The Seventies Section What Happened in the Seventies?

The thrilla' in Manila. I once was lost, but now I'm found. Lust in my heart. Special orders don't upset us. Inna gadda da vida. You can learn a lot from a dummy. Lay a little lovin' on me. Is the caller there? Far out! Sock it to me. Elvis has left the building. ... and so it goes.

When we think of social changes in the 20th century, we usually focus on the 60's. Indeed, the seeds of massive social change were planted in the 60's, and we saw some of the changes begin. But if you want to know how it all cut loose, you need to look at the 70s. It was absolutely nuts! For you scholars and would-be freaks and geeks, you can take our 70s Quiz to test your knowledge of what happened in the 70s. And when you're done there, you can read the 70s Story, our description of that "far out" decade. Click here to test your knowledge! Beyond that, we have several features at BBHQ that span the boomer years. We taper off at the end of the 70s, however. The later part of the 70s was far less interesting; we leave that to the Gen-X'ers.

So... please tell us what do you think of our 70s Section. Include your e-mail address if you want a response. We will respond to all comments that include an e-mail address.

BBHQ Boomer-in-Charge Hershel Chicowitz always has something to say, offering a boomer perspective on current events:

In This Week with the Chicowitz, Hershel explores technology good... and technology bad:
"Hair spray for men: good idea -- Spray-on hair for men: bad idea. ---- The Bikini: good idea. -- The Bikini brief for men: bad idea."

The BBHQ Album of the Month is "Old Friends Live on Stage (Deluxe Edition) (2 CD/1 DVD)," by Simon & Garfunkel. If you were fortunate enough to see them in concert last year, I do not have to sell you. The concert was terrific! This album collection includes 55 songs, plus their new recording, "Citizen of the Planet," and one of the songs sung by the Everly Brothers during the concert. The DVD was recorded during their concert in Madison Square Garden in 2003. For any S&G fan, this is a must have! But then, you knew that already, didn't you?

The BBHQ Book of the Month is "Vinyl Highway," by Dee Dee Phelps. You remember her as Dee Dee, of Dick and Dee Dee. Together, they took a decade long ride on the rock and roll roller coaster. It was a heck of a ride! Dick Clark, Quincy Jones, the Beach Boys, Glenn Campbell, Dionne Warwick, Bobby Vinton... Dick and Dee Dee rubbed shoulders with all of them. This is her "behind the scenes" story. It's pretty cool.
