The Old Days. No, really. Old.

So I'm a huge fan of Frank Sinatra and I'm assuming that a lot of people aren't real big fans of the older musical stuff, from the 30's to the Late 50's and such. Does anyone like Frank Sinatra or other artists from that era?

Are you kidding? I LOVE music from that era! I have a ton of big band records and CDs.

Oh shit. I love me some smarmy bossa nova. Stan Getz GETZ ME HOT. har.

*rawr*

Why don't you ladies come down to my pad...

Will you play Billie HOliday for me?

Oh hell yes! That era produced some seriously badass music.

Got tons. Big fan of the Capitol stuff, not so much the Dorsey era.
I've got an album he did with Basie that kicks ass.

Billie Holiday
Ella Fitzgerald
Ray Charles
The Rat Pack gang.
Nina Simone even.

Let's hear it for Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Les Brown, and all the greats.

*shakes booty in agreement*

Frank Sinatra
Dean Martin
Dinah Washington
Billie Holiday
Nina Simone
Miles Davis
Charlie Parker
John Coltrane

Ya'll like those older movies too? From that era?

I listen to Frank whenever I clean the house. While that may be rarely, I need to be able to sing along as I vacuum.

no love for vic damone?

Shame on you all for not mentioning Buddy Holly.... ..... well, not shame... but damn, I love BH & The Crickets. That's the music I was listening to from when I was 7, until 11 or so... good times with Mr. Holly.

uh, yes

The opening sequence to

"Son of a Preacher man" is a defining moment in that era

truely great

the ticket scalper from FAST TIMES?

heh!

let's give it up for SON HOUSE.

I fucking love BLUR!!!!!

yes to frank.

WTF do Buddy Holly and Son of a Preacher man have to do with the rest of this?

I was wondering the same.
