1958, I was eleven when Clyde McPhatter released: A lover's question:. Probably the first pop song to grab me by the throat. Went #1 on the R&B chart and #6 on the Pop chart. Probably the first time I connected so profoundly with a song. He had a smooth and versatile high Tenor voice that was perfect for the song. I
Liked his early work with the Drifters very much too.

Hey - probably was..! I listened to WBZ primarily until I went in the AF in 1968. When I got out in '72 it was RKO and WAAF in Worcester, then I moved to Colorado in late '73 and out there KBCO in Boulder and KTCL in Ft. Collins were the best.

WBZ - home to Dave Maynard and late with Larry Glick.

In addition to WRKO, rock and roll could also be heard on WMEX

On the Night Train Show
Come on Arnie Da do di do wah!
Let's go!

Adventure car hop is the place to go
For food that's always right
Adventure where the service is great
You'll relish every bite

On route 1 in Saugus
Come dressed just as you are
Adventure where the service is tops
And you'll never get out of your car!

Song: Suffragette City
Artist: David Bowie






It's the year 2022 now - fifty years ago, it was 1972. An important year for me: my last year of high school, my first year of college.

And a huge year in the history of rock music (and r&b, and jazz) - an amazing amount of great albums were produced that year. Many of the songs that I have posted to this thread come from albums that debuted in 1972.

Here is one site's list of their top 64 albums of that year. Pretty good list, I think. And Bowie's Ziggy Stardust album is on it.
