Well, I'm a big fan of the '65 to '71 stuff, those were my high school and
early college years.  Much of my regular listening material is from that
era.

Other than a couple of talk shows on the AM dial, I mostly listen to the
local NPR affiliate (http://www.krvs.org), with its nice, eclectic lineup
of shows; my favorite is American Routes http://www.americanroutes.com/.
