Isn't it funny how our music, over time, went from the popular station, to the classic station, and finally to the oldes station??? Getting old....GP


[&o]....+1 .... as my daughters remind me all the time [8D]

But the majority of posters in this forum are playing a 15 + year old game designed for a 20+ year old operating system and has in essence 128 bit graphics.

I would suggest 'classics' is a fair observation [:)]

Would it embarrass them to tell them that this is the song that was playing when we were making you? [8|]

some very good points warspite

when i found artists i liked i dug deep and ended up with many hundreds of songs that were not on the billboard list.

my songs follow a bell curve

very few in the 50s more towards the later

very few in the 90s more towards the earlier

peak years are '66 and '67

amazing things were going on in music in those days

British invasion, motown, surf, folk, the start of hard rock, aor, garage bands, bublegum, girl groups etc.

give me anything with a beat.

Hey RADM!

not sure it's up your alley, but there's been a resurgence of psychedelic British invasion tunes. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3yqgRyHkSU

for the zepplin fans, there's now Greta Van Fleet.
Song you've probably heard on commercials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJg4OJxp-co

Looks like there was a lot of post-production "synthesizer" additions

Hi Cheesteak,

that song is great. Thanks for suggesting it.

It reminds me a bit of the beat/glam stuff from the late 60s but more early 70s. Slade, Sweet, TRex ish.

i think it is great that young people are still making good music.

i think it's even better that young guys like you can figure out what old farts like me might like.

that is pretty cool. Thanks again

I still like some songs from original soundtrack especially Death Valley from Mat Hill. As someone mentioned on youtube is like to cruise the Solomons...
I dont know if i could post it, but i play a lot of music from audionetwork.com where is a good chunk of backgrounds themes to choose from.

Anything that promotes the crushing of your enemies, them being driven before you and the lamentations of their women. Either that or Kansas.

Jesus, the first four minutes!

Tchaikovsky, Prokofiev, Holst, Poledouris are KIA. Mozart bailed out and is WOUNDED. Beethoven is shellshocked, deaf and has PTSD. The Ottoman assault collapses, alla turca fanboys seeking cover.
