    Oldies

    Understanding I turned from Rock at some point after salvation, I can at least share with you some of my favorites:

    - 50s - Tom Dooley, Kingston Trio and Mac The Knife, Bobby Darin
    - 60s - Nights in White Satin, Moody Blues and Sound of Silence, Simon & Garfunkle
    - 70s - Can't Get it out of My Head, Electric Light Orchestra and Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress, Hollies

    Just listened to that on the way in to work on my iPod.
    I also like the original version which most haven't heard.
    Scarborough Fair and the 59th Street Bridge Song were both good.

    I like the Tijuana Brass :)

    The Brothers Four were great.

    Classical Gas by Mason Williams

    The Green Hornet Theme by Al Hirt.

    Downtown. Petula Clark

    Most of the stuff the carpenters did.

    Love is Blue - Paul Mauriat

    Leaving on a Jet Plane - Peter, Paul and Mary

    El Paso City - Marty Robbins

    Both sides Now - Judy Collins (and the Brothers Four did it too)

    A Boy named Sue - Jonny Cash

    Moonlight Seranade - Glen Miller

    Rinestone Coyboy - Glen Campbell

    King of the Road - Roger Miller

    Danny's Song - Anne Murray

    My Cup Runneth Over - Ed Ames

    The Last Farewell - Roger Whittaker



    Ok, ok, I guess that is enough for now.

    Do I sound like I am old enough to remembe all of that?

    I love "Classical Gas".

    My favorite by Peter, Paul and Mary is "Puff, the Magic Dragon". It was the first 45 rpm record I asked my parents to buy me.

    The five greatest songs ever recorded, in no particular order......

    My Girl - Temptations
    Good Vibrations - Beach Boys
    The Wind Cries Mary - Jimi Hendrix
    Over Under Sideways Down - Yardbirds
    Spinning Wheel - Blood, Sweat & Tears

    McDirector, I LOVE the Mills Brothers. Ever heard "Rockin' Chair", or "Cielito Lindo" ?
