When it comes to old-timey stuff, I tend to be eclectic. There are so many fantastic styles of clothing, decor, music, cars, housewares, etc. that I've never been able to settle on one particular era as my favorite... and I don't think that's such a bad thing. After all, didn't someone say that "variety is the very spice of life, that gives it all its flavor?"
I thought that, every so often, I'd highlight my eclecticism in a particular area of vintage. This "Part One" post is about music. While I actually enjoy songs and artists from just about every era/genre, here are some of my favorites, and this is just a drop in my musical bucket....
The Boswell Sisters
Astrid Gilberto & Stan Getz
Benny Goodman Orchestra
The Ventures
Les Baxter
Al Bowlly
Collins Kids
Booker T and the MGs
Bert Kaempfert
Three Dog Night
Jimmie Lunceford
France Gall
Arlo Guthrie
John Lee Hooker
Eddie Cochran
Well, you get the idea...
Now, what about you? Do you prefer a particular era or genre of music or do you sing the body eclectic?
