What are some good oldies songs?
The term ‘oldies,’ to me, means from the birth of Rock ‘n’ Roll in the mid 1950s to 1970. I call this the ‘Golden Age of Oldies.’ Others may define it differently, especially with regard to one’s age. Most of the songs listed below date from 1955 to 1970 but a few of them are a wee bit later than that. If you like love ballads, download some songs from the Platters, the greatest ballad group ever. Just my opinion but I think there are very few people who know the Platters and their great songs would disagree with me. The greatest of the great Platter songs: The Platters – Only You (And You Alone) The Platters – I’m Sorry The Platters – The Great Pretender The Platters – My Prayer The Platters – On My Word Of Honor The Platters – Smoke Gets In Your Eyes The Platters – Twilight Time The Platters – You’ll Never, Never Know If you like ballads that are a little bit up tempo, you can’t get much better than the Drifters: The Drifters – Dance With Me The Drifters – (If You Cry) True Love, Tru
