Thanks for the share BB. It reminds me that a lot of these tunes were not in rotation in my time. The local radio stations really did control what we heard. Grateful for the web and you for bringing this music to my ears.
ReplyDeleteNice compilation - I only know a few of the names, but that's half the fun - thanks BB
