What're some of your fav songs/music? Mine is....?

Well, I was born in early 46 and my parents loved the radio. I especially was impressed by music in the early 50's when it shifted out of the big-band era to more individual artists like Patty Page, Doris Day, Teresa Brewer, Jo Stafford and Les Paul/Mary Ford. Piaf was great! "Milord" (not sure of the spelling) was excellent. Though the big-band era was a few years before my time, I groove on it. Spent over 40 years as a DJ/Producer in broadcasting including over 4 years in Minneapolis/St. Paul. In that time, I worked with everything from Clical to Country and yes even 3 years doing a morning show that featured a lot of 40s thru early 60s music. Didn't get really heavy into early rock music from the late 50s but liked material by Dion, Bobby Darin, Everly Brothers, Tokens, The Browns and The Fleetwoods. Favorite era was 1959-1968, especially up to 1966. Gene Pitney, Bobby Vee, Brenda Lee, Drifters, Ben E. King ("Spanish Harlem"...written in part by Phil Spector..."Stand By Me"...one of my absolute faves) and of course the Beatles though my all-time fave group was the Moody Blues. Now, I get into a little of everything but Rap. Can't stand it. Haven't been a DJ for over 6 years but I have operated a recording studio since 1966 so I'm still active in the music business. I have an extensive music collection and put well over 300 of the best tunes from about 1950 thru 1971 on a series of CDs I call "Boomer's Gold". Right now I'm working on the last 2-album set called "Flowers and Gr" with the best of 1965-1967...the "Hippy" culture. And yeah, Yippy, Yippy, Yippy, I am an aging Hippy, but only in spirit because I never got into the drug scene though I have been known to do herb superb from time to time! Beats the heck out of rotting your body on meth, coke or H. Sheesh, those are true maroons. Also did acid three or four times in the early 70s. Very interesting, but after my final trip which lasted 3 days, decided not to go there anymore. Still like the music though because I was at the Monterey Pop Fest in '67, and you talk about the music being a window to the past. Even to this day when I hear some of the songs by Jefferson Airplane, The Who, Mamas And Papas or the ociation, I'm right there back in California on a picture perfect day with the music, the insense and the "gentle people with flowers in their hair" (Scott McKensey..."SanFrancisco" another fab tune).
