THE 2006 BABY BOOMER TOP 40

OK, the list of songs for The 2006 Baby Boomer Top Forty are in. We had a great turnout for this. The Mouse Cliquers came through with songs that REALLY relate to Baby Boomers today. Thank you, you can all go back to your day jobs now. I've listed the songs as they would appear today. Just in case you are not really that hip to the sounds of the 60s, I put the 60's version of the lyrics in parenthesis.

I wanted to pay tribute to my friend and one of the best radio DJs in the world, The Real Don Steele. If The Lloyd Thaxton Rock & Roll Road Show Time Machine could go back and bring Don into the future, he would be the one I would ask to make this announcement. Even though Boss Radio at the time featured The Top 30, I know Don would gladly add the next ten to complete THE 2006 BABY BOOMER TOP FORTY
