sonnyt111 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 The best locally-produced Coke commercial from that decade. Very classy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8bO8KITe3k Starring John Lacson and Bing Pimentel. Mari Kaimo is the guitar-playing dude in the balcony (0:17 to 0:19).I remember this one too!! It's amazing how old tunes remain buried in one's sub-conscious until they're brought out into the open with videos like these. Quote Link to comment

KayaK Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Karate movies proliferated in the 70s. Bruce Lee's local counterparts were doing good in the movies as well, like Ramon Zamora and Rey Malonzo. In most local karate movies, the top villain was Tsing Tong Tsai. Quote Link to comment
Jay P. Mercado Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Anyone who has the clip of the Coca-Cola commercial that featured the track "I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing?" They altered the lyrics a bit to include the Coke brand in the jingle... Quote Link to comment
muttley Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I remember the "mag beer muna tayo" theme but I don't remember this commercial. Would you know what year this commercial was shown on tv? I think this came out around 1975. That's comedian Bert "Tawa" Marcelo with movie villain Rocco Montalban (as "Bruno"). Quote Link to comment
storm Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 Kapag ganitong mainit, we frequent the Magnolia House along Aurora Blvd. My favorite then was Brown Derby. I also remember the Dairy Queen in Buendia, Makati. Quote Link to comment

storm Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 The place to stroll then in Araneta Center, Cubao were Farmer's Market, Fiesta Carnival, Rustan's Superstore and Ali Mall. Our favorite theater was Cinema 21, the only one with the reclining seats. I was a bowlwer and my homebase was Coronado Cubao in Rustan's. That's where we play the Night Driver. I dated one of the beautiful waitresses at Shakey's in Ali Mall where our friend was the manager. In Makati Commercial Center, I remember Makati Supermart's sweet spaghetti but my favorite was Swiss Inn's bolognese. It's beside Coronado Lanes. I had my first taste of Korean food in Kimchi inside Fastfood and the Vietnamese Pho beside it. The best burger for me was at Great American Disaster in Glorietta Park where Ling Nam (our favorite favorite beef mami) was also located. Surrounding Glorietta Park were Mayfair, Angela Arcade and Bricktown. There were Syvel's, Maranaw Mart, Sulu ,Makati Supermarket, Shoe Mart and Rizal Theatre Arcade. Rustan's then was a big blue building and the Hotel Inter-Continental Manila's Where Else was our homebase at night time. I had my first taste of Japanese food in Miyako. Mr. Ho was my dad's favorite Chinese restaurant. There's a Magnolia House inside Quad. Quote Link to comment
storm Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) I remember, there were 3 art galleries aside from Ayala Museum inside the Makati Commercial Center. They were Hidalgo Gallery, Quad Gallery in Quad and Galerie Bleu in Rustan's. There was also Lising Commercial Center, Assandas and Automat. In Greenbelt area, there were 3 Discos - first was Delirium, then came Another World and later on La Cueva which became Faces in the 80s to the 90s. I drove a 1302 beetle when I got my license (my age was faked) in 1976. It looked like this http://www.volksieworld.co.za/images/blue.jpeg Edited May 4, 2013 by storm Quote Link to comment

But my parents insisted that the Beetle was the better car. German made, thicker body, more stable and safe. It was the People's Car. Edited May 4, 2013 by storm Quote Link to comment

There was a time when Teriyaki Boy had really great food and was reasonably priced. Today I think the quality has deteriorated a bit and the price has gone up considerably so I now avoid eating there. Anyone know if there's a Kimpura branch in Makati which replaced the one that used to be beside Peking Garden? Quote Link to comment

I also remember the Dairy Queen in Buendia, Makati.A Robinson's mall now sits in the location where Magnolia House once stood along Aurora Blvd. I passed there last night and saw the Robinson's mall for the first time since I rarely pass through the San Juan/Quezon City boundaries.

oscartamaguchiblackface Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Alaska Milk Philippine Commercial Classic 1974. With PBA or was it MICAA import Cisco Kid Oliver I clearly remember Cisco Kid Oliver and Billy Robinson teaming up in Mariwasa and going up against the likes of Tom Cowart and Paul Scranton of Crispa. I was amazed at the level of play of these guys. They were all over 6'7 inches tall and in the early 70's one usually played center if he was at least 6'1 tall!! These guys dominated Philippine basketball in those early days. Quote Link to comment
