I generally hate typical oldies radio because they play the same 100 songs over and over ("Good Vibrations","You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling","Stand By Me", etc.).

UGGHH! I want to shoot myself in the head when I come across those stations! Sometimes I think their play-lists are LESS than 100 songs (just as bad as top 40 FM!)

Here in Southern California we also have 1260 AM; a similar format to 570 AM (but with less commercials). One problem with both stations is the high amount of what I like to call "Screeching Female Singers" they seem to frequently play.

One cool feature about 1260 is the old and new radio dramas they play in the evening(Gunsmoke, Twilight Zone, the Saint with Vincent Price, etc.)

AM radio always brings up memories of my Mom's aqua and gold Zenith playing easy listen favorites while she did housework.
