My favorite Pop Songs from the 50's to the 80's

Favorite Pop/Rock Singles
of Harry S. Anchan

Mission Statement: Immortalizing my favorite musical masterpieces and keeping those FANTASTIC MEMORIES alive

Rarely heard but never forgotten! Absolutely NO remakes. No fakes. Originals only!

Michael, your music will play on. R.I.P.

Please support these fabulous artists by purchasing the CDs or cassettes, if you like these songs. As these non-CD quality recordings are meant only to whet your appetite through listening, downloading is not an option, by design. I have tried to give exposure to many songs you don't hear on the radio anymore. These songs cannot, and should never, be forgotten!

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Without the effort and ingenuity of media inventors and makers of the hardware, the music distributed by record companies, far-reaching radio exposure, and last, but not least, incredibly talented artists, these masterpieces would never have reached us. For that, I am eternally grateful to all of them.
LONG LIVE VINYL, 8-TRACK, AND CASSETTE!
