Welcome

If you love music from the late 50s and 60s, perhaps even stretching occasionally into the 70s, you're in the right place.

What's your favorite Beatle tune? Were you lucky enough to see Elvis in concert? Do you still have your 45 collection? Which rock bands did you watch on Ed Sullivan? Were you one of the few who actually went to Woodstock? Do you feel the pull when the local casinos advertise the Commodores, Temptations or other 60s bands in concert?

If you grew up in Albuquerque, what are your 60s memories? Where did you cruise? Where could you get the best burger in town? Even if you aren't an ABQ native, what are your most vivid memories of your youth and what songs do you associate with them?

If you could program your own oldies radio station, what would you play?

Converse about all of these topics and anything about 60s pop culture and music here!
