Bob Oakley
Bob offers a performance packed with nostalgia based on memories of songs played on the radio during the 50's and 60's. Popular music back in the day included a lot of classi country music. Jim Reeves, Hank Williams, Charley Pride, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash and many others were played on old batteryy operated radios.
Bob will also where appropriate, deliver his own life story during which he recalls his boyhood years right through to today and his rediscovered Christian faith.
Now living in Long Buckby, Northamptonshire having retired from life as a publican Bob is mainly retired but still keeps perforning Classic Country Music with a smattering of 50's & 60's plus some Irish and Folk songs.
