April 16 Playlist

I like nothing better than discovering a truly lost record, one of those shoulda been a hit thingies.

I spend the little free time I have these days on YouTube, ITunes, Amazon, trying to find such gems and spotlighted several recent finds from the 60s on today's show. Feedback was inspiring; here's the playlist to remind you what you heard:

Thanks for listening!

April 9 Playlist + Sneak Peak

Today's look back to the AM radio hits (and rarities!) of April 1970 garnered some of the most positive feedback in the 6 years I've been on WVKR. I think having that extra half hour, knowing I wouldn't have to rush contribued to the fun. Maybe it was just the great tunes mixed in with the WTF songs. Whatever, YOU made it fun for me. THANKS! Here's the playlist:

March 19, 1966 Playlist

Had a whole different show planned for March 19th but after the stretch of weather we had this week, I got a bad case of Spring Fever and went back to possibly THE greatest chart in the history of Billboard charts--March 19, 1966. Perfect songs for toolin' around with the windows rolled down, workin' in the yard, whatever. Thanks to Peter Clark for joining in.

This week also coincided with the premiere of probably the greatest "Batman" episode ever--the debut of Julie Newmar as Catwoman and I featured clips from that very episode.

Hope you enjoyed. Email your comments lostoldies@yahoo.com and
THANKS for listening!
