 You can help pick the Online Boomer Top 100. Click here to vote.
For BBHQ members, we have lyrics to over 750 songs from the boomer years; they're available right here! The Oldies Vault contains the names and artists of over 4,000 hit songs from the late 50s, 60s and early 70s. BBHQ members can satisfy their curiosity and perhaps settle a few bets using the oldies vault. But if the song you are looking for is not in the vault, Ask the DJ. If we don't have the answer, one of our visiting experts surely will. How well do you know your oldies? Come play "Name That Tune." The Year and the Month will help you remember the music of the boomer years! Our Music Buy the Album section lists the tracks on hundreds of albums, and allows you to purchase music straight from Amazon.com.

The words and music of our youth define the boomer years. They stand so far above anything before... or since. So we encourage you to remember the lyrics with us... and share them with your friends and family. No parental warnings necessary; no hate music; just a reminder of what made our youth so special. We feature a different set of lyrics every week.
Our "Lyrics You Can Share" for this week come from a great song by John Denver, "Home Again":
|
There's a storm across the valley, clouds are rolling' in the afternoon is heavy on your shoulders.
There's a truck out on the four lane,
He's an hour away from riding'

The rest of the lyrics are in our Lyrics Section.
Come back to BBHQ each week to share lyrics with us.

If you like what we're doing here at BBHQ, please help us by buying stuff through our link to Amazon.com:
| The BBHQ Album of the Month is "Old Friends Live on Stage (Deluxe Edition) (2 CD/1 DVD)," by Simon & Garfunkel. If you were fortunate enough to see them in concert last year, I do not have to sell you. The concert was terrific! This album collection includes 55 songs, plus their new recording, "Citizen of the Planet," and one of the songs sung by the Everly Brothers during the concert. The DVD was recorded during their concert in Madison Square Garden in 2003. For any S&G fan, this is a must have! But then, you knew that already, didn't you? |

The BBHQ Book of the Month is
"Vinyl Highway," by
Dee Dee Phelps. You remember her as Dee Dee, of Dick and Dee Dee.
Together, they took a decade long ride on the rock and roll roller
coaster. It was a heck of a ride! Dick Clark, Quincy Jones, the Beach
Boys, Glenn Campbell, Dionne Warwick, Bobby Vinton... Dick and Dee Dee
rubbed shoulders with all of them. This is her "behind the scenes" story.
It's pretty cool.
