Sunset Over Balikpapan Bay 1978, Balikpapan, Kalimantan Timur (East Borneo), Indonesia. I lived in Balikpapan in 1977 & 1978 where I taught ESL and explored East Borneo on my free time. Great memories and thanks to scanning old slides earlier this year - photos to match the memories. #Sunset #Balikpapan #LateSeventies #EastBorneo #BalikpapanIndonesia #PhotoArchives (at Balikpapan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYHibOQvQ7H/?utm_medium=tumblr

In England 🇬🇧 by Annabelle & M Via Flickr: It was in the summer of 1977, the year of HRH Queen's Silver Jubilee, and Queen was playing in London the night we arrived in England. We never bothered with reserving a room at a hotel, and by the end of the evening, we still had not found an affordable place to sleep. Finding something to eat tho, was less of a challenge: Fish and Chips wrapped in newsprint was perfect for our very first meal in the UK, and the unexpected extra that came with the dinner helped us find a place to sleep: under the park bench of where we earlier sat and ate our meal. What we didn't expect was on company joining us that evening. A young fellow who had attended the Queen concert earlier that night had missed the last train home and asked if we could share one of our sleeping bags with him: of course, we girls obliged. Strangely, in the wee morning hours, he was gone. England, already, was being spooky. The following night we arrived in Scarborough, again with no reservations. It wasn't too long before someone spotted our Canadian flags on our backpacks, two fellows from a neighboring karate school who graciously offered us a room for the night but, that didn't turn out too well when their coach walked in with the rest of the class and canceled our room. So we resumed our search. Walking past a nightclub closing its doors for the night, Grace Jones singing La Vie En Rose drifting in the night air, I felt a hand pat my backpack: it was a policeman. We had finally found a place for the night, the local police station. They felt sorry for us Canadians and put us up for the night. The morning came early with a hot cup of coffee; I took one last look into the large glass mirror in the room before heading out, paused, and then wondered. Naw! Side notes: I love keeping old things in small, glass cases reminding me of the past. I bought this pin of the Union Jack when I was in England and pinned it to what I believe to be a Royal Navy WW1 Petty Officers Cloth Bullion Cap Badge. Might be British or Canadian, either one, I love the fact that I now own one. And this song was playing all over the airwaves in the late seventies. It always takes me back to the night we spent in Scarborough, England, the time of The Queen's Jubilee,and the room with a two-way mirror? lol Grace Jones classic '77 track youtu.be/J-JfDk_EKxY

The Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock & Roll: #jonimitchell Born Roberta Joan Anderson in 1943, Joni is one of the most respected singer/songwriters. Her career had ranged from #latesixties and #earlyseventies with confessional folk-pop songs to #lateseventies cult status with a series of jazz-inflected experiments. #rockandroll https://www.instagram.com/p/B-usJifFkcC/?igshid=d5kog3435k8n

#AngrySamoans #LA #America #EarlyEighties #LateSeventies #PunkRock #Music #CD #Collection This famous CD has all the Angry Samoans seven inches on it. They had a no holes barred approach and didn't care who they pissed off recording. This is real punk rock because it's not too hard but it's controversial and they are having fun doing it.

Borneo Rainforest - 1977 or 1978 I think this was a photo I took from a hill overlooking the rainforest. I remember getting there on a dirt road, possibly created by loggers. I rode there on a small motorcycle I used to explore. I was in my early twenties and was having lots of adventures while also teaching ESL Classes in Balikpapan, Kalimantan Timur, Indonesia. Sadly, from what I can see on Google Earth this part of the rainforest is not there anymore. There are some preserved areas but nothing like the vast stretches of rainforest from over 40 years ago. #Borneo #Rainforest #VintagePhoto #BorneoRainforest #LateSeventies #KalimantanTimur #KalimantanTimurIndonesia (at Kalimantan Timur) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXPKsUrvQ6F/?utm_medium=tumblr

Favorite Memories: Me as a young person in the late seventies on a grassy hill in Indonesian Borneo near segments of jungle not too far from Balikpapan, Kalimantan Timur (East Borneo), Indonesia. I had such an amazing time with wonderful people. Teaching English As A Second Language and exploring on my free time. #Me #MeOnAMotorcycle #EasyRider #ExploringBorneo #Balikpapan #KalimantanTimur #Indonesia #LateSeventies #FondMemories #KalTim #EarlyTwentiesLife #FavoritePhoto (at Kalimantan Timur) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVTXrjAvFkJ/?utm_medium=tumblr

Think Elvis. His similar singing and speaking voice were his claim to "fame". #Orion #sunrecords #coloredvinyl #lateseventies #whowasthatmaskedman #rockabilly #tragicdeath
