Since I'm old school also, please allow me to add to your excellent list. I'm about eleven years your senior so perhaps you aren't familiar with some of these.Elvis, Tom Jones, Big Bopper,Diamonds,Cordettes, Fats Domino, Platters,Della Reese, Four Lads, Nat King Cole, Pearl Bailey, Crew Cuts, Ames Brothers,Bobby Darin, Coasters,and Ray Charles.

You haven't gone back to my good old days. I remember a floor model radio in out living room. The whole family sat around listening to President Roosevelts' fire side chats and then tuning in to Bob Hope,Red Skelton,Burns and Allen, The Shadow, Nick Carter, The Lone Ranger and many other great programs. All the while hoping that a tube wouldn't blow before our favorite program was finished. Believe me a young imagination is much better than anything Hollywood can produce. In my minds eye, I had a vivid picture of The Lone Ranger and Silver. I could even see the Shadow and would hide under a blanket upon hearing "the shadow knows what lurks in the minds of men". I just wish kids of today could experience the wonders of making up your own games in the yard and playing with sticks,rocks,the kid next door and your faithful dog.Sorry about rambling on, I'll stop now but you caused it with your comment. Thank you for jogging my memory.
