Golden Oldies Music
This is The Daily Doo Wop’s Golden Oldies Juke Box Saturday Night number 50, which means we’ve been keeping up the tradition of a nostalgic juke box Saturday night for almost a year. It is an all-request format of golden oldies from the 1950s and 1960s. It’s always a fun mix of doo wop, rock and roll, country, R&B, pop, and a little whatever that genre is. Many thanks to all those who requested songs! There are 108 of your requests. Please click here to get to our 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.
