I Remember That

Once upon a time there were several wars. The War on Drugs, the Cold War and the war on cavities, clean kitchens and whiter laundry. There was also the Vietnam War. For episode 18 of our oldies program ‘I Remember That’ we spin a couple hours of Top 40 radio tunes from the tail end of the Vietnam era. Put in your TV dinner because it’s time to rock and listen for the monthly test of the air raid siren.

Oldies radio doesn’t play oldies any more. Sometimes its referred to as “Classic Rock”. We promise to never play anything after 1970. For our debut episode of I Remember That, the show dedicated to the TRUE Golden Oldie, we show you what Art Laboe played, what Huggy Boy played, and what other great DJs played at their Rock ‘n’ Roll sock hops! You will never hear “Fly Like an Eagle” on our oldies program. Only the real deal straight outta your AM radio!
