Golden Oldies Requests

It’s Saturday night, and that means another all-request Golden Oldies Juke Box Saturday Night. It’s always a fun mix of songs from the 1950s and 1960s (mostly). It goes beyond doo wop music to include many genres — rock and roll, rockabilly, country, R&B, pop, and a little what have you. Many thanks to all those who requested songs! Here are 87 of your requests. Please click here to get to our Daily Doo Wop Rec Room, and then click on the juke box to access the 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 Oldies Juke Box Saturday Night, and the juke box is full of song requests from the 1950s and 1960s.
