Believe it or not, this youngin' knows most if not all of the songs mentioned, AM radio, etc...I was brought up on the classics (cough.)  ;) Some of my favorite moments on the series (aside from J&B's various ventures) are when they play an interesting selection on the blue whale jukebox... ;D
Great topic, Sandor!   :-*

I remember Julia being partial to 40's Big Band music. That style was playing on the radio when Julia was down in the Old House basement, working on the infamous "experiment".... soon to meet Tom Jennings.

Ah yes, but I think that was a tape recorder and it was actually Lang's recorder, remember [spoiler]she kept turning it off right before his cryptic message regarding Barnabas and Adam both surviving the experiment.[/spoiler]Anyway, guess he too was partial to Big Band music.  ;)

The music on Lang's tape is Mozart...

You are correct sir!  I think the music that the other poster and I were thinking of was when [spoiler]Julia was working on HER experiment to cure Barnbas.  I now recall her listening to a radio then and that it was big band.[/spoiler]

Yes, I remember AM and transistor radios, and losing my earplug and putting my radio under my pillow at night ...

Hey....you had an earplug??  LOL

I always listened to good ole Cousin Brucie on WABC out of NY.  He called everyone "cousin".  How appropriate!  (many of us considered ourselves cousins from Collinsport)  I remember at the point where they were playing Quentin's Theme an awful lot - that was way high up on the charts.

Of course long before that time, being the progressive, enlightened person I was  ::)  heh...
I was listening to WNEW FM - 102.7 -- they were playing Hendrix, Richie Havens, Joplin, a lot of Stones, Joni Mitchell, etc. etc.
I was not above, however, taking a stroll down W. 53rd to ogle the little yellow building with awe and wonderment.  My best friend and I KNEW that we HAD to get in there somehow.....some day....

So, Connie- did you get inside "that little yellow building"?

"Come on, let's go, go, go, what a groovy show- come on let's go, go, go

with Cousin Brucie!" (a tip of the hat to The Four Seaons)

Yes, yes I did.  It's a fond memory that still brings a smile to my face.
And it was definitely the high point of THAT year.
