Thank you for that information! I was thinking the singing was very nice. It reminded me a bit of the Hollies or some other 60s band. If there’s any website with information on the session singers I’d love to read about them!

I remember this commercial I was 11 years old then. Pepsi then tastes better than it does now! All the sodas do since they quit using real sugar and using corn syrup now.
@gladysguseck88384 жыл бұрын
And water's even better, and better for us, with neither sugar or corn syrup in it.

Pepsi is now selling “Real Sugar” versions in 12-packs of 12-ounce cans and six-packs of 7.5-ounce cans. The shade of blue on the cans is slightly darker than the “regular” Pepsi sweetened with corn syrup, the “Pepsi Cola” wordmark under the logo is in script font rather than block letters, and right under that it says “Made With Real Sugar.” Those go fast in the store, so when you see them, buy a couple of packs.

you're welcome! You get triggered real easy don't you? Feel free to find a 16mm negative, restore to HD electronic quality too while your at it. Then don't put a water mark on it and you dream will come true. I'm only guessing what's preventing you from doing that is, money, time, aptitude and your degree of laziness. Look like from your profile picture, that you enjoy laying around the house naked on your ass.....rather than working on a project like this....saving a Pepsi commercial from a water mark.

Now, don't get mad. I know black people were poorer 53 years ago, but we couldn't afford the occasional soda???? I'm sure the pepsi and advertising executives meant to, it just never occurred to em. The real question is .... why?
@OsbornTramain Жыл бұрын
Don't get mad, but the Black minority in 1968 was about 10%. This commercial by my count had 4 Black People and 25 white people (some shown several times repeatedly). That would be representative of the population in this time period. The white population demographic has been reduced significantly in the USA vs other group with Asians and Hispanic Growing extremely fast. There are no Hispanics or Asians in this commercial which again would be reflective of the percentage in 1968
