The Memorial Day holiday is so so close – and so is our countdown of the TOPO 500 SONGS OF ALL TIME. There is still time to vote on the songs that top the chart – just look to your right. Remember we kick it off with #500 Friday at 3pm (ET) only on Hit Oldies

Capping off the ROCK & ROLL MAMAS WEEKEND – it’s the lady whose name even says it – Madonna:

In a few days – it’s a 70′s FLASHBACK WEEKEND – can you say “Groooovy“? It all starts Friday at 3pm Eastern only on Hit Oldies

Being Queen Of Soul is an undisputed title when it comes to Aretha Franklin, but we like to count her as one of the top ROCK & ROLL MAMAS. There’s plenty of Aretha thus weekend – on Hit Oldies!

A big success in Europe during the mid 1970s, in America most people thought of Debbie Harry & Blondie as just another New Wave band. That was until 1978 and the release of Parallel Lines. A strings of major hits after that makes her one of our favorite ROCK & ROLL MAMAS of the 80s!

Did you know that aside from being on HAPPY DAYS, Suzi Quatro was the first female bass player to become a rock star? That qualifies her to be a ROCK & ROLL MAMA in our book!

With the advent of MTV and music videos, ROCK & ROLL MAMAS got to show us even more of their amazing talents. The lady who produced some of the most memorable was Pat Benetar – and this is one of her best. Just part of our package on a ROCK & ROLL MAMAS WEEKEND here at Hit Oldies.

Ok, so maybe she wasn’t the first ROCK & ROLL MAMA, but Ronnie Spector sure helped pave the way for so many others and kept her own career strong right up until today. Here she is at her classic best:

Ronnie and all the great girl groups are a big part of our ROCK & ROLL MAMAS WEEKEND right now on Hit Oldies.

Another shoe-in for our ROCK & ROLL MAMAS WEEKEND has to be Joan Jett. Here’s her amazing cover of the 60s hit from Tommy James.

You can catch all Joan’s hits this weekend – right now on a ROCK & ROLL MAMA’S WEEKEND only on Hit Oldies!

It seems fitting that Mama Cass kicks off our ROCK & ROLL MAMAS WEEKEND – with a song that fans of the TV show LOST will recognize!  Lots more “Mamas” coming as we start the weekend in just a bit!

In case it slipped your mind, Sunday is Mother’s Day and all weekend long we are saluting those the ladies in music. It’s a Rock & Roll Mamas Weekend and we’d love to include all your favorites.
