The Seeker Posted October 25, 2005 Report Posted October 25, 2005 The oldest is probably Frank Sinatra, and just Swing in general. Some older blues, too.

Nicknameless Posted November 26, 2005 Report Posted November 26, 2005 Oldest currently that I like. La Bamba.
J.D. Posted December 7, 2005 Report Posted December 7, 2005 Thanks for the timeline. I bookmarked it. I was beginning to feel like an old fart (59), but me mum always listened to classical 78s. I passed it along to my son. I used to put headphones on his mum's belly so he could hear Mozart before he was born. Some of his first words were, "Choral Finale from the Ninth Symphony, by Beethoven, under the baton of Herbert VonKarion and the Berlin Philharmonic, Angel Records."
MICKEYJP Posted February 26, 2016 Report Posted February 26, 2016 Buddy holly and Eddie cochran. Both wrote amazing stuff and influenced many,many of the top bands that came after including the Beatles,stones.etc. Cochran had such charisma.
jai nance Posted February 27, 2016 Report Posted February 27, 2016 I might go back to the thirties if it's good stuff.
jamesjohn70 Posted March 19, 2018 Report Posted March 19, 2018 I like some classical music, ragtime, and dixieland too when I'm in the right mood.
denzell47 Posted July 9, 2019 Report Posted July 9, 2019 Nat "King" Cole - Unforgettable is one of my favorites.
Otokichi Posted December 16, 2020 Report Posted December 16, 2020 Is 1914 old enough to qualify? I remember singing this in elementary school, along with "that Sicilian folk song about 'going out into the open air" that I can't find...
