Here are some of the key features of SuperOldies.com: 


* Constantly growing database of tracks.
The current library boasts 14,000+ songs from over 4500 artists
and adding to that number weekly. 


* User Friendly 64 kbps
Since half of our tracks are in mono anyway,
we stream in 64 kbps speed mono,
meaning less buffering for the listener as well.

* Best sources used for airplay.
We prefer CD sources off master tapes. We are constantly upgrading
songs if they become available on a commercial CD.
Since much of our playlist is not available on CD, we have
meticulously restored many of the tracks you hear off of vinyl.
No clicks, pops, hiss or crackle.
We've helped keep eBay in business!


* No repeats in over a 3 week period.
You could listen for 24 hours straight, 7 days a week, and not
hear the same song again. Oldies radio can't touch us!!


* Artist endorsed.
You'll hear the actual hitmakers make our unique Station IDs,
do song introductions, and participate with our specialty shows.
No other station offers so much artist involvement.


* No babbling DJs or ads. Less talk - more rock!
What a relief...non-stop music with vintage commercials mixed in. 
Memories, music & more memories


* Overplayed oldies are OUT
That's right. The 200-300 songs you hear your local radio
station play over & over are just that...overplayed.
You're sick of them - we're sick of them, 
and they're not in our rotation!

There were 90 more chart positions each month besides the Top #10...HELLO!?


* WIDE variety.
We cater to ALL music lovers, not just one or two genres.
We'd like to think our listeners are more open-minded than that!
You'll hear all styles of songs within an hour time frame...and lots of them.
Approx. 27 songs per hour, double the amount that typical radio stations peak at.


* 24/7 - LIVE
Of the oldies internet shows that are left, many are 
once a week, or once a month, downloadable shows.
Every hour, every day...we're live and ON THE AIR.


* Hits from around the globe.
Our listeners are from all over the world,
so why not feature favorites from their area too?
Besides the USA Cashbox Top #100, we also play regional
hits, and chart toppers from Canada and the UK.


* You'll hear the whole song
Many oldies radio stations chop off the songs alarmingly early,
as soon as the tag lines start. Like 2:30 isn't short enough!?
Maybe it gives them more time to talk, or for advertisements...who knows!?
On our station, you will hear the FULL song from start to a reasonable fade out time.


* Song enhancements
Not just the fact that each song has undergone meticulous equalization
and vinyl restoration, but some of those songs with low vocals, or loud leads
have been evened out. Best example is the Lovin' Spoonfuls' "You Didn't Have To Be So Nice".
On most CDs & on radio stations, the vocals are horribly buried. No more!  

Some new CD releases have drastically remixed & changed the feel of the songs.
In some cases, we have taken the original vinyl option over a new remixed version.
For example, in Canada & the USA, The Beatles "I Feel Fine"
and "She's A Woman" were drenched with reverb. The UK version is not.
We play the hits - the way you remember them.

If the song has a little something "extra" to offer in the fade-out,
we'll offer our alternate Super Oldies version too.
Example: Ritchie Valens - "Donna",
New Colony Six - "I Will Always Think About You", 
and The Beach Boys - "Barbara Ann"
now have their complete endings that were once faded out.

 All of the songs are crossfaded too, there is no dead air between tracks.

So who's behind this wonderful quest to deliver the greatest songs of all-time over the net?
 The sometimes frozen, yet fun & pine filled tundra of Northern Minnesota is where you'll find
musical librarian, editor and originator of this groovy site idea - Shawn Nagy.
That's it...SuperOldies.com has a staff of 1.


Born and raised in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada he graduated in 1988
with a degree in Broadcasting & Journalism in Regina, Saskatchewan
and worked at stations CJME in Regina, Sask. and CKX 1150 in Brandon, Manitoba.
He also has advanced training for promotions and public relations
in the entertainment and broadcasting fields. 

 CJME, 1988 - sorting music, back in the days of "carts" and typewriters

He quit on-air broadcasting in 1991 and went off to be a professional musician
with his group The Shackshakers (who have backed many original oldies artists),
collecting records and CDs while on his nation-wide tours.

Totally disgruntled by the horrid format of our modern-day oldies radio stations,
he took up the lengthy goal of assembling what you are hearing:
a complete library of charted songs according to Cashbox from Rock & Roll's prime years.

Shawn has used his 20+ years experience in the entertainment field and performing
knowledge to produce various concerts & musical events nation wide since 1988.

As for the products, he handles the artwork, video & audio editing,
and general studio production for all products. He must be a budding
detective too, because he has a knack for tracking down obscure musicians
and information that nobody else can seem to dig up.
Plus, he's married.
In short, he's a BUSY guy!

As you can hear by the songs on the station,
he is giving well-deserved attention in preserving the
great tracks from Canadian artists that for some reason time has
overlooked and hopefully these tunes will experience renewed interest
with product releases - see the "Featured Artists & Labels" link.

SuperOldies.com began broadcasting via the internet on November 2nd, 2003.
