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."

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.

I might go back to the thirties if it's good stuff.

I like some classical music, ragtime, and dixieland too when I'm in the right mood.

Nat "King" Cole - Unforgettable is one of my favorites.

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...
