Golden Oldies
One of the enjoyable things about living in Vero Beach, Florida is that I get to hear the FM radio station, "Ocean." It has tunes from my youth and into my twenties. I listen in my car radio. I never get tired of these songs. I understand the words. Last night the Grammy music award show was on TV. I did not watch. Will these current winning songs be played in fifty years on a Florida radio station for the retired? I suppose so. I can accept, work with, and understand the modern world as I find it. I have my smart phone and computer and super stop watch. But the music left me behind. I don't long for the old days of religion or anything else. They are past. But music...I am a guy of the 50s and 60s and some of the 70s. After that, the music world left me behind. "Ocean" makes it all current again. A sign I should stay in Vero Beach? Say it isn't so.

We have golden oldie stations in San Francisco - KYA 1260 - nothing better than singing along to the radio in the California sunshine!
ReplyDeleteI will see if it comes in on my radio among all those tall buildings downtown San Francisco. I suspect AM is caput where I live in SF
DeleteIt isn't so.
ReplyDeleteOh good. I was worried. It is 30+ degrees here with north wind. it is 60 in Boulder, Colorado. I thought I was escaping winter!
DeleteMaybe too much of a good thing needs to be balanced with some clear mountain air.
ReplyDeleteDo you like to tease us....
