There used to be great radio shows where they did horror stories, and Westerns, and comedies. Yeah, see? Now you can download all of 'em as podcasts. Here- you listen! That's awful!
The crap that kids listen to today, and call music … ugh!Give me some Billy Idol, Beach Boys, Queen, George Thorogood and the Destroyers, Irish rovers, Harry Chapin, Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band, etc etc.
A friend of my dad’s once told me that I could ignore it when people told me that ‘my’ music was bad. He himself was told by his mother that all his Tommy Dorsey records were of the Devil. Mostly ‘cause they weren’t her generations music. His generations wasn’t so happy about Rock and Roll. My dad’s generation hated the splintered genres or Rock that I listened to. Unfortunately, all this means that everyone is doomed to grow up and think of the next generation’s music as trash. ‘Cause it’s not OUR trash.
Yep. I set my computer up to record 8 hours of shows from the likes of yesterdayusa.com, 1710 Antioch, etc. every day. I end up deleting a bunch of junk I can’t stand listening to, stuff I’ve already heard, and a whole lot of programming I just don’t have to time to listen to.

It’s actually great. I love being able to listen to the old classic (and not so classic) radio shows.

Just like with any other medium, all shows from the Golden Age of Radio are not equal.

Many, like “The Lone Ranger”. Made the move to television.

I like all the old science fiction shows, myself. Trying to get into all the old horror shows, now, but I can’t get as enthusiastic about them.

A lot of 20 somethings and under don’t know what traditional radio shows are.

Those old “classics” are never quite as good as you remember them to be, are they?
