Car Wash was a HUGE deal when I was a kid. That movie is iconic (within the black community). We had the sound track album, which opened up like a double album. Thank you for posting. Sad to see the car wash was torn down. I remember hearing the name of Reverend Ike growing up. He was a TV reverend and he was a sensation. Too me, Car Wash will always be considered a very good, very funny movie. It’s from a time long past.

Check out a movie Richard Pryor did here in Danville VA. He played Wendel Scott. He was here shooting that years ago. Mr Scott was a local celebrity here. Had a chance to talk to him a few times back in the day

I love Richard Pryor! Thanks Jordan never even knew that movie existed! Congrats 🎉🎊🍾 on 43k! You rock!

As a kid Car Wash, one of my favorite comedies

@EagleRockers 5 лет назад

I lived just a few blocks away from the car wash. I remember them filming there because I used the laundromat nearby. While my clothes were drying, I walked over to the set and saw Richard Pryor talking to the director, I assume. That was so cool! Had to go back and get my clothes and then went home. They filmed there for a very long time; my guess 1 month or so. I love L.A.!

When this film came out in the fall of 1976, I attended John Burroughs Jr. High, with Michael Fennell. The kid on the skateboard. In the spring of 1977, imagine my surprise when I saw Michael, now an 8th grader, driving a 1978 Gold Trans AM to school. That's right, an 8th grader. I later found out that he would park it behind the buildings on 3rd Street. He was a pretty cool guy, he told me how he was cast in the film. According to him, one day after school, he was riding his skateboard towards Gardner Park and a white guy pulled over and asked him if he wanted to be in a movie. Well, the rest is history.

@swilkobarfingtoniii1642 5 лет назад

I will argue that CAR WASH was the greatest movie ever made. It has everything... Great music, comedy... pathos... Professor Irwin Corey! The BEST!

Al's was a coffee shop and there was a 2nd 1 on Ventura Blvd near Lankershim. I ate in both.

@anniem9595 5 лет назад

Oh wow! I live in the building behind the strip mall on 6th & Wilshire! I watched Car Wash a few months ago and recognized the Big Six Market and realized I was living right next to the location shoot! Very surreal. I loved the movie... simply fun!

@chandraderrickson7812 5 лет назад

Hey Jordan, after watching this vlog about the movie Car Wash, I did a Google search for 6th and Rampart. What came up was a page that shows the Big 6 Market. If you click on outside photos, a group of photos comes up and in the group is a picture of the Car Wash and Al's that you talk about in your vlog. Great job on this vlog!!.

@drmarkintexas-400 2 года назад

Thank you, Jordan. All the people who were, or went on to become so famous. Franklin Ajaye has always been a favorite or mine. And, the car wash is no longer and so many have passed away 😓 I sorely Bonnie i Pointer, who was predeceased by her sister June Pointer and is survived by her brothers Aaron and Fritz and sisters Ruth and Anita Pointer. Deep sadness for me. Save when things change. I fully understand that's just life. But, I hate when memories die or are erased. Thank you for your time and effort and knowledge and doing your work. It's truly appreciated 🤗🏆🎖️.

@robertopulido368 4 года назад

There was or still is a library on that plaza that I would go to alot when I was a child. I'm 30 and it's so good to know that this film took place there

@RandyR 5 лет назад

When I moved back there In June 76, I was staying at Hotel California, across from McCarther Park. It was a dive. Don't think it is there any longer . I remember the old RTD transit system. I was wrong, I had always thought that it was the car wash in Sherman Oaks

@ronmaatita8845 5 лет назад

Franklin Ajaye is a tragically underrated comic. He should've been bigger!!!

@kidmack3556 2 года назад

Saw him live at the Punchline in 1979, on the same bill with the comedian that used to juggle a bowling ball and a raw egg and an apple while telling jokes.

@pamswilder51 5 лет назад

Richard Pryor was a great man, he gave me my biggest tip $200 a week or so before the fire. I never saw him again.

OMG!...My...Fav ...Movie...of...All-time!...I'm a Jersey girl who lived in Cali during that time period...So I can really relate to the movie...I even have the Car Wash theme as my ringback tone on my phone...Everyone tells me that they start dancing while they wait for me to answer...I often wondered how the area may have changed thru the years...Well, Thank You, Jordan!... I wait each day to see who or what will be your next subject...Well, today you hit a home run for me!

@martinbeneteau309 5 лет назад

I think the best thing to come out of this movie was the title song. I remember hearing it in the radio over and over! The radio stations in Detroit and Windsor wore it out.

@marymathews8421 5 лет назад

One of my favorite vlogs! Now i will have to pull out my DVD and rewatch. Glad you can get your guitars fixed. Love the blue ones in the shop. Poor Jah looked so disappointed that he wasn’t going to hang out, but at least the sun shines out there a lot. Nothing but lots of snow and clouds here in West Michigan today.

I stayed in that apartment building when it was a Howard Johnson hotel in 1997. The shopping area looked familiar then found out it was the location for Car wash!

@TuesdayAfternoon 5 лет назад

Really neat seeing the actual locations from the movie. Loved seeing Jah ‘s little face. The art on the time capsule looked beautifully detailed. So many beautiful guitars...a nice place to be on a rainy afternoon.

@leggettnada1 5 лет назад

Two of my favorite comedians they were both hilarious. Richard Pryor was hilarious in The Toy. The guitars are beautiful so many different colors and styles. Thank you Jordan for the vlog. Your a gem. BTW I watched your interview with It's Tonights Show and it was great. Love to you and the Jahster

Nice vlog Jordan i also thought Car Wash was funny the song was great ! Cool guitar shop ! Jah's little face when you told him you were going out Awww ;-)

@gregfisher4529 4 года назад

I remember seeing an old interview with Richard Pryor (maybe Mike Douglas) and Mike asked Richard who influenced him to get into comedy. He told a story about being a kid in his bedroom and all of a sudden he heard his dad laughing hysterically at something on tv. So he runs into the room and asks his dad what is so funny. All his dad could do was point to the tv, and it was Jerry Lewis. Richard said from that point on he knew he wanted to do comedy cause he loved hearing his dad laugh. :)

I loved the movie! It was real for the time. Calling in to win tickets from the radio station...who didnt do that in the 70's? I know I did!! The music was great! I could watch this movie at any time its on! Thanks for the vlog Jordan! Great as always!!

@kidmack3556 2 года назад

@LC Did you ever win? I won twice! But never won in the '70s... Once in 1980 for $1000 dollars worth of coupons to local restaurants and sporting events. And again in 1988 for 4 tickets to the premiere of Clint Eastwood's directorial debut about Thelonius Monk "Straight No Chaser"

@neilouellette3004 3 года назад

This was one of my favorite movies when it came out. Obviously a comedy but it had a few serious shots mixed in with it. 80%/20% serious. Perfect balance of a comedy. When a comedy is 100%, it can turn out to be stupid. Like a few of comedy's we've all seen. Throw in a couple serious shots, it takes the stupidity away. Great movie!! Never seen it?? Watch it. Can't beat Richard Pryor, George Carlin and the Pointer Sisters. Legends!

Richard Pryor was on another level not only as a comedian but as an actor! He also was very loyal to the people he liked and that is why you see a lot of the same actors in his movies!

@spokanetomcat1 5 лет назад

You can see the slab where the cars are pushed through the car wash in the parking lot. A lasting footprint for all time knowing where this car wash was located at.

@patrickmoore3538 4 года назад

Excellent video. When I came to California in 1988 I went to the site of 6th and Rampart to see if the car wash was still there, and they had just started the building of the strip mart, unfortunately. When I saw the movie on TV around 1978, it showed the scene with Danny Di Vito, but oddly it's not included on the DVD. Very funny and interesting fact about "Reverend Ike"! Great and informative videos, a lot of fun.

@jodihepler6202 5 лет назад

I'm going to have that song in my head for the rest of the day. I actually have it on 45. Thanks a bunch. Love you 2 and have a great day.

@ironic677 5 лет назад

Hey Jordan you know what I find funny is that in the African American community we always think we know where it was filmed and I personally never considered 6th & Rampart. I've always thought it was filmed in South Central or Else Sagundo or someplace like that along with allot of other people. Hey thanks man for the videos. I really appreciate your dedication to to Hollywood History.

@patjones2082 Год назад

You mentioned that Daddy Rich (Richard Pryor) shows up in a gold Cadillac. Since you really like trivia about this movie, that car was actually a Lincoln Continental stretch limousine. Love the movie, so this was a fun video. Thanks for the tour and for posting👍

@jasonmcgovern1364 5 лет назад

Hi Jordan, what a great film, great to see that some filming locations have virtually survived. Loved seeing the Jahster listening to you when you said you will be back soon. Those Flamingos in the garden, how funny! What a neat little guitar shop aswell. Great vlog Jordan.

@mzshonda33 4 года назад

That is one of my favorite movie, so many actors/actresses were in this movie.

@davejr02 5 лет назад

Jordan, so cool you mentioned Johnny Lang. I live 45 minutes east from were Johnny is from. He's from Fargo North Dakota. Fargo has ties to some big names. Actor Josh Duhamel's dad lives in Fargo, he visits often. Actor Jeff Bridges visits Fargo since his mother inlaw lives there. The city of Moorhead which is just over the river east of Fargo is were Buddy Holly, Big Bopper, and Ritchie Valens were headed to when sadly they crashed. Former member of Genesis also lives in Fargo.

Another great vlog 😁😁. I love the movie Car Wash lol. Love the song, too. Now I want to watch the movie, its been years since I saw it. George Carlin is my all time favorite comedian, we lost him too soon. Richard Pryer was great too. Love his movies with Gene Wilder the most. The guitar shop was really cool, I would love to learn more about Wolf guitars. Great vlog, thank you so much for sharing 😁😁😁.
