Golden Oldies
It’s Saturday night again, and so, in keeping with an American tradition, we host a Golden Oldies Juke Box Saturday night on the juke box in the Daily Doo Wop Rec Room. Tonight there are 55 requests of songs of golden oldies favorites from the 50s and 60s from those who see us on Facebook. It’s always a good mix of doo wop, rock and roll, country, pop, R&B, and a little what have you. Thanks to all those who requested songs!

For More Golden Oldies Music
The Daily Doo Wop Rec Room has daily featured doo wop, rock and roll, R&B, or rockabilly songs that were hits during the first era of rock and roll (that is, from about 1952 until the British invasion in 1964). After a song is featured, it then goes into the juke box. You are welcome to listen to any of the 40+ selections there. Every weekend, there is a Golden Oldiees Juke Box Saturday Night, and the juke box is full of song requests from the 1950s and 1960s.
