Test Radio

The greatest hits from the fifties and sixties are only played on this Golden Years radio. Here you can discover, share and listen to the station that play the song you love from three decades ago. Baby-boomers and others from the new generations are passionate about the music in their life. They love to listen to the songs that were popular when they were kids. Fifty’s music? Sam the Sham Wooly Bully, Mark Dinning and Teen Angle, Buddy Holly with Peggy Sue and The Louvin Brothers Red Hen Hop. The Beach Boys are always on top of anyone’s dance list with Sloop John B, or how about a nice slow dance with the Carpenters Close to You. Listen to Barry Manilow’s Greatest Songs of the Sixties. For the Fifty’s big band/swing music was popular, but vocal driven classic pop quickly replaced this genre. Mitch Miller brought country, Western, rhythm and blues, and folk music into the music of the Fiftys. Singers like Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Rosemary Clooney and Dean Martin were the bomb. Rock and Roll quickly took over the 1950s and mixed black music of rhythm and blues plus pop. The electric guitar became the instrument of choice, and the awesome sounds of Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry and Bill Haley and His Comets (Rock around the Clock) caused a national stir.

Once there was Albert, a German prince
Whom was inspired by a Egyptian tradition and followed since
Not Brought a tree to his wife Victoria the queen
A Christmas tree as no one ever had seen
With decorations and candles, they trimmed there tree
That filled many harts with joy and glee
Visitors came from far and near
All looking at the tree and bursting in cheer
So while trimming your tree in the living room corner
Thank Albert, the early Christmas performer

TEST Facts

In 1964, a group of college students used garden spades to tunnel under the Berlin Wall into East Berlin, allowing 57 people to escape to the West. The students moved enough dirt to fill four eighteen-wheeler big rigs; one of them went on to design tunnels professionally.
