Kipper Ties and CB Radios

In 1977, flares, brightly coloured shirts, kipper ties and safari suits were everywhere. The charts were dominated by Elvis, Abba, David Soul, Boney M, The Bee Gees and Showaddywaddy. Punk Rock, Disco, Rock ‘n Roll, Soul, Country and Western and Pop all featured alongside middle of the road artists such as Val Doonican, Brotherhood of Man and Leo Sayer. Movies of the year included Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Saturday Night Fever and Smokey and the Bandit. These were the days before the Internet and mobile phones – people conversed on CB radios, cool kids mastered skateboarding while the more nerdy of us (Fig.1) were taken by another craze – metal detecting.
