I don´t know why, but if i had a time machine, i would visit Vegas in the 70´s.

No baby strollers. Just adult's 👍

my 1st trip to vegas was in 1969 to see elvis, his dinner show was 15.00 per person,the highest in town, frank sinarta dinner show was 10.00 person, thats right a steak baked patotoe and a salad plus the show,

The music is simply appropriate!

Man I love vintage videos. It doesn’t matter where it was filmed.

So many memories, I turn 21 1972, went to Vegas 3 times a year during the '70s. Stayed at the Westward HO. motel, largest motel in the world at the time. $12.00 a night rooms, 25 cent hot dogs..Next door was the Stardust hotel and just inside the door was their lounge shows, couple dollars for a drink, and got to see 3 acts over a two hour period. $1.99 buffet, wow life so much fun in those days.

First time in Vegas was 1976! Loved the gambling back then. Won buckets of silver dollars like $800!! Played and won slots lots of times. Loved driving downtown too. Gambling downtown was so much better. Buffets and drinks so cheap back then. No kids around either. I was single and in my twenties living in Los Angeles and could drive there in 4.5 hours. Loved it and miss the 70’s sooo much!

I love old video like this, I miss the 70’s.

The cars were the stars of this video. I had a few of them.

Wow-I lived there from 1978-1980 (sophomore and junior year at high school). It was awesome. Really brings back memories. Notice how thin every one was back then?! What have they done to our food supply since that time?!

Moved to Vegas in 1973. Thanks for the Memories.

This is LasVegas at it's epitome of PERFECTION!

Truly a step back in time....moved to Vegas in 1967... I was 4... I still love this town and always will

I really do miss the old vegas.

Love the old neon signage it was better when the mob ran it it had character now it's a corporate dump hole-now

Wow!!! Back before fast food took over America! No obesity seen here, exposed body piercings, tattoos, dyed hair, etc. Great video!! Happy 2019!!!

Las Vegas native here-thank you this brings back a lot of memories. Times have changed-

Thanks for posting this! I grew up in LV throughout the 1970s, and it was so cool back then. It was glamorous on the strip at night in the hotels and casinos. Beautiful women and men were dressed in evening wear and had an air of sophistication to them (as seen through my childhood eyes anyway). The performers in the strip and downtown were old school entertainment legends still (Ann Margret, Joan Rivers, Sinatra, Dean Martin, Liberace, Ginger Rogers, etc)., and most of the fabulous original hotels were around. When I was in my 20s, I did go see Tom Jones perform at the MGM Grand, which was probably the most Vegas-y thing one can do...lol. The city since the late 80s is now just full of stupid themed hotels, 15.00 cocktails and a-hole college guys and their thot girlfriends. It’s so sad!

0:30 The lady has 70s style panty lines and nobody cared about them yet. Those were the days.🤩😎

I was in my teens, and I miss them! The 70's ROCKED!!!!!!! :)

There were a lot of cool things about Las Vegas in the 60s/70s. When you grow up here though, you're boxed in

the old Las Vegas looked pretty cool an cool trip back in time.

Las Vegas was fun back then! We would travel from Los Angeles in my Dads Van, Park in back of Silver Slipper Casino and sleep overnight in his van. I miss those days - 1977.

I remember my first trip to vegas, was in 1979, I love it.

Went to the neon graveyard last year. Made me so happy to see some originals, they've saved so many gems from this time period.

Elvis played many shows from 1969 to 1976....best times!!

Love the cars, fashion, atmosphere... I was born in a wrong time

Man I was enjoying this 70's music. Time Travel. Most the people in this video are long since gone. Wow.

Perfect michael Miller special thanks

1:14 I was not expecting that 😳

the vegas of my youth .thanks for the flashback in time .so many wonderful memories of cruising the strip and Fremont street.on summer nights

The best days/decade to live in Las Vegas. Compared to now it was safe and cheap. I miss it so much and the majority of people that were living there then will agree. It was a wonderful time to be there....Now its just an expensive mall....With lots and lots of crime

This has to be around 77 because of the style of Caprice I saw

At 2:36--the Aladdin sign is visible--the sign says America and Poco are appearing Wednesday--July 27th. That means this Vegas video has to be from 1977....

Showed this to my kids. They couldn’t believe that nobody was on a cell phone and how everyone looked healthy - no fat slobs.

I wish I can go back in time

I first visited Vegas in 1981 with my parents I still remember all the mom and pop hotels that came right before you hit the strip. One in particular with a see through swimming pool you could see from the street. I know the MGM Grand and Hard Rock stand where those cheesy mom and pop hotels used to be. We used to stay at The Ali Baba hotel, my parents loved it. Thank you for this video! Memories!

Omg I lived in Vegas in the 70s and that was just like having to go down town, the traffic and tourists and I do remember the deep throat hearse....lots of memories thx.....♡

That is amazing footage! Brings me back to whenni was a kid...

It looked cleaner, safer and wholesome..

Beautiful piece of historic film. Music score and all, this was really nice to see!

man what a fantasic video.

I moved to Las Vegas to attend UNLV on the 2nd of July, 1976. Left for good some 8 years later, in 1984. So I consider that I spent the best years there that the city has ever seen. I wouldn't be caught dead there now, obviously.

Wow. No mega resorts and lots of flesh appeal. Had to be one of the best times to be in Vegas. Thanks for the show.

i liked the Dog in the car

The days of 10/7/5 Double Bonus Video Poker with a 100.17% payout when played correctly. Good old days.

oh my I had that same model motorcycle without the luggage rack .1975 Honda XL 125

OMG that music is simply awesome!!

I just sent this video to my 2-year younger sister. Our parents took us there from 1970 to about 76. We would play at circus circus all day long. Then go sleep in the RV parked out in the parking lot well the parents went went out to see the shows like Tom Jones and such. Great times growing up

WOW GREAT VIDEO LOVE THE MUSIC AND LOVE THOSE WONDERFUL TIMES.

I MISS THE OLD VEGAS SO MUCH

Tom Jones peak years at Ceasars.

This was the Vegas ($) of Dan Tanna and Harlan Two Leaf. There's a great wealth of high-quality footage like this in damn near every episode of VEGA$. (all filmed on location in LV) Tanna's bachelor pad was right next door to the Circus Circus Clown of Many a Nightmare, and right across from the short-lived Silverbird. The show is well worth a look, despite the cheeeezy plot-lines, inane superhero mentality, objectification of women and oft-dubious acting skills. The never-ending flow of 70s-era cameos & character actors is worth the price alone. WATCH as Mike Brady/ Robert Reed plays dad to (rape victim) Maureen McCormick/ Marcia-Marcia-Marcia Brady! WATCH as Red Buttons repeatedly scams the Maxim Casino slots! WATCH as Randolph Mantooth acts like a total douche bucket! You just can't go wrong, folks. They need to get this show on a streaming service ASAP.

A true adult playground of cheap fun before the "family oriented" politically correct crowd turned into the pretentious, overpriced, tourist trap it is today.

PERFECT music for this video!!! Thank you!

@ 2:11 Now I know why the video is titled Red Heat" I love watching vintage vegas vids on YT. My parents took the family 7 siblings, 1 aunty, 2 friends of my older brothers and it was a blast even tho I was 12 years old. My dad had rented a 79 Buick Regal so it was a 3 car caravan from Pasadena CA to Las Vegas.. I got to see Dean Martin at a dinner show at the MGM Grand which is now Bally's Hotel.. It was Labor Day weekend 1980, All the original hotels were up. I feel very lucky to have visited Vegas at the very end of its heyday..

Great video Thomas, i was living in Los Angeles, CA when in 1997 i decided to move to Las Vegas.

I really miss the 70's especially the cars and the shorts the ladies wore.

I grew up there and than. I seen some of the shows shown on the marquee. Keep looking for ppl or cars familiar. Thanks for the memories.

Great video.. My first year there was 1980.. Was 22. This video reminds me if then but a tad older even.. Thnx for posting..

The music is prefect .

Beauty film thank You Very much. .

Great video brings back so many memories for me.

My childhood growing up there, how I remember it before it changed for the worse.

It’s so crazy to see the old MGM before the fire !!

Being born & raised in Las Vegas, in my opinion the 70s and 80s were the best years to be here. Vegas was a polished gem in my eyes and the entertainment was classy, stylish, worth paying for and second to none.

Listening to this music and seeing the motorcycles, I was hoping to see Paunch and John!

Beautiful badass 70's!!!

Great Footage !! Brings back a lot of we need to go back to that better times

Love Everything About THis Video!!!

This was awesome!!! Thank you!!!

This is awesome!

That's exactly how I pictured in my own mind what life might be like today in Las Vegas, I bet that I'm completely wrong. OH, to live back in the '70's in Las Vegas!!!!! Short but very enjoyable presentation!!!

i love watching these old videos

Thanks for the memories!

Great vintage footage of my second home LV.

A bunch of these signs can be seen at the Neon Museum, just North of the old strip.

I was there for 2 nights back in August 1972 with my parents on a cross country car trip. Stayed at the Holiday Inn.

Great stuff!! Thanks so much for posting

I just love videos like this

So lovely.

This was my Vegas. I have lived here 8 years but this is an era only in my childhood memories.

Nice big American cars everywhere.

Thanks for the beautiful video I love it gr Jeffrey 🍀🌞☕😘🌴

I was at Circus Circus back in the 70s. My attorney and I were high on ether and LSD. Great times. Fearful. But great

This is the Vegas I first enjoyed, it truly was sin city but the entertainment was great, as you can see from the marquees. And it was cheap too. You didn't pay $135 a seat for a show. The shows were just a hook to get you into the casino. But I enjoyed the Vegas that evolved over the next 40 years too, up to around 2014 or so. It just kinda lost it's personality somewhere in that time.

I love it here!! Believe or not people are nice!!

R.I.P. Helen Reddy, Mac Davis, and all of the other performers headlined here who are no longer with us.

man do i remember those days, thx for the memories and the palomino how could you forget that place still a favorite, if you know what i mean....

This was an awesome video. My first time there, was '78.

First trip to Vegas was in August 1974. As the plane circled the western scrub land as it turned to go east, I remember looking out the window, not knowing I was looking at my future home site 19 years later. Planes still come over my house as they did almost 50 years ago.

Thumbs up if you’re here in 2020!

Amazing time travel 👍

Un air de liberté et de modernité. 🎉La musique est adaptée au sujet.

Gotta dig the 4” of travel on the ol Honda...

So Cool , perfect . Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻

Reminds me of "Corvette Summer". LV is just a big shopping mall now. Put a roof on it and crank-up the A/C.

This is like gold

3:53 imagine being a card counter back then 😎

Really cool video!! Thanks for posting!
