Hey, old-timers...PBS has got a Doo Wop special right now.

[madfloridian]

Lots of the original groups. Lots of fun to watch and listen.

1. Oooh, sounds like fun!

We're "watching" WPT (world poker tour) here tonight. :hi:

[Atman]

2. I can't stand doo wop...but my cousins were in one of the original Girl Groups

Barb and Jiggs, two of The Angels who sang "My Boyfriend's Back," are my cousins. They were always forced to sing it at family gatherings. It's about as close to "old" music as I can tolerate...and I'm pushin' 48. Not exactly an "old timer," but much of that early sixties shit just makes my hair stand on end. To this day I listen mostly to college radio and alt anything.

3. I'm with you.

Music wasn't anything till Jethro Tull arrived on the scene.

5. Jethro Tull was on one of the PBS specials last night

Something with the Stones, The Who, others...

[Skidmore]

7. Sorry I missed that. And who can forget that other great group....

"Yes." I used to listen to their music all the time.

Oh, and Led Zeppelin.

[Retrograde]

4. again?

Must be time for pledge week yet again. The San Francisco PBS station shows this regularly at those times.

6. We get about 200 channels, or so it seems,

with Direct-TV and not one of them is PBS. We'd have to pay for a huge package with a lot of channels we wouldn't watch to get PBS. :grr: At least we get LINK.

Have fun! I do have doo wop CDs but I miss a lot of the PBS shows.
