America's Oldies But Goodies - the 60's seeks Rock Stars

America’s Oldies But Goodies – the 60’s is a weekly podcast that highlights the most innovative and turbulent decade of the recent past, the 1960’s. Each show features interviews with pop stars, sports heroes, and makers of memories from the Swingin’ 60’s.

Hosted by Dick Scoppettone, former lead singer for Harpers Bizarre, the pop group with the 60’s hit, Feelin’ Groovy, the conversations cover everything today’s baby boomers remember from that high-flying era: from the aspirations of the “I Have a Dream” speech and the Civil Rights Movement, the Beatles and the British Invasion, the Hippies and the Summer of Love (50th anniversary in 2017), the Vietnam War, the first moon landing, Woodstock, to the decade’s darkest moments, the JFK, RFK, and MLK assassinations.

The show’s guests include a who’s who from the world of music, film, and fashion, social and political figures, and sports authorities– their successes and failures, money and health, who they knew then, and what they think about the world fifty years later.
