As an Englishman, that came to Glasgow in the early 70’s, I very much enjoyed seeing these photographs. Suffice it to say I have seen many changes over the years, many of them good. Glasgow folk however remain the same, as ever the salt of the earth.

What a beautiful city. My beautiful Glasgow. Long may you flourish

Am a Gorbals man and we were all in the same boat back then, naebody had anything, the 'Pawn' was part of life, but we had a 'community-Spirit like I've never witnessed since. If anybody was sick/ill we passed 'roon the sheet, if my Maw went intae hospital for another wean, we were all parcelled oot tae different neighbors ...!! We all stuck thegither, and helped each other oot!! Sad tae say, I don't see that nowadays . . .!! It was a different time - a different mindset!! xxx

OMG homesick so much tonight. Just found this video and because I haven't been back to Glasgow for over 22 years this tears my heart apart. Thank you so much for this video

This is great. I was a young midwife in the 60's in Glasgow and delivered many a wean at home. The pictures have resurrected many old fond memories. Thank you.

Fantastic pictures and great music, I'm a calton boy, played for possil ymca in 81 great team we won the lot 🍀

Great pics Folks just great, I stayed with an aunt in Carlton St before she died, That would be around mid 50's. Aunty Bridie' a great person. I never knew where the rest of her folks Went to. I went to Quariers homes till I was about 16.

Brings back so many memories. 👌

What a lovely & emotional video! Both songs are very fitting for it. Although I wasnt born until 1991 , as a Glasweigan all photos give me chills & tears to my eyes. I love Glasgow x

Great to see some places I had totally forgotten about, and the memories these images bring back. Many many thanks for your efforts...and the music was fab too.

It’s great to see Glasgow as it was.... I was brought up in Turnlaw Street, Gorbals. Great memories. Thank You for a great video

A great production and perfect choice of music. I loved it.

Images such as these certainly do bring back memories ...... very many thanks for posting these pictures

I worked in and around Glasgow for a couple of years and fell in love with the city and the people, at night when the traffic had eased I’d go out for an hour or so to get my bearings and at weekends go walking around the city absolutely loved it and even brought my family for holidays in Glasgow, my wife who had visited Edinburgh said at the time nothing could match Edinburgh wait until you visit Glasgow I told her and yes she now loves Glasgow, we went to Edinburgh for a day trip when on holiday and she couldn’t wait to get back to glasgow, she even says we should sell up here in Ireland and live in Glasgow, beautiful city beautiful people

I was born in Glagsow 1954. Stophill Hospital and lived on Cowlairs Road. Thanks for putting this up. Loved seeing some places I recall as wee boy. Can't believe I actually lived in those times and conditions. It's amazing to see this.

Very interesting pictures. The city has improved a lot since then but you see in these pictures some marvellous buildings that were indiscriminately demolished in the 1960s and 70s and which would look great now stone-cleaned and integrated into the 21st Century city.

Born in the Gorbals in 1955 great memories, still a Sousider.

I LOVE MY HOMETOWN GLASGOW !!!!!!!

Fantastic memories...brought up in the Cowcaddens and was great to see pic of Phoenix Park and Oakbank Hospital

St Enoch Station was a magnificent area and travel hub. To see it now is rather sad.

Love Glasgow, the old pictures are great!

I started watching these videos of old Glasgow a few days ago and I think I've seen most of them by now. This is one of the best. Old people always look backwards, I suppose, but I miss the old place and time like hell. Thanks for the moment.

These pics bring back so many memories thanks

Thank you for a lovely compilation. Another Englishman viewer, I worked in Trongate C&A Modes 1972-73 when I joined that firm. I was the only recruit in the UK who chose Glasgow, and I never regretted that decision. Wonderful happy memories of the City outside work that is! The manager was a complete psycho, but not a Glaswegian.

This is amazing..my grandfather was Rev. John Cameron Peddie who faith healed in the Gorbals. His church was called the Hutchesontown Parish Church that has been torn down. He worked with the gangs in the gorbals.

Back in the era when Glasgow was full of magical Characters.. Great posting..

This broke my heart my mum born in Maryhill she worked in the Enoch hotel loved seeing Maryhill road again haven't been to Glasgow in 24 years but going to to go to scatter my mums and sister's ashes miss u both I used to love showing my mum all the old Maryhill videos.

Beautifully put together ❤️ thank you, 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💥👍😍

What a great video, brings back lots of memories of Glasgow. Now living in New Zealand, but still miss Scotland.

Lovely video,thank you very much. I grew up going to the Apollo in the early 70's and am still doing gigs these days. When outside the pub having a smoke,I often look across to where the old place once stood, and thinking of all the nights in there. The Barras atmosphere comes close,but there was only one Apollo. x

I loved this video seeing everything from the past it makes me feel old now as I’ve lived through most of the dates stamped Seeing the hospital were I was born oakbank and cowcaddens ,Charing x sauchiehall street , my heart aches as I would love to be transported back to the 70s

Wow fantastic collection well done, love the north glasgow pics, all in my era, thanks.

Thanks for posting this. A great place at a great time. Times were tougher but there was not a constant air of menace. People did not live in fear. They lived in optimism. Some of the scnes from the film "Once Upon a Time in America" remind me of the old tenments, buildings and people of Glasgow.

that's why i love Glasgow and proud to be from Glasgow

Loved these photographs and loved the music!

We used to live in Hopetoun Place in Townhead, just opposite Allan Glen's school, until 1967 when the whole street was demolished and Strathclyde University built right over the top of it!

Thank you, I am searching generations of family addresses and many streets have been razed. This was very moving.

Brilliant to see the old places👍.

Glasgow was the only city that voluntarily gutted itself and destroyed decades of history. Yes it needed the slums cleared but instead of rebuilding the tenements with modern materials they moved entire populations to the middle of nowhere into huge estates. The splitting of the city with a motorway beggars belief despite how convenient it is. Can you imagine destroying the center of Edinburgh to put a motorway in?

Loved that first song too.

Whoa! Brings all back to me - that's Glasgow High School on ELm Bank ROad was there 1966-70

was born at home at 85 ledaig street haghill back in 1956 went to haghill school then to smithnycroft sec school then left glasgow to come to southport back in 1983 feel nostalgic but could never go back and live there, if anyone would like to join a wee forum, it's called( glesga folks ) and thur's great and interesting things oan it aboot glesga and oor memories living ther, so hope tae see yee's ther folks...

Am 21 and this is interesting was born in glasgow all my life born in blackhill queensley street my gran lives there still and I'm going to show her this slideshow to see if she remembers

Thanks brought back memories of city centre - sadly doesn't seem to be many photos taken by anyone of my neck of the wood, Crosshill/Queens Park but still great to see places I did know including the only shoe shop in Glasgow that sold shoes to fit my size 7 female feet, others only went size 6 - Saxones.

A fabulous collection, including many from times when i lived and worked in the city.

Oh boy that brought back loads of memories for me thank you

Was born in the house, red sandstone building at 1268 Springburn Rd in Sept 1953. Emigrated to Canada in 1963, a few years later the beautiful row of red sandstone closes were torn down. I have always wondered why? I love coming back to Glasgow. Thank-you for doing this. Does anyone know who the photo of the mum pushing the pram with kids at 6:05 was taken by and when?

Amazing pictures xxthankyou

Glasgow, Centre of the Universe. Love the city, love the people.

Thanks for sharing 👍one of my favourite songs and great photos

love this, some great pictures.

Fantastic - Many thanks

wow....Time Travel IS possible! amazing video

Some great views of old Glasgow. Well done! I lived in the old Gorbals until December '63, they started demolishing our area the following year (bastards. At least they waited until we left before they flattened it...). I was 6y.o when we moved, but I could still draw a map to a square mile around where we lived! Nice view of Celtic Park, incidentally. But where's IBROX??

lots of memories excellent .

Thanks ,enjoyed the photos.

great video enjoyed some great old photos

coia's cafe duke street....... thanks for posting

I remember my granda walking me up millerston st from the gallowgate to coias cafe and buying me an Oyster ice cream. I can still taste it

You can tell someone's age by whether they still refer to the junction of Argyle St. and Union St. as Boot's Corner!

great & lovely video ....thank you lovemygirl

Love them Thankyou

So much soul in Glasgow. I'm from Edinburgh and it is historical city but didn't have the wild humour and edge as Glasgow did or still has. I miss these places now being in pandemic exile.

Cracking pictures, bring back a lot of memories.

I still live in glasgow but these days it just doesn't have that glasgow feel anymore like it once had.

good video, well done. particularly liked the photos of the people,typical Glaswegians.

Brilliant !! Loved it !!!

Nice pictures, I was hoping for more from when the trams were still running, which is what I remember fondly.

I’m from Manchester but I really enjoyed the photos. Lovely music too.

love it old city

super song and image composition

Great stuff👍

I've been researching rottenrow maternity hospital as my mother was born there. So i'm grateful for any pictures/videos especially from the year of 1938 onwards.

1:24 In the mid-1970s when I was about 6 years old, I saw a kid, nicknamed "Monkey", run out of that Woolworths, dropping a new calculator as he went. The Manager chasing him, but the kid got away. lol, ah the memories that stay with you.

Im a Banki i live in England but Scotland will always be home loved watching this...

3:51 It broke my mind for a second to see those bins in such an old photograph. Never realised they were so vintage, but I guess if it ain't broke!

Loved staying in Glasgow moved when I got married miss it still meet up with my friend.

Very interesting video

Great video!! well done!! Glasgow is such a fabulous city :O)

Glasgow in these images was well before my time, but I do find it quite depressing that my generation has missed out on the appreciation of some of Glasgow’s finest architecture - the demolition of St Enoch station was criminal! I was born and bred in Pollokshields in the 90’s and thankfully 98% of the area remains intact, although it’s shameful that many areas like Springburn, Gorbals, Anderston, etc had the hearts of those communities ripped out, all because of poor planning within the Comprehensive Developement Area (CDA) scheme

memories are made of this loved it

I love how you added celtic park well done new sub btw I'm a BIG celtic fan!

Absolutely brilliant.

Old now, having lived in Canada for 40 + years. Got a little choked up, I must admit.

Nostalgic enjoyment ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

very cool vid! thanks

i was always happy being the way i brought up skint happy days good pictures

thank you for this

lots of memories of my hometown

How poor we were, but we couldn't be any happier..

Very enjoyable 😀

born in the Townhead, rottenrow maternity Hospital, stayed in Royson, moved to Garthamlock, have stayed in Dennistoun and Bishopbriggs, im a proud Glasweigan now living in Ayr for the past 25 years!!!

I must be getting auld, keep watching these kind of videos

Always homesick for Scotland, especially so after watching this. Best place in the world and the best people. Scotland is my home. Xxx

My Uncle was born in a shoe box and kept warm on an open oven door oven on warm. He grew to about 200 lbs but at birth he was 2 lbs. Amazingly enough and it was 1932

6.06 Is Camperdown Street with Oakbank primary school on the right, the polis station was across the street. I went there from 1958 till 1964. At 7.03 is Rockville school, my Mother went there just prior to the second world war. Thanks for the memories right enough.

tyvm,took me way back to when i was innocent and happy x

l lived in the moss house in Possil for the first year of my life.

I’m Glasgow born and bred living in the North of Glasgow. This video is great it also makes me sad though to see that Glasgow was mostly a stunning city the architecture, the city centre. All the old shops. The old St Enoch square is beautiful and the Boots store at the four corners! You wouldn’t recognise it now, it’s full of drug addicts, drug dealers the city is a toilet now. Totally and utterly ruined. It’s a shame as it was once a great city long gone now 😞.

Brilliant.
