4 must have hours of baby boomer music?


We having a big housewarming party in a few weeks. Mostly baby boomers: 40+ Don't want to be messing around all day (4 hour afternoon party) with choosing music and getting crazy. What are the four hours that I should have for this gig? We're talking about 5 or 6 cds. thanks in advance, warren :)

I grew up with hard core heavy metal but now love the stuff I missed as a teen like:

The Carpendars
Neal Dimmand
The Partrage Family
Gladys Night and the Pips
Mac Davis
Barbra Strisand

No offense Mark, but you couldn't have picked a more disturbing list to my ears. Shudders run down my spine simply thinking of listening to ANY of the "artists" listed. Streisand couldn't carry a tune in a bucket...and let's not even discuss Neil Diamond. Ughhh...

If the music is going to be essentially "background" music, then trot down to your local CD retailer and buy one or two "Golden Oldies" compilations of pop and rock music from the era(s) of choice (60's, 70's, 80's, etc). Rhino Records has done a good job with many of its compilations, and might be a good starting point. A compilation of oldies provides something for everyone, and you can simply put the CD in the player and hit the "Play" button. You can even set your CD player to play in an endless loop...

Sorry Palasr,

One time I had a late night party and we ended up playing the this stuff tell late into the night, singing along and playing them over and over. The people at that party some 7 years ago still talk about what a great night that was, laugh....

I listen to Jazz and other audiophile stuff when I want critical listning...
