About Us

OUR MISSION:  It is the mission of Awesome Oldies, LLC to help our customers to rediscover or discover tunes, artists, and performances that will reawaken treasured personal memories of the Twentieth Century! 

OUR HISTORY:  For most Baby Boomers (like me), the music and classic TV shows/films of the 1940\'s, 1950\'s & 1960\'s evoke unforgettable and cherished memories of the days of our youth.  As a long term collector of pop music and media memorabilia from those days, I decided to subsidize my investments in my expanding personal collection by selling nostalgic music at various record shows, antique shows, classic car shows, community fairs, and flea markets in the mid-90\'s in the Twin Cities.

Starting out at these outdoor venues with an inventory of only a few hundred CDs on a couple of tables set up under a single 10\' X 10\' pop-up tent, we now inventory over 10,000 products that are showcased under several tents covering an area of over 40\' X 20\'.   We invite you to check out our exceptional variety of memorable merchandise by visiting us at one of our upcoming shows.  A complete list of the events we regularly participate in is listed elsewhere on this site.  (Even though our 2008 shows are almost over, we are planning to exhibit at most of these same events in 2009.)     

OUR INVENTORY:  With thousands of satisfied past customers, our extensive and ever changing inventory of CDs, cassettes, LPs, 45s, VHS videos, DVDs, nostalgic celebrity posters, and eclectic books is sure to contain a few choice items that you (or a friend or relative) would love to enjoy!

In the future, our web site will feature a limited number of products for sale.  As our inventory changes by thousands of products most every month, it is not practical for us to list all of our products online. 

While our site does list many of the artists and categories of TV shows/films we regularly stock, we invite you to contact us by email or phone to ask about any specific titles or categories of products that you might be searching for.

SPECIAL GIFTS:  While most of our customers are certified "boomers," many of our more youthful clients have found our vintage tunes on CDs and classic TV shows/films to be ideal birthday, anniversary, or holiday gifts for their Moms, Dads, Uncles, Aunts, and/or Grandparents!

REUNION TUNES:   If you and your high school or college classmates are going to be celebrating a reunion in the coming weeks or months, please contact us about our large assortment of music compilation CDs that feature original artists and original recordings from specific years in the 40\'s, 50\'s, 60\'s and 70\'s.  (Many of these discs are out-of-print from Time Life Music, Heartland Music, or other major labels and are hard to find.)

ORDERING:  Orders may be placed by mail, phone, or email.  We accept PayPal, money orders, and personal checks.  (Shipments will be made via US Mail after payment is received and check has cleared.)  We recommend purchasing insurance on your order.  Please note: If insurance is not purchased, we will not be responsible for loss nor any damage during shipment.

OUR GUARANTEE:  A significant portion of our products are "Brand New" and factory sealed!  Most of our "previously enjoyed" CDs, DVDs, and VHS video tapes have been inspected for defects or blemishes that might affect how they play.  Should you purchase any product with a manufacturing or undetected defect, we will replace it or refund your money.

Rest assured, 100% satisfaction with your purchases is guaranteed!
