Default The Inkspots from the 40's

I don't know about you but I like to play a few fps shooters on PC.

One of these, Fallout 3, is set post 1930's after a nuclear war, you were born inside a 'vault' (underground radiation shelter) and have escaped in your late 20's into a world that hasn't advanced since the 1930's.

Some of the music you can hear on the radio is from a band called the Inkspots of which the last band member died in 1995.

The music has a special character to it, originally I thought it was music composed especially for the game.

One of my favourite tracks it this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKbSW...eature=related

Maybe you have to play the game to appreciate it, but it's got me hooked

I hear you dude, playing the expansion packs on PS3 at the moment. The music really helped set that game apart from anything else... Retro-futuristic post apocolyptic goodness..

I downloaded the Galaxy News Radio soundtrack, have got some weird looks from friends when I pump up "Anything Goes" in the car.

That song is one of my favourites, but it was only performed by The Ink Spots, it's not that they've written it
