, even us kids. Everytime I hear this song I still shag a few steps and smile. Thank you Alabama for capturing my youth 😊

      I was never in Myrtle Beach but the same is true for most all the great places I grew up with as well! I know life goes on but wish more could be saved. I do when I can however minor.

      Kind of why I come to watch this video. I can get a glimpse of when it was a fun, family vacation place. My dad grew up in SC, so we spent a lot of time in MB in the 70s and 80s. Smaller motels that didn't block out the sunlight and mom and pop places that were fun to go in.

      Nothing is the same as when we grew up! Younger generation took over! I have to listen to the oldies! I am so glad I grew up when I did! Best music! Best of times until Viet Nam interrupted us! There was music then, but memories of that time, haunt me!

    I am 70 years old and not only does this tune just slow everything down a relaxing notch but the words paint such great memories of Myrtle Beach from my high school and college years when all it took was “let’s go to the beach this weekend” to get a group up for the 3 hour drive….and there we were cruising the boulevard. This is my favorite songs of all time because of the way it captures that slice of my life. Many thanks for the memories

    I was born in 1990 and when I was young, but old enough to remember how it was those were the best times. Myrtle Beach will never be the same and its a shame that the pavilion was closed down, it was a historical landmark and well appreciated and fun place for family. Im glad to say that I was there the last day it was open. I miss the old M.B. so many great times.

      I don't know why they close and tear down the places that make the beach so much fun. All they do is put up high rise condos and destroy the soul and history of Myrtle Beach, Panana City, Daytona
      The list goes on. The places of our good times and memories. I guess it's called progress but the steal the heart and soul of so many places. My grandkids will never experience dancing, shagging on the boulevard. What a horrible injustice progresd has done to these generations. Love love Alabama song. The were one of the greatest bands. I'm 73 and I miss cruising , the Pavilions , where young people playes the juke box, danced, laughed and met people from all over. No guns just fun.

    The memories of MB. I grew up in the 60's, 70's when the beach was the place to be. Met so many girls there every summer. Even got engaged to one. But it did not work out. If only we could turn back the hands of time. This would be my place to be again. Such memories. I even had a Corvette in 71 to cruise the Blvd. Man o man, what times. MB is done now. Never be the same again. So sad.

    Mark Herndon didn’t play the drums on the recording. He was primarily a live drummer. He did record the drums on their biggest hit Mountain Music but session drummers did record most of the songs.

      The pavilion was Myrtle Beach's heart, when the tore it down they effectively Murdered Myrtle Beach. I guess the new nickname of Murder Beach is fitting.

    When Rivers Ave in North Charleston wasn't happening on a summer cruise, Friday or Saturday night, we'd book up to Myrtle to cruise the boulevard which was always happening. Summerville, where I'm from and Myrtle Beach just aren't the same. '70s and early '80s Myrtle were the best. ✌️

    l was born and raised in MB and worked around the corner from the Bowery one summer. I remember them well as Wild Country and used to get drunk between the Bowery and Duffy's next door almost everyday. I was 18 years old the summer I worked at Ocean Front and I'm 60 now. I knew all those boys back in those days.

      Robert Brown Wow...what memories of MB back then! I just went down for 4 days in Sept...friends who live there now tell me it’s not as safe a place to be anymore. I was so saddened to hear that! Went down right after Hurricane Florence. I recalled that I had been down there the year this song came out & a bunch of us were learning a dance that was made up to go with the song so we could go dancing! It looks so built up & totally different than it used to, that I barely had recognized it. I love Alabama’s music. Neat you knew them. Hope that was a great summer for you!

      I worked at WYAK from 1977 to 1982. Of course Jeff worked on Sunday mornings at YAK. Spent many a nite at the Bowery. Some of the best times of my life during this time and knowing these guys. We always knew they would make it big but we never knew this big!
