The 60's and 70's song appreciation thread (obscurity welcome)

Brinkley and Cronkite.  No BS, just the news (mostly Vietnam, as I remember).

The only Christmas movie that really mattered to me... and the accompanying toy advertisements.

Anyone else a fan?

My wife insists that we record this to DVR every year.  We are in our early 60s.  🙂

Heard a Roger Whittaker Christmas song today, and this classic came to mind:

First full day off and not going back until the 2nd.  My poor wife.  lol

 

So, let's get into some Christmas classics here on WWRX... it's currently 38 degrees here at the top of the hour.

And for my Jewish brothers and sisters... Happy Chanukah (sorry I'm late)!

Years ago @Bob Cat you started a little music thread in the 19th hole here on WRX.

You know you had no idea at that time that you would be kicking off a true classic thread that is appreciated by so many and would become extremely popular.  I see that this club is approaching 200 pages. 💥  I have spent half my retirement savings pumping quarters into this fantastic Juke Box. 😊

 

Thank you BC, what you started has provided years of enjoyment for many of us.  🕺

Oh yeah!!  Ronnie Wood sliding the fretboard.  The boys one year further on.  50+ years and these tunes still sound great.

OK I’ll admit that I have not read the whole thread so I apologize if this has been mentioned previously…I heard Escape (the Piña Colada song) today, which has got to be 45 years old, and just today realized that the guy and his own lovin’ lady are BOTH cheaters! How did I not realize this before today? 😔
