Oldies: Pass the Fritos IX

This may be my last oldies round up for a while as my survey of oldies music has served its purpose and I’ve demonstrated not all oldies should be dismissed or forgotten. Some oldies still sound fresh and exciting and bring pleasure; other oldies are just weird and yet sound more adventurous and compelling than any current music. Here are some of my favorite oldies songs including British Invasion, girl groups, psychedelic, and garage rock pioneers, as well as oldies music from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (watching that groovy movie has been one of the few highlights of my summer). Enjoy!

02. Roky Erickson & The Explosives – “I Walked with a Zombie (Live)” (1979)
