When I reflect back to the decade of the 1970s, I realize that was a pretty monumental decade in my life. My high school class is about to celebrate our 40 year reunion in a few weeks so the 70s have been on my mind. I packed a lot of living into those 10 years! I would give ya the skinny on some far out parties we had, but the memory is a little foggy on those. Life was groovy! I married my high school sweetheart and we bought our first home in that decade. We also had our first daughter before the 1970s were finished. I went from being a little flower child and hanging with the Dudes and Chumps to being a wife and mother and it was all copacetic.
With the reunion coming soon, I started digging around for some cool stuff to do some skits with to get some chuckles from the rest of the geezers attending. So here's the scoop on one article I found by Mulberry who gives us the lowdown on some dudes that many liked to boogie to and watch on the boob tube. Her Teen Celebrities From The 70s will be Far Out for many of you, I think. Do me a solid and book on over and read about some of the heart throbs of 40 years ago. Mulberry really did an awesome job on it!
Hopefully those of you who are as old as me will recognize that I haven't totally flipped out and you have chuckled with some of the 70s slang that I've tossed around this review. For the younger crowd, I'll bet your parents can translate for you. Although, there are a lot of these terms that are still used today. Just goes to show ya that Cool is Cool no matter what decade it comes from. Right on!
Listen, I'll catch ya on the flip side....

This review is super groovy, Bev. The 70's for me covers high school and college, years of lots of changes and growth. I remember every one of mulberry's teen celebrities, my favorite being David Cassidy. She did a great job of pulling this list together and giving a little background on each. Definitely a trip down memory lane.
ReplyDeleteWow, thanks for the review! I just happened to catch this on Twitter when ronpass tweeted it.
ReplyDeleteThat was such a fun look at 70s teen celebrities from Mulberry, and I did my best to keep up with your review too :) Sounds like the 70s were a special time for you and that Mulberry brought back some of those good memories. Really enjoyed seeing how some of these actors and singers looked in their youth.
ReplyDeleteI can dig it, baby! I am sure it is dynomite. I will book it on over there now to check it out and I will check you later :)
ReplyDeleteLOL Great review, Bev! I kept up with you because I was there, baby. The slang terms from the 70s that I remember the most, and are not used today, are "neat" and "turkey." Turkey is the one that makes me laugh when I think about it. Back then, there was a period of time when you were called a turkey if you were uncool or did anything uncool. Oh, and the lens! Wow! That was a great trip down memory lane. David Cassidy, now he was something else. ...Wonderful lens, Mulberry!
ReplyDeleteOh, that was so much fun! I remember all those 70s teen celebrities as well. Great review, Bev!
