Renzie's 100 Songs: Retro Trip

One fine Tuesday afternoon, I find myself doing some cleaning at home, sorting out through some stuff and trying to figure which stuff I'm taking with me to Los Angeles, and which ones to get rid of.

I felt retro-ish today, so I cued up some oldies on my player. So here are a hundred songs you might actually like as well if you're into a variety of 60's and 70's stuff- though looking at the list now, it seems there are more 70's stuff on this playlist.

  1. Renzie,
    Love your list!. Please allow me to make one correction. Dancing in the Moonlight was a hit by King Harvest in 1973. Van Morrison never recorded the song. He did though, have a major hit with a song called Moondance. Thanks.
