MUSIC AS OLD AS I AM - A 50TH ANNIVERSARY/BIRTHDAY

PLAY THE SHOW

Please pardon me if I take a personal approach to today’s show, but it marks a bittersweet signpost in my life. As of today, October 22, I have ‘crossed over’ to the other side…. I’m an official member of the AARP….aww, heck, I’m fifty today.

            What better reason to look at music from fifty years ago this month? As usual, we have a few stories, and plenty of great songs. Here are songs that we cover in today’s show;
