[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, oldies is a particular format that means music from the 50s and 60s, sometimes the 70s, but not the 80s. It doesn't just mean "old music." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldies[/quote] But if radio in the 1980s boasted about playing 40-year-old music, they'd have played Big Band tunes, not Madonna and Michael Jackson and Pet Shop Boys![/quote] True, but the development of rock and pop was really revolutionary and broke with what came before. There's more continuity between Madonna and today than between Madonna and Benny Goodman, so she still gets played.[/quote]
