This week on Listen Up!: Part I of a five part series of radio shows that count down the weeks before your host turns 50. The Pre-Teen Years (1964-1977) will focus on music that came out during that time frame. It will be the sounds that parents, crazy babysitters, radio, TV and curiosity that fed a young music discovery diet.
