Cotton Jenny

Not a song.
But practically anything by The Shadows or Hank Marvin.

Used to like anne Murray as well. We went to see Helen Reddy in Bristol early 70s. Two more Helen Reddy favourites. I am woman and That aint no way to treat a lady.

surprised anyone knew Helen Reddy and Angie Baby - I have a lovely LP of hers - also Anne Murray - Snowbird - lovely LP of hers

have stacks of Ray Conniff and his singers - the Christmas one comes out every year

Probably me but if I were to list what I mainly listened to in the sixties it was probably nursery rhymes as I was in my 20s with two littlies. Jack Jones was definitely sixties, Neil Diamond and Glen Campbell may have been 70s.

I think some of you are getting your 60s and 70s mixed up :-D

The songs I picked I was much too young to remember them when they came out, but have always prefered the music from the late 50s and early 60s

I also have a lot I loved during the early to mid 70s when I was a teenager, it all went downhill after that

Can't pick out any particular songs of the sixties but loved anything by Jack Jones, Neil Diamond, Helen Reddy, (Angie Baby was one of my favourites and still is). Glen Campbell, John Denver, Carpenters.

oh - nearly forgot - Michael Jackson - "Ben"

Patsy Cline - Crazy

Helen Reddy - Angie Baby

mmmmm - Johnny Mathis - Twelfth of Never <3 <3 <3 <3

Great. I think we have the same taste AnnC <3 <3 <3 <3

Passing Strangers - Billy Eckstine and Sarah Vaughan

No one but you - Billy Eckstine

anything by Nat King Cole or Ella Fitzgerald

favourite all time crooner - Eddie Fisher

Yep as far as I'm concerned his voice still does it for me.
