I like it very much too. My fathers generation and music taste. He was raised in Lost Hills, CA. Kinda hard to not like some oldies when they are blasted in your ear your entire life. Same goes for my mothers music.
She literally is an Okie from Muskogee (half cherokee) that migrated to Bakersfield California (my birthplace) around 1950.
Now that is truly 100% American music. No foreign influence there.
