Thanks for stopping by! The Retro Attic is your 24/7 listener-supported internet radio guide to the 50's through the 70's. We play lost and classic top 40 hits, but we also place a heavy emphasis on the minor charters and non-charters...or as we call them, bottom 45's. Special Mixcloud shows will be announced as time permits. If you have a general suggestion, then please use our chat widget in the lower right corner or the below contact form. If you have a song request, then please use the below Song Request Form; your request will be automatically queued for play in 90 minutes if it is already in the station's inventory or else I will receive an e-mail copy of your request. Please read the "New Request Policy" post in the below blog for more information on requests as I have new rules for those who are willing to be sponsors and for those who are non-contributors.

If you appreciate what we do, then please make use of our PayPal buttons on the site. You can donate a one-time amount or choose from 10 monthly subscription amounts; the donations will help enhance our programming and keep us on Live365.

2017 LIST FOR FEATURED ARTISTS OF THE MONTH/XMAS OLDIES REQUESTS

2017 Retro Attic Featured Artist Of The Month:

January - Eric Burdon And The Animals
February - Stevie Wonder
March - The 5th Dimension
April - The Hollies
May - John Denver
June - Aretha Franklin
July - The Beach Boys
August - Elvis Presley(40th Anniversary Of His Passing)
September - Three Dog Night
October - ABBA
November - Neil Sedaka

Some of these are new and some have been done before; however, it's been a while for the repeats. For those unfamiliar with the Featured Artist concept, it's pretty simple: 7 different tunes every day between 8 AM and 8 PM, and there are no boundaries(top 40, minor charters, non-charters, and even some album tracks)!
