Unless AL has a theme set on tap (maybe we get the "moon" thing today?), our choices today boil down to

1972
1973
1981
1983
1986
1988
1991
1996
1998

Yup, Dave used to do "The 50's" now and then.  Not my favorite, to be sure, but good for variation.  It's been many years since the 50's turned up on the wheel.

Not in my memory. I think back in the early days (early to mid 80s) it may have.

Dave did a '60s VT last year, iirc.  And sets used to go back to the early '60s when 10@10 first started; Dave also used to do "'50s Fridays"

There was apparently a famous Dave segue in a '63 set: tape of the JFK shooting, someone asks what direction the shots came from and the Drifters sing "Up on the Roof"!

Slight shocker: Del Shannon, Runaway is actually showing up on the player, as is Booker T & the MGs.

Green Onions is from '62? I thought it was more a mid-60s tune.

ETA: Yep, according to Whitburn it entered the charts on Sept 1, 1962. I'll be gah-damned.

WOS to the Top 40's only mention of huarache sandals.  Never enjoyed the surf scene.
