Let's Go - Oldies FV

Let's go down to Wagner's Ballroom. These are some of the songs from my early love of rock and roll music. Over the years I have put these songs on lots of cassette tapes and CDs and I have created dozens of mixes featuring these and many other similar songs. This is the music played at the local teen dance halls like Wagner's. We would walk over to Broad Street from our neighborhood to go to the Jerry Blavat record hops in the mid 1960's and dance to him spinning the "oldies" songs on this mix. I collected them all. 

We played these songs on the record player in our basement rec room. Later I put them on cassette tapes and then later still on mix CDs. I brought the mixes to some of our neighborhood reunion parties over the years and also occasionally played these songs during my barroom DJ years in the 1980's. 

This is the hour and a half final version of this mix but there are several more covering the same time period and theme.

Spotify link here but no Bila by the Versatones. Too bad. Great song. So here a link to it on YouTube.
