I think the 50s were similar to the 80s. But I won't get into that as it is considered decadeology.

I like the 1950s. I love that families sat down together to have family dinners every night in the manner that they did. I try to implement that in my own family these days. Also, from what I have watched, people were more caring and polite in the 50s. Not saying that there aren't any caring people today...because there are. But what I mean is in the 50s it seemed like people cared more about little gestures of kindness. Such as holding a chair for a lady. It must seemed like simpler times.

My Father loves his Doo-Wop and his Doo-Wop music, he listens to it all the time and he knows so much about the genre that he grew up listening to it since the late 50's and early 60's. He has a chat room he communicates with people with the same musical tastes, My Father and I also used to listen to WCBS-FM here in NY when it was an "oldies" station.

My father still hung onto the Glenn Miller sound, and my mother like all sorts.

I just put a price tag on 3 Glenn Miller records that will go out into my yard sale this weekend. We shall see if anyone wants them. Please don't ask me how much because I have priced so many items that I can't remember what I priced each item.

With my father's love for the music of Glenn Miller, it was played most of the time, and it drove to dislike that form of music, and still will not listen to it today, but will bear it if featured in a movie.

Of course. They were gone before they came into my possession.

Hope your yard sale goes well.  Are you flying solo, or is it what happens occasionally around here where the whole neighborhood has yard sales simultaneously?

Nope, but I do have a bunch of antique whiskey bottles.

Did You And Carlos used to drink a lot?

Can't say I have any favorite group but I do some Doo-Wop songs like In The Still Of The Night & Stay.

Would the The Flamingos' "I Only Have Eyes For You" be described as a Doo-Wop song?
