Re: [IRCA] True oldies mystery station on 850

[Larry Stoler <lstoler99@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I believe the True Oldies Channel played songs from the '50s when it first 
began but of course they were forced to believe that anything from the '50s 
is too old.  That's what the so called experts would like us to think.

 Those are the same people who say that the word "oldies" should not be 
heard on regular over the air radio and should be replaced by "classic hits" 
even though the average person calls this music "oldies."
