not only that look at the MUSIC we got to listen to! I mean today's stuff is pure garbage. My Great Granddaughter was recently over here and I happened to be playing Jennifer Rush's "The Power of Love" & she says what the hell WHO is that? She then noticed all these yesteryear songs on my desktop and started listening to them she was totally blown away didn't even know they existed. 17yo and she was in tears at times. yeah. so I tell her welcome to the 60's, 70's, 80's.

I can fall asleep listening to this music. The guys who does this music is pretty famous I can’t recall his name at this moment but it’s all computer generated. He’s a generous man who allows people to use his materials. Have a nice day.

@@arthurcappiello3806 I Shazam it - tunes came up Kevin McLeod intractable and the other I think it's called nice and easy -on autionautix

@@arthurcappiello3806 - the music is in the description

@@Ford_Raptor_R_720hp_V8 thanks someone had mentioned that some time back I’m not to savvy when it comes to things like that. Thanks and enjoy our holiday weekend.

yeah hear you. born in 42 here. place has gone totally to shit. the more generations that pass the STUPIDER we become. Males nowadays don't even know how to change a spare tire (IF they even have one to change).

Robert, no doubt you are a brother from another mother right down to "Model Airplanes" gawd I miss those days

That' comment seemed a little harsh, I was born in the early 1950's also but wouldn't call young people stupid..I think it would take a lot to grow up and maneuver thru these modern times...I have nostalgia for the past but don't know if I'd call it the "good old days"..just think our problems were simpler then...

@@debbiebasche7760 So I assume you consider this current dystopian society America has currently an improvement over the 1950's? BTW we are NOT talking Nostalgia it's reality as the differences in how a Civil society was as compared to todays Mess, "simpler problems" I think not, the current problems were self inflicted...... Born 1948 traveled the world for an airline and have watched the decline in America as viewed from other nations perspective not only our own.....

What’s sad is that’s all you saw. Death, seriously.

The streets were not flooded with meth & Heroin like today... makes a big difference.

Hardly anything was worse except for advances in surgery and industrial safety.

@@dlee3710 Yeah, as long as you were white!

@@hilltopgypsy - yes, unfortunately, this is an honest statement. Also, it would be good to have more minorities in the photos on the channel.

@@philipatoz - Why don't you make a channel. And put anything you want on it. I appreciate all of the pics this channel shows. I wasn't even thinking about the people's races.

Yes! the red car in front of the little cabin in the snow....how much more "Americana" can you get?

It is truly sad and makes you angry

I agree. Until my mom set me straight, when she told me that in 1962 the reason why all the parents came to my Birthday Pool Party at Howard Johnson’s was because that was in the extreme height of the Cuban missile crisis, and they were there to hightail it home to their bomb shelters and basements if the USA got nuked by Cuba/Russia.

@@chrisodt6607 Better to be stressed out about the possibility of Russians destroying your country than to actually have other people doing just that but in a different way.

This is how I choose to remember it, simpler

How can you say that??? People was being murder and children were being molested. People of color were being lynched and intimidated.

Not if we Americans continue to elect the leaders that we do. We’re doomed.

Please

I was born in 1946. Yes, it was a much better time.

@@navret1707 Much more wholesome!

Yeah, if you weren't black and living in the south.

The saddest thing about these photos is that most of the people in them are dead. Their hopes and dreams, their cares and worries all mean nothing now. The passing of time is so sad.

@@davidhunt6463 No, not everyone is dead. My mom was born in 1957, she's still alive.

I was born in 45 and experienced all the beautiful things in life back then. People were more honest and trustworthy and and a man could support a family, house payment, and car payment on a 40 hour a week job and live a comfortable life. Now you have to choose between buying food or gas for your car. I never thought I'd ever see our country in this sad a shape. Videos like this take me back to those times and soothe my soul and the music is a perfect match.

@@johnbarnes1268 I was born in 51.. my dad along with many of his peers went off to work every morning while my mom and many other women kept the house and took care of the children. We took our meals at the same time every day prepared with care by those women. Neighbors talked over fences, respecting each other and those in authority when they were needed. Also my mom made the majority of what we wore. Things have changed drastically.. we shouldn't be surprised cuz Scripture has warned us. If I may say, the Lord causes his sun to shine on the evil and good, sending rain on the just and unjust. As He sits on His throne in heaven, His kingdom rules over all. (From Psalms and Matthew) I agree, those were brighter days, perhaps cuz we as children lived simpler, playing, and learning taught life lessons. May His love and peace and mercy and grace be known. Blessings.

I agree 100%

Did you ever consider that maybe the info you're requesting just isn't available? @ 13:45 I do recognize the Mapes Casino in Reno NV.

It can be fun to guess or research the locations on Google. 14:09 is Harolds Club, also Reno, NV; 14:33-15:36 is apparently SF; 16:50 Berthoud pass, CO. Google Lens tells me 18:44 is Monumento a la Revolución, Mexico City. 😯

@@stevieray6216 Cool! Thanks for the information.

@@stevieray6216 - Thanks for sharing.😊👍

Me too! 💖👍

I can assure you that there are many places like America. Some are even better.

Unless it’s Australia.

And no seat belts.

When touring a historic home; some people seem to focus their attention on the cesspool. Kindly wipe your mouth.

yep females treated like 2nd class.. even worse for blacks. notice that there was not ONE black in this entire set?

Like it or not, the cesspool is included.

right. I still drive a stick and in fact have never owned an auto tranny and I'm 79yo. if properly driven sticks just don't give problems. The problem though is nowadays nobody knows how to drive much of anything.

that's awesome you recognized the photo!

Wow! Thank you for the info. 😊👍

Thank you!👍

I think it's due to the fact that these images were taken on Kodachrome slide film. It was known for it's vivid colors. Kodak claimed Kodachrome slides would last "a lifetime" without fading out. Now we see that it's true! The images outlasted most of these people depicted.

Yes Kodachrome transparencies were well saturated. I loved that about Kodachrome. I guess not everyone else did or does. We used to shoot Kodachrome 64 at 50 (ASA) for even more saturation! Of course in the 1950s Kodachrome was pretty slow film, ASA 10 I think. You really needed a bright sunny day for best results, but my how nice those old slides look. And one great thing is the slides didn’t “wash out” over time like Anscochrome.

It's called Intractable by Kevin Mac Leod.

@@jackiebayliss thank you so much!

No. Daddy is taking the photo.

@@drkskyes : By "the end" I mean, the end of post war modern America as we knew it. Look at it now.

*It's in the Description*

@@Ford_Raptor_R_720hp_V8 Thank you, guess I should have read the description ...lol.

Almost all of them. I want to go back

@@jorgecisneros7873 Thank you. Now I can read about this unusual structure. (A Cisneros family had a weekend/summer cabin next to my family's home.)

Yes - Brighton!
