Tony Starlight's AM Gold Seventies Soft Rock Show
Tony Starlight Showroom, 1125 SE Madison, Suite 103G, Portland, OR
Party like it’s 1979! A soft-rockin’ tribute to the greats of the AM Dial in the ‘70s. Why Seventies Soft Rock? “The radio was the soundtrack to the 1970s, the era in which I grew up.” “Not every radio had FM capabilities, especially in cars. The AM dial was played in stores and restaurants and in the Country Squire Station Wagon that I rode in, sans seat belts. I absorbed these songs and they are a part of me. A few lines of ‘Rocket Man’ and I’m taken back to a time of polyester, bell bottoms and Evel Knievel.” “We are always shocked at how the audience seems to know all the words to every song in our playlist. To hear the crowd sing “even though we ain’t got money, I’m so in love with you honey” or “give me the beat boys and free my soul, I wanna get lost in your Rock n’ Roll and drift away” is magical. It’s like a big campfire sing-along, K-Tel style!” -Tony Starlight, AM Gold Seventies Soft Rock Show What started as a monthly Neil Diamond Tribute has grown into a soft rock explosion! Tony Starlight makes an evening out of performing songs from the stalwarts of the AM dial in the 1970s.
