& roll. I played both thru the years, a couple of radio stations that were classic rock and the Everlys fit right in along with Chuck Berry, some doo wop music, Linda Ronstadt, the Shirells, the Crystals, Freddie Cannon, Bobby Rydell, Paul Anka, Gary U.S. Bonds, Bobby Darin, Brenda Lee, Franki Valli and the Four Seasons, and a lot more early 60s music. I also worked at rock & roll stations where I played Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, the Stones etc at 6 AM. For 17 of the 22 years I was in radio my show was to wake folks up and it worked. So I can appreciate both styles of music. Neither is better than the other, just different.
