Retro iPod via 1960s
Wednesday, June 24, 2009
Did you ever have a transistor radio? They ran on batteries and radios were the only way to listen to music besides playing the actual 45 record or album on your stereo.
Nights were best for picking up the larger AM radio stations. I could get Fort Wayne, Indiana's WOWO station and they played all the new stuff. And WLS in Chicago was also good. I was thrilled and listened way up into the night to all the new music.
In the early 60s there was Aretha Franklin, The Supremes, Herman's Hermits, Dave Clark Five, The Beatles, Beach Boys, Peter and Gordon, Everly Brothers, James Brown. Good times!
Retrolife is a fun website of the good old days.

Yep, remember when pop radio played all genres of music? We were lucky to grow up with that.
