Additional Information
Popular culture in Jersey, as in Britain, changed significantly during the 1970s. In contrast to the psychedelic sixties, the seventies was a decade characterised by an earthy colour palette of brown, orange and green. It was a decade of social, political and economic change. Society began to rebel against the commercial and materialistic ways of the 1960s and punk music became a voice for these anti-establishment sentiments. Elsewhere, flared trousers, fondue dinners and roller-discos were all the rage, whilst the technological breakthrough of home video recording meant that, for the first time, people could document their day to day lives through film.
