I haven't tried it, but I like listening to the Music Choice Golden Oldies that is one of the stations I got with my new-ish digital HGTV connection.
The Solid Gold Oldies channel that I have has both 50's and 60's, mixed together. (For example, right now it is playing Sixteen Candles, maybe not my favorite but a 1959 song). It's not as good as your playlists and is sadly lacking in doo-wop, but it is still fun.The real oldies, Doo Wop and 50's stuff isn't played on the TV channels. Seems they think we are all dead and they moved up to the 60's music and call it oldies, maybe for some I guess. I'm actually from the 60's music era but love the older stuff.
Maybe I'll have to bring back the Doo Wop Shop.
Ah yes, Johnny Maestro and the Crests. Sadly Johnny passed last year. Had dinner with him a few times at my buddies house.
Yes, Johnny Maestro and the Crests. The Solid Gold Oldies channel showed photos of them at about the time they sang that song. You were so fortunate to know Johnny Maestro. He was quite a musician.
I saw Little Richard and Jerry Lee on the same stage, about 1960. Whoa! They are still two of my favorites, especially to dance to.Playing Long Tall Sally (Little Richard, 1956) right now. I love this stuff!

BTW, W2, with that background of dancing to this great music as a little girl, you are probably a very good dancer. Nobody learns like those who learn it young.
