A radio program devoted to the music and memories from the 1960's. The Sixties is not your typical "oldies show" - It mainly focuses on the lesser known and obscure bands from that influential decade. You'll hear band profiles, theme shows and your own requests. The show has been part of the lineup on Canada's oldest community radio station CKCU-FM 93.1 FM in Ottawa since 1984 and is still going strong.
It is available in REALAUDIO.
Tune In Every Sunday Night at 8 pm
Let the music be heard. Send in your 1960's requests:
Our next request show: Sunday, May 18th, 2008 at 8 PM

UPDATE!
UPDATE! UPDATE:
Yes, it's about time for an update - and you're finally getting one. New archived shows(at last) and a higher quality stream. Live365 has revamped their system so you now get 96kb/s streaming in STEREO. I've always offered the previous streams in stereo, since the main CKCU live streams are mono. This gives online listeners a chance to hear the show the way it was broadcast-and the show offers many rare and hard to find songs and stereo mixes. Sound quality has always been a priority with me and I try to offer you all the best I can give you...and that my wallet allows. So, new shows-better sound and a lot of great 60's tunes. All of it wrapped up in a weekly hour long show. Oh, and don't forget I like your input. Send in requests, theme suggestions and band features you'd like to hear. I'll work on getting them on the airwaves(and on the net) as soon as possible. |

| Looking for vintage radio Surveys/Charts: One of the recurring features on the 1960's is our radio chart spotlights-where we focus on a vintage radio chart from a variety of regions across Canada. I'm searching for any of these charts-and am willing to pay $2 per chart(plus postage). I'm especially searching for Ottawa charts from CFRA and CKOY-which include the Swingset, CPMI, & CMN charts. I'm also looking for the weekly national RPM charts. If you have any of these and would be willing to copy or part with them, please E-Mail me. |
