It’s hard for songs to remain relevant for 50 years, which is why so few do. Usually, a song will sound cool for a month or two, maybe a year, then fade away. The good ones last.
This show features a number of classics from the summer of 1960, and all but one are classics. There’s also a pair of audio stories here, covering the lineage of two classic songs.
Here’s a list of songs that we feature;
1) Only the Lonely – Roy Orbison
2) Mule Skinner Blues – Bill Monroe
3) Mule Skinner Blues – Roy Acuff
4) Mule Skinner Blues – The Fendermen
5) All I Could Do Was Cry – Etta James
6) Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini – Brian Hyland
7) Walk Don’t Run – Johnny Smith
8) Walk Don’t Run – Chet Atkins
9) Walk Don’t Run – The Ventures
10) Walking to New Orleans – Fats Domino
11) Mona I Need You Baby – Bo Diddley
12) Cops and Robbers – Bo Diddley
