Remember them.....I danced to just about all of them. Lots of warm loving feelings that went with most of their music.

Well Captain, I remember most of them, especially the ones from the 60's and 70's, plus a few of the 50's artist. Guess I dated myself, too!

If you remember all those, then you may also recall:

- groceries delivered to your doorstep, left there all afternoon and noone would touch them

- "check your oil?" at the gas station

- families owning a decent house on a single income

- ladies & gentlemen

- a mom to come home to after school

- Christmas assembly at school acually called "Christmas Assembly" and stores daring to mention Christmas

- evening television you could watch with kids

- hot water radiators in homes

and a bunch more stuff....

So, captchas, you be in your late fifites or early sixties. Unfortunately I'm right there with ya. I remember all of those. I have all of the PBS Doo Wop vids and several thousand 45's and several hundred albums. I was a record collector at one time. I never parted with any of them. Have several of the Beatles albums that are on the rare side like the White Album with the overlay. Remember the song Tragedy? There were two versions. In it, they have the verse "live in sin". Far, far too risque for that time zone. I have both versions with the verse and without it. How about "Mule Skinner Blues"? Made the top rock charts here. Then there was Sandy Nelson with the drums. Speaking of that drums, hows about "Topsy, Part II". And then there was Dwayne Eddie, Dee Clark, Tommy Sands, Gene Pitney, Del Shannon, Bobbie Vinton, Herb Alpert, Percy Faith,to name a few of the older oldies.
