  • 072 Walk Down Memory Ln - Music of the 60s - Pt. 2
    Oct 19 2022
    Did you know that the Dillards, Andy Griffith, The Byrds and Dudley Moore were connected? As old Paul Harvey used to say, ¨It´s true!¨. There were so many cross connections in the music of the 60s that sometimes it's like playing that game with 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon. It was an explosion of music and genres that came from Boomers both as performers and buyers of the music. We all share in it together.Support the show

  • 071 Walk Down Memory Ln - Music of the 60s - Pt. 1
    Oct 12 2022
    Do you know what Roots Rock is? We didn't until we did research for the show (yes we actually do that). We go through some of the most influential music of the 60s and most of it was made possible by we Boomers; both as performers and listeners and buyers of the records (remember those?). Enjoy remembering them with us both this week and nextSupport the show

  • 070 Walk Down Memory Ln. 1950's TV - Pt. 2
    Sep 21 2022
    Anyone remember Mel Blanc? He was the man behind Bugs, Daffy, Porky and many more. Without him most of the beloved Warner Brothers cartoon characters wouldn´t have had a voice. Remember him and them in this episode of TV of the 50s.

  • 069 Walk Down Memory Ln. 1950's TV - Pt. 1
    Sep 15 2022
    Remember "Leave it to Beaver¨? How about ¨Perry Mason¨? Why TV? Because Boomers are the first generation to grow up having television. We all have memories of our favorite TV shows and characters and catch phrases and I cover the high points in this episode. There was so much nostalgia there that I couldn’t cover it in one episode.Support the show

  • 068 Walk Down Memory Ln. TV of the 60s Pt. 6
    Aug 24 2022
    In this final replay of the series I am joined again by fellow videophile Jay Kassing for this episode in which we go over the TV that Boomers loved in the 1960s. There may be one or more of your favorites left out but we are generally looking at the ones we loved. If we left out one of your favorites let us know at the Patreon site. In this episode we start out with the most interesting trilogy of the 60s and something thought of as the lowest common denominator; but was it? We are looking at keeping these under 40 minutes as much as possible so you don't have a huge time commitment. Don't forget to leave feedback so the shows can get better as we progress.
