I was just a lil kid then, but even I knew it was something special *(culturally, at least, politically, it sucked after ‘74 until ‘81), at least I recognized it by the time it was all over. Especially now, when it’s horrible today across the board, culturally and politically. :-(
During the 70’s my age span was 3-13.
For a kid growing up you could not ask for better.
The problems began while entering the 80’s at the age of 13...
