Nostalgia

These are old songs that I love. And I don't have to listen to "Oldies 101" to hear them interspersed with hundreds that I hate. Notice that there are no Beatles and that there are more songs by Elvis than anyone else. I'm hopelessly addicted to the heavily orchestrated Las Vegas Elvis; none of his spare R&B or movie music. Give me the Phil Spector wall of sound or forget it. Elvis's incredible Southern gospel numbers with the incomparable J.D. Summers (bass extraordinaire) and the Stamps Quartet are on another playlist.
