    True. 

    The difference for me in radio today is the lack of great DJ's like Wolfman Jack, "Big Daddy" Tom Donahue, John Peel, Murray The K, Alan Freed, Abe "Voco" Kesh, and Dusty Street, among others.

    For me, radio is dead.

    Bingo! And it's always the same commercials on repeat.

    Agreed! 

    And channel 70 becomes a heavy favorite (guilty pleasure) of mine during the summer's. I love me some yacht rock radio!

    :lol: 

    Actually my father (who we called Pop) did have a thing for Chevy's for several years- The first one I can remember was this late 40's old flat black battle-axe Chevy of some kind.  Our black cat, Ebony, crawled under the hood one night to get warm and got caught in the fan blade the next morning.  She turned mean and we had to have her put down.  I cried and cried!  Next one I can remember was a '56 sedan.  I believe it was a One-Fifty in this gawd awful two-tone grey and peach colored.  Next up was a '64 Chevy II, no thrills but a really cool light blue metallic  color.  When that one wore out the next up was a '72 Chevelle in a metallic gold.  I think that was Pop's mid-life crisis years, lol.  I borrowed it  one night to go to work, called in sick, and took my girl friend  to the old Fillmore West to see Larry Coryell and got it banged up.  Hell to pay!  After I left home I bought a '65 Malibu that was sweet!  Metallic midnight blue, big wheels, air shocks.  Only a small block 8 but plenty of get up and go.  Lots of fun!

    But as for music- no, no Bill Haley and the Comets.  Back then with Pop at the wheel of the car or TV shows it was all Glen Miller, Bing Crosby, Ed Ames, Johnny Mathis, Harry Belafonte, and, of course, Lawrence Welk.  "Anna wan, anna two..."

    Now here's a bizarre side note:  My old brain couldn't come up with a few of those names so I went to Wikipedia and looked up "crooners"  Listed among those "crooners"- swear to God- is none other than Glen Danzig.  What the hell?  :lol:
