Ever since I was a kid, I’ve wanted to have my own #OldiesCountdown like KRTH or WCBS. Send your top 15 oldies hits, ranked. I’ll include mine below. Oldies can be anything before now, but preferably not obscure album cuts. If enough folks play, I hope to have a real countdown
#OldiesCountdown 15
I Want to Hold Your Hand
Born to Run
Your Song
Little Red Corvette
I’m a Believer
God Only Knows
I Second that Emotion
Like a Rolling Stone
Ruby Tuesday
Build Me Up Buttercup
Philadelphia Freedom
Dancing in the Dark
Just Like Heaven
Wonderwall
Mr Brightside
Okay. Ranked may be tough if people are just naming one or two songs. A list is better than a smattering. But I can also work with a smattering.
Would it be better if I asked for fewer?

I’m not above “listener” input.

The recent, sad passings of Lance Kerwin and Adam Rich have got me thinking of how quickly time is passing. And thinking a lot about the 1970’s. This thread is a quick photo salute to some of my other favorite 70’s figures, real or fictional. Enjoy. 🤟 Image

There is no sports team I love more than #USMNT. And I’ve never been less excited for a World Cup, because of Gregg Berhalter’s arrogance & stubbornness. 3 years in & he’s still basing player selection around his system & not the other way around. Setting this team up to fail. 🇺🇸
Insistence on playing a “high line” w/o the players to do it. Even worse, an adherence to “playing out of the back” long after we assumed we were done with that. Long/ Zimmerman are not the CBs for that. If you insist on it, call up Brooks & Ream. What a disaster this close to WC
Jordan Pefok’s the most obvious case in point. For an entire qualifying cycle the narrative has been “we don’t have a 9 who can score.” Suddenly, an American is lighting up the Bundesliga but GB won’t call him. Doesn’t fit his “system.” All he does is score goals & assist on them

Me: I like to use Twitter to provide real time commentary on current events as their happening.

Also Me: I can’t believe more people aren’t following my super timely thread on “60’s Pop Bands appearing on 60’s Sitcoms.” 😩😩
I was today years old when I learned about:

The Buffalo Springfield on Mannix

Or that my beloved Paul Revere & the Raiders were on Batman.

How about I combine 2 of my favorite topics— 60s pop and 60s tv?

Here are some of my favorite TV appearances by 60s musical acts.

Beginning, of course, with Boyce & Hart on Bewitched.

Which naturally must be followed up by:

Boyce & Hart on I Dream of Jeannie

And both of those were predated by:

Chad & Jeremy on the Patty Duke Show
