Our server took a knee on Sunday, cancelling this week's presumably-exciting edition of This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl. Since there's no playlist this week, why not slap together a fictional playlist to enjoy in its place? This fake playlist is inspired by my memories of My 1960s, and consists only of songs from the '60s that I remember hearing as a kid growing up in the '60s. It includes nothing I came to after the fact--no '60s nuggets I heard on oldies shows in the '70s, nor (with one exception) anything from the Nuggets compilation for that matter--just rock 'n' pop from the '60s that I heard roughly contemporaneously.
(Timeline: I was born in 1960, and my earliest musical memories go back to when I was three in 1963. Come on baby, let's do The Twist! Yeah, that song was released in 1960, but it was still everywhere in the pre-Beatles days.)
NEXT WEEK: This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio returns for real on Sunday, October 1st, with the 2017 edition of DANA'S FUNKY SOUL PIT! This is what rock 'n' roll radio didn't sound like on a Sunday night in Syracuse this week.
This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl streams every...um, MOST Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern at www.westcottradio.org
