Electra Glide In Blue - Chopper Chase Scene

[@r5t6y12]

In response to the comment made by "Sauquoit13456" (from 5 months before this comment)..... Pete Cetera (Bass Guitar and vocals) is Bob Zemko. He's the guy in the white overalls that the police are chasing in this scene. Terry Kath (Guitar and vocals) is the guy in the very last scene that's sitting in the passenger side of the van and shoots the shotgun blast at Robert Blake in the very last shot in the movie. Walt Parazaider (Woodwinds) is the guy in the group scene out by the house in the woods who's wearing the "loose lips sink ships" shirt and gets punched in the gut by the older man with Robert Blake. Lee Loughnane (Trumpet) is the guy in the pigpen that tells the older cop that he just stepped in pig shit.

Bill Hickman directed this chase. He was the driver of the 1968 Dodge Charger R/T in Bullitt, he was an excellent hi speed driver and chase scene master! RIP Bill Hickman!

[@carolebarker2195]

Wow! Didn't know that. Thanks for the info.

[@mrmabstoa]

Great job with the music. The road movies from the early 70's were great. Two Lane Blacktop and Dirty Mary Crazy Larry were good too.

[@sauquoit13456]

On this day in 1973 {August 19th} the Robert Blake movie "Electra Glide in Blue" had its world premier in New York City... Robert Blake received a Golden Globe Award nomination for 'Best Actor in a Drama' {winner was Al Pacino for 'Serpico'}... The film was produced by James William Guercio, who was the manager of the group 'Chicago' {as a result band members Peter Cetera, Terry Kath, Walter Parazaider, and Lee Loughnane all had small rolls in the movie}...

[@ashleys1145]

amazing chase scenes, only in the 70's

[@thepub245]

Bob must have been heading to a decorating job. I should have been a detective.

[@Mr714Orange]

Funny you mentioned that as I watched the DVD three days ago. I have watched this movie more than a dozen times and I still think it is a great film. It will always be a favorite with me.

[@John-ob7dh]

His cop buddy sure was trigger happy

[@MrPomdownunder]

Zipper was trying to kill Zimco (Peter Cetera) Zip had stolen the money and was trying to frame the bikers...

[@spral2662]

Unfortunately since Blake's passing all his movies and autobiography has gone over the top in price. However if you are interested he discusses alot about his life on the you tube "I Ain't Dead Yet", outstanding.

[@lewisfilms]

such a great film that has been forgotten... :(

[@stevepogue6034]

Though the city of OLD TOWN VICTORVILLE.....

[@lamarravery4094]

[@GarrettWorcester]

@@lamarravery4094 I have the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on vinyl and ripped it to digital about two years ago. I still have the album.😁

[@1114marco]

They don't pay stuntmen enough.

Maldita pelicula es una chingoneria y la rola ni se diga, epica cancion. Excelente video & track.

[@RCGoetzke]

Peter Cetera and Terry Kath of Chicago were avid motorcyclists back in the 1970s. Fortunately, Cetera didn't share Kath's passion for guns.

[@carolinagirlize]

don't screw up a masterpiece

[@sindilee]

Great chase scene!! Great stunts!!

[@marcosflorianodejesus9206]

Cool soundtrack

[@PlasmaCoolantLeak]

I bought the soundtrack back in the 70s. Made the mistake of loaning it to a friend, who thought it was okay to loan it to another friend. Never saw it again. I did find a copy at a secondhand store a few years ago.

[@Johnconno]

Sounds like a Porno, or so they tell me.

[@72daystar]

Stunt men, they don't get paid enough...

[@SubdolphinX]

I came here specifically to watch Billy Green Bush throwing a fit after Robert Blake kicks his bike over. Puzzling that anyone thought it would be OK to alter this great movie by eliminating dialogue.

[@stephenfrench6993]

I.saw this show.At the Northwood mall in Tallahassee.it was great,it left.a lasting impression especially the impressive rare slow motion footage.further more and without much delay,Robert.Blake went on to Super Cool status people(ypu just had to I realize this,and be there for Bobby..)'ve went on.just a few months later to become Barretta,and never missed a show...with his parrot Fred.(real his manners) and his friend Huggy bear,who went on to develops the first disposable comfortable diaper for kids under two years old. this great show "Barretta came on Tuesday,followed up by Starkey and Hutch.then Barnaby Jones,(what a line up for them.school nights..I thank the gods.that made.it happen.

[@SurfCityVideo]

This is how we did it in the 70's!

[@sindilee]

Ha ha the middle finger at 1:20!!!!

[@JohnSmith-kw9yc]

Back when stunt men were $50 a day cash, if you lived to collect.

[@19191919paul]

Great film but in reality, no one needs to be shot for riding a motorbike, illegally.

[@renesalcido7522]

downtown victorville.i remember them shooting by my house on 3rd &b street.

[@ugirl2]

awesome scenes, love the part when the car runs over the bike and they both go up in flames, and when the officer shoots the gas tank lol

[@tonyajohnson242]

I love Robert Blake.. a fine actor❤️

[@Furball2k]

Mama you gonna ride the train... and you gonna love it!

[@Stuntmanshawnee]

Love it. Have out ran lots of police on my bike many times. Love it when he kicks his partner's bike out of the way. No need to shoot anyone,its only a chase my man.

[@Rockandrollgeerage]

Stuntmanshawnee why did he kick his partner's bike?

[@robertclark6349]

@@Rockandrollgeerage His partner was using excessive force.

[@John-ob7dh]

The ending of the film was very similar to easy rider.😢

[@demetriushill9725]

This film has some of the same music found in the 70s African American movies in that Era

[@rjl7655]

good job w/ the tracks and vid, mr714orange...want to engineer my music/band?

[@ranchurdhimster4955]

They ran that guy right the fuck over

[@WizardOfWhoopee]

Classic B.

[@TheGrandWhoHa]

So... where is the Chopper???

[@goodbonezz1289]

At 2:47 I’m pretty sure that bike actually went down…

[@sindilee]

KILLER

[@royrush5374]

Great.

[@sundevilification]

Chopper? Alpina Bultaco or Honda 125s. ....!!

[@chrisdrummond8893]

Drive thru window

[@vinnyspina8437]

The young generation thinks they are slick! "WHAT'S YOUR BAGE NUMBER" in those days you didn't play around and if you were ignorant enough to try it you wound up falling down a flight of steps before you made it to the station.

[@filmbuff-ru4xt]

This is a good film but there should have been more action.

[@justincase2291]

The bad guy's were wearing helmets in the 70's.

[@trippihoffman]

👏🏾👏🏽👏🏾👏🏽👏🏾👏🏽👏🏾👏🏽👏🏾

[@GreenCanvasInteriorscape]

So I'm going to make a motorcycle movie and not have the sounds of the motorcycles come through on a chase scene and instead substitute horrible horn music from the '70s, it's so not fitting for this action cornering sliding blowing up scene

[@jamescastillo2405]

Why do you call this the chopper Chase? I don't see any chopper, a chopper has 6' foot forks.
