Or bossa nova. These things are seldom heard in town squares.
Second Sinatra! I was born in the 1960s, but I thoroughly enjoy the standards from the 50s (Sinatra, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole, Sarah Vaughan, Tony Bennett, Peggy Lee, etc). I wouldn’t want a steady diet of that music at the squares, but an occasional night of this type of music would be very popular, especially with those who like to dance.
