This playlist is a work in progress with each song a vivid memory from my days working with my dad at Bobby Poe's Pop Music Survey. We worked together from 1979 until his retirement in 1996 after our 25th consecutive annual convention. Many of these artists were brought to our annual Convention, came by our office, I got to see and meet them in concert/label listening party or I simply loved their music at the time. 232 songs and counting!
