I have always been a music enthusiast, well hmmmm, let me rephrase it.. I can't stand new songs in any language. I love the music of 1950's 60's and to a lesser extent that of 70's. In my school and college days I would have music playing in a tape recorder. Even when I started working, I would have with me a small transistor (used to look like a cell phone of these days).
For a long time I have been looking for radio stations on the internet which would play continuous music of the variety that I like.
I found some.
- Hindi Oldies: http://tunein.com/radio/Hindi-Desi-Bollywood-Evergreen-Hits-s129208/
- Tamil Oldies: http://www.tamiltubevid.com/2008/04/tamil-fm-internet-radio-old-songs-live.html
- Vividh Bharathi: http://www.listenradios.com/vividh-bharati-online/ (If you are in Chennai, tune in to 102.3 FM, 1323 Khz in Kolkata).
Today I did what I had been meaning to do for a long time. A friend encouraged me. I created a playlist of songs in my computer. Now I have music playing in the background and I dont have to choose and play songs one by one. Ooh la la la. Thank you (rain).
