Video

"I went there for the buffet" Sure sure.

A lot of clips from the documentary 80 Blocks from Tiffany's. It's about the street gangs of the South Bronx in the 1970s.

What's the song at 52:00?

😮 I was 13 and those were the days ! Crazy fun ! No worries! Started smoking pot back then !

Please put it automatic subtitles

Pagaria fácil uma assinatura mensal pra ver Gastão e Gordo uma vez por mês trocando ideia.

This is a great docu about the best city on earth, i was 8yrs old in 1977

The only thing cool to come out of that was punk rock, everything else was shit. Shitty city, nothing but crime. If 1977 new York was a disease it would be cancer. Nothing but crap. I'm willing to bet AIDS started that year, in that city.

And my attitude was...fuck 'em. Love, New York City

Thanks for posting this. I've never even heard of it

Me: “Yo steve what did the five fingers say to the face!?!”. Steve: “what!?!?! U can’t come in”. Me : SLAP !!!

New York City was at it's lowest in 1977... An array of these comments place so much blame on the citizens of the city... New York City was led by corrupt city officials, politicians, and politics and the city suffered as a result of that... Various communities and people within were purposefully neglected, disenfranchised, and underfunded... Within it all, people joined together to create such great music, though of different genres, but all under the same umbrella of music artistry... By the early 1980s, President Ronald Reagan, ushered in a restoration that primarily catered to wealthy White people, while campaigning communities and people of color as criminals; in addition to his misinformation and disinformation known as "Reaganomics"... The Disco Sucks movement was a right-wing hate campaign, fueled by racism and sexism... Then crack cocaine was purposefully placed into impoverish communities of color; thus affluent White communities could point their fingers at... Cocaine was the drug of choice for wealthy White people, which they were never referred as being criminals...

Amazing doc the best ever!!!!

Roller skating to the Disco lookin' out for Son of Sam

Bambaata is a pedo tho tbh

VH1 had great docs on there

I watch this at least once a year

This is an amazing documentary.

this is true revolution, i love this PUNK'S NOT DEAD

44:25 so wait you mean to tell me that there was a blackout and everybody in the hood and the ghetto decided to riot? That's unbelievable! In case you can't tell I'm being facetious...

Geraldo is such a tool

The closest thing to NY77 that the Midwest ever experienced was Max's Kansas City. Actually there were some pretty crazy serial killers even in the Heartland like BTK in Wichita, Gacy in Chicago and Dahmer in rural Wisconsin. The social rot had gone to all 50 states, whether they'll admit it today or not.

Very interesting show.I was only nine and living in Illinois and am learning a whole lot about what the outside world was like .The guests are very interesting to listen to wonderful mix of fact and humor.I

Can anyone identify the song at 29:20? Such an infectious beat.

This is good shit. I now understand New York.... Jk lol 😂 insanity.

the guy at the beginning sounds like the gta iv weazel news guy dont you think

I wish the next gta would be late 70's, because my god it oozes personality.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...

Love this but DJ Kool Herc was the founder of hip hop not Bambaattaa, although he did a big part during the early stages of the movement.

Anyone know what that disco piano tune in the background is? Comes up often, but wondering if it’s a song. Perfectly sounds like the 70s.

Those rappers and Djs had bad theeth

Lmao 🤣..57:40 anyway I'm from NYC..what's going on now with the bullshit mayor and the run for new mayor and the BLM movement, covid the crime and crime against asians would make a great new documentary..NYC 2020 the shitiest year in hell..

Word's have not been invented to describe how much I love this doc.My fave.The music/art,New York nowadays is too antiseptic and clean.Bad old days, good ol'days.

Looking for the title to the track playing 53 minutes in if anyone can help.

The coolest dacade

Like this documentary

One day. Someone needs to make a 10 hour documentary about 1977 NYC.

If ever get the opportunity to go back in time. NYC 1977. That's my thing

gloria gaynor doesn’t age! damn what a beautiful woman. shoutout to nyc 1977. one of the most creative times in world history, not just new york.

Loved this documentary.🗽🗽🗽

40:47- fire lime green Nike's posted up on the shelf there...

2:52 i support him

I hate the sound of glass breaking

Me and my mother was sitting in Jacobi hospital in the emergency entrance seating area when the blackout hit. I remember the cieling lights were flickering but, you wouldn't have known there was a citywide blackout because of their backup generators kicking in. After awhile, people started arriving all fucked up, bleeding. My older sister was walking with her boyfriend somewhere in The Bronx when an M-80 was thrown and it blew up near her foot. Moms got the call from her boyfriend and we grabbed a Parkway cab to get there. I was 8yrs old at the time but remember it like it was yesterday.

the year I moved to NY was '77. I just remember having fun. Lots of drugs, clubs,etc. Not sure what these people in this vid was talking about. Lots happening.... CBGBS, max's kansas city, studio54, , it was anything goes . People were freaking out about son of sam, but that happens many places, there was the boston strangler, 1-5 killer. But it was a creative, happening period. DIsco was going out, punk was coming in

In 2020 with all the crazy stuff going on? Seems like NYC has entered this era again. Just a few weeks ago a dozen or so subway cars got tagged in graffiti again.

We're getting back to this because of COVID.

I was born in 1977.

0:28 name song?
