Welcome Page

Welcome to my page. This is a Blog for vintage R&B, Oldies, Soul and Blues music lovers.
Music and information on Artists like, Sam Cooke, Jackie Wilson, Nat King Cole, Big Maybelle, Johnny Ace, The Orioles, The Moonglows, The Drifters and many many more...... I plan on adding information about the musicans and their songs bi-weekly. I will also post up some clips from retro television shows.

I will update you on a group called "Mindless Behavior" I believe they are just what this generations needs, clean, fresh, innocent feel good music. Their like the Jackson 5 reunited at age 14.

Once in a while I will add upcoming artists.

I also put sample astrological charts of Famous figures on this page so that you can see what an astrological chart consist of , I do Natal Charts, which means "It's about you". I do Transit charts, which means, "What's happening now" and I do Extended Charts which go into a little more detail.
