Thanks, Paula... And as for age: Even my grandkids listen to '50's and '60's music. They tell me that today's music is 'trash.' So, that makes me about 15 years old, I guess! Cheers, Gershon

Congratulations on your win. So cute and fun. Love it. Guess our age shows when we say, give us this kind of music. Have a great weekend..........

Yeah, I lived it too, nearer the end of the Wolfman's 'reign' than the beginning, but I sure identified with him for some strange reason. lol. Thanks, Tim

Ah yes. You have brought the 50s and 60s back full swing.

Well, not quite 'FULL swing.'... There was great country music too: How 'bout the 'Grand Ole Opry?!' Now there was a super show!... I am still amazed by how terrific June Carter Cash and some of the others were back in the day. Thanks, Caren

So I've always wondered - do they eat purple people, or are the people eaters purple :)
