This is a picture of my great uncle.  I consider it visual proof that some of the coolest things today still come from the past.

I think this also applies to music.  Sometimes, the best way to capture the right mood is to throw on some upbeat oldies.

And on that note, my OLD TIME ROCK N ROLL playlist is now up on the SOUNDTRACK page.  It's some of my favorite early rock & roll music, mostly from the late 1950s and early 1960s.
