Hello I'm Gail Nobles on the Podcast Oldies Show. Before I get started, I just want you to know about a Facebook page to follow calked Keep Our Music Alive. They remind you of all the great singers, music groups, and bands. That’s Keep Our Music Alive on Facebook.
From that very page, I found out about a group called Jimmy Briscoe and The Little Beavers.

In the 1970s, when The Jackson 5's popularity gave rise to many other teenage groups, five young men from Baltimore, Maryland were discovered at a talent show in Baltimore by music promoter Paul Kyser. They recorded a number of singles, starting with Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers' "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", backed with "Sugar Brown", in 1971 on Atlantic Records and then for the Pi Kappa label distributed by Buddah Records as one of its subsidiary/affiliated labels. Their album My Ebony Princess, released by Pi Kappa in 1974, was reviewed as a "top album pick" by Billboard magazine;[3] the title cut gave them their greatest success. The group's vocal harmony set them apart from the other groups, though lack of distribution left them relatively unknown to the public. Other releases included "Where Were You (When I Needed You)", "I Only Feel This Way When I'm With You", "I'll Care For You", and "So Sweet The Love".

Gail Nobles hosts The Podcast Oldies Show, a warm and personal journey through the sounds that shaped generations. This isn't just a playlist of familiar tunes; it's a curated experience where Gail's commentary provides the backstory, the hidden history, and the personal connections behind the music. Each episode feels like flipping through a well-loved record collection with a knowledgeable friend, one who knows exactly why a certain B-side deserves your attention or how a forgotten single captured a moment in time. You'll hear those classic hits that everyone remembers, of course, but the real magic often lies in the discovery of lost 45's and deeper cuts that radio has long since overlooked. The focus is on creating a rich, auditory tapestry that celebrates the "Music of Yesterday" with genuine affection and context. Tune in for a blend of melody and memory, where every song comes with a story, making this podcast a consistent source of comfort and discovery for anyone who believes great music never gets old.
