Oldies

[msmemory_archive]

I have no problem with the oldies station playing "California Dreamin'," but I find it really disturbing that they think "Hotel California" is an oldie.

Well, it's over 30 years old (HC). I have no idea what would be a sensible cut-off date. Oldies to me will probably always mean stuff from the 1950s.

I consider the 50s to be "oldies" and the 60s and 70s to be "classic" rock -- probably mostly because that's what was playing on the stations that called themselves the oldies and classic rock stations. It's still disturbing when I hear stuff from the 80s (when I was in high school) played as classic rock though.
