Back To The 70's


Recommended Posts

Were you there during the bonfire?

If I knew, sana sumama ko sa mga anak ko who were there too hehehe...

 

Balita nga another Baste high school jewel, Bringas is being lured over to the Ateneo. Kawawa naman yung San Sebastian. Buenafe did not play for them in college, tapos baka si Bringas pa, who is reportedly a 6'6 behemoth..

 

Gone are the glory days of San Sebastian. Correct me if I'm wrong, guys, pero I remember San Sebastian having some sort of mini-dynasty way back in the 70's or 80's. Nun yatang panahon nina Greg Otazu?

nice to see the old pares back - sliderule and Magaling hehehe

cheers!

 

oy pare, kumusta na? yes, i was there but left before the bonfire. had a great time seeing my former classmates...some of whom were still passing around mogs! i think you are referring to jimmy otazu, the bemoustached point guard who played with benjie cleofas, boy mora, david supnet, etc. i think baste also won titles with paul alvarez. heard about bringas but then he'll have to line up before al-hussain and justin chua whos still raw.

Oo nga. Panay amba lang. Hehehe.

 

Mejo nakakalabas na ko. we went to makati kanina tapos traffic pauwi, so daan ng Rockwell. We watched a movie. Gaganda ng mga project na turntable. May brand new "Eagles" na plaka P2,600.00. Eric Clapton compilation - P5+k

 

Tomorrow baka nasa Cubao X ako ng around 4pm. Tex me kung may pupunta.

thanks for refreshing my faulty memory, pare. Indeed those years were "Golden" but only to those who had the dynasty hehehe. Imagine a 5-peat. Can Ateneo or San Beda now be capable of such a feat?

 

 

 

yeah pare we miss you. I thought you were still in HK. Yung sinasabi mong HMV dun, napuntahan namin nung May. Dami ngang DVD dun and catalogued pa according to Director! Say all works by Fellini sama sama then all works by Godard etc. Medyo steep nga lang price and hey wala akong nakitan Bullitt!

The CD section there is to die for pero may kamahalan nga talaga compared to other CD outlets sa tabi-tabi dun...

 

...or maybe a Peter Aguilar, who at 6'9 started out also reedthin for Ateneo. Pero balita beefed-up na daw siya sa States...

...wish we can all get back together - Magaling, sbm, 16track, slide, storm, gadj hehehe

 

bro, that's japeth aguilar you are referring to and he's now in division 2. according to some admu alumni, nonoy baclao was given a second look by norman black when he emphatically blocked aguilar in a game some years back...soon after he was recruited.

 

yup, let's tentatively sked an eb perhaps sometime last week of october. suggested dates? place? will be in bacolod this week for the masskara.

 

para di ot, and since we've been talking about mags, cb, pioneer kp models and other car accessories, anybody remember the old gas stations? esso, mobil, filoil, getty?

As long as Week days-- okay ako sa CD exchange. Got me a Temptations Cd.

Very cool music!

 

The Temptations, although they started in the 60--soared even higher in the 70s.

From what I recall. these were 70's releases by the Temptations:

 

1. Papa was a Rolling Stone

2. Just my Imagination

3. Ball of Confusion

4. Happy People

 

I used to go home after school and channel 9 would be showing reruns of a TV special featuring the Temptations.

man, i love the temptations. i love the whole soul groove. the 5th dimensions, the spinners, the four tops, etc. lets have soul and funk as our theme during the next eb.

 

bossing, do you by any chance have a copy of elvis' "true love travels thru a gravel road"?

heheh! That Soul Groove was one of a kind!

 

I remember watching the Commodores in Araneta sometime in the mid 70's and it was a blast.

That time, Lionel Ritchie was so funky -- it's almost impossible to believe that he'd go the soft Hallmark way later in his career.

 

Nakakainis lang as I can't find my darned copy of the Commodores "Best of" CD.

Anybody got one??

 

The Commodores even came out with a track called 'CEBU" as one of the members fell in love with the place when they visited the place.

 

Those 70's funk groups really had that group.

 

Up to now, Isaac Hayes still rocks me with Shaft!

Ihabol na rin Chicago and Tower of Power and Kool and the Gang

 

Whoaa Tower of Power!

 

I had the privilege to watch this legendary group in LA in a small bar.

 

Man oh man, I got to see my idol Stephen "the Doctor" Kupka and the rest of the gang play my favorite tunes including my all time favorite, the instrumental "Squib Cakes" !

 

Tapos sinundan ng Soul Vaccination, What is Hip, Only so much Oil in the Ground, Don't Change Horses (in the Middle of the Stream) and siempre Below us, All the City Lights !

 

I miss this funky group !

Heheh! Now we really have to have that CD exchange. Trade your Commodores for a Chicago CD?

 

Chicago is one of my favorite bands till now. Even after they went throgh several personnel changes

( including the death of Terry Kath and eventual departure of Peter Cetera), the band has managed to retain it's unique sound and arrangements.

 

Let me know when bro!
