Actually the 1970s produced probably the best music of all time. I agree about the fashion though. Dreadful. I remember being in high school in 1978 and wearing platform shoes with a silk shirt unbuttoned down to the waist with a gold medallion necklace. Like one of the Bee Gees. I'm glad mobile phones with cameras weren't around back then but this was pretty much what it looked like:

Scary how popular that look was in movies and TV.

One of my greatest fears is that a picture of me wearing bell-bottoms surfaces. I sleep a bit better knowing that the flood that inundated >80% of the town might have destroyed any evidence. (^;

The famous “Mr. Guido” shirt.

That and 75 HP 454 cubic inch engines. I will never miss.

Poor Andy. Hard to believe the last surviving brother is the oldest. Watched all of his younger brothers go before him. :(
