Golden Oldies is a general term used to describe radio stations in the United States that focus on playing popular music from the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, often including rock and roll, pop, and Motown hits. These stations appeal to audiences nostalgic for the music of their youth or those who enjoy classic hits. The format emerged in the late 1970s and gained popularity in the 1980s and 1990s. While many traditional Golden Oldies stations have shifted to "Classic Hits" formats that include music from the 1980s and 1990s, some still emphasize earlier decades. Specific station names and details vary by region.
