By real oldies I hope you don't mean what's probably the largest demographic group on the BBS. It wasn't hard except for #22. That one took a second look. Must have been popular on the West Coast. Thanks for posting this one. I was a veteran of Alan Freed R&R show at the Brooklyn Paramount. It wasn't all the music we just figured there would be a concentrated population of chicks. Now who uses "chicks" anymore? It's not a question so much as an obervation. I hit the TV remote over to the Music Channel and listen to the golden oldies instaed of commercials. Drives my wife nuts but she's getting used to it.
