Do you like some of the older songs, and have some trivia or questions to share?...Here is the place!...I will start...........

There were many 'One hit wonders' in the late 60's and early 70's...

What is a song that Scott Mc Kenzie came up with, that referenced San Francisco?

I want to say it "Are you going to San Francisco"

I remember when he did the song. I was a youngun and actually lived up by Frisco, my dad was stationed up there. We used to play Popcorn when I was in Junior High in the band.

Hot Butter and I can't remember when. How about Commander Cody and the Lost Planet Airmen? And we can not forget our favorite country western singer making his off his daughter.

(girls aren't the only ones anymore)......But then, when I used to live down that way, there were times and places that I suppose flowers were fine, because at least they were wearing SOMEthing.

I guess the hippie gene just isn't in me..............but I'm ok with the motorhead/goofball gene instead.

Not bad for a start...What can you say about Faron Young, Ferlin Husky and Johnny Horton?

Yes I do know that I am going back into the 40's and 50's.
