My Old New York - Times Square of the Late 1970s

Here is a little movie I made using my old pictures from when I lived in New York back in the late 1970s. I also used some video clips that I found on the web too. I found a couple extra pics I wanted to put in, thus...version two!
NOTE: I originally had the music from Taxi Driver as the background music for this video, but it was removed by You Tube, so I had to select from one of their choices, so I selected A Sad Pathway by Musicshake.
The drummer at the end of this video is Gene Palma.
I don't know if he is still around or not. There was a neat message thread about him that I was just looking at, and all kinds of people were riding in saying about their experiences with him. The guy said it was like puzzle pieces coming together. He used to put shoe polish on his hair so we would look like Rudolph Valentino. He was consumed with the drums. Excellent drummer. I heard that someone stole his snare drum. All he had was a snare drum. Then he started playing on the metal newspaper machines. He became a fixture in Times Square. I guess that's when they saw him and featured him in the movie Taxi Driver. I heard that for his pay for doing the movie they gave him a snare drum. He was playing it in the movie.
