The Basset Hound is a short-legged breed of dog of the hound family. They are scent hounds, bred to hunt rabbits by scent. Their sense of smell for tracking is second only to that of the Bloodhound. The name Basset is derived from the French word bas, meaning “low”, with the attenuating suffix -et, together meaning “rather low”. Basset hounds are commonly brown and black and most often spotted, but also exist in a variety of colors.

Description

Appearance

Basset Hound appearance

These dogs are around 1-foot in height at the withers. They usually weigh between 35-70lbs. They have smooth, short-haired coats but a rough haired hound is possible. Although any hound colour is considered acceptable by breed standards, Bassets are generally tricolor (black, tan, and white), open red and white (red spots on white fur), closed red and white (a solid red color with white feet and tails), Honey And White (honey coloured back, light brown spotty nose and legs, light brown tails with white tip) and lemon and white. Some Bassets are also classified as gray or blue; however, this colour is considered rare and undesirable. They have long, downward ears and powerful necks, with much loose skin around their heads that forms wrinkles. Their tails are long and tapering and stand upright with a curve. Some prefer that the tail be tipped in white. This is so they are easily seen when hunting/tracking through large bushes or weeds. The breed is also known for its hanging skin structure, which causes the face to occasionally look sad; this, for many people, adds to the breed’s charm. The dewlap, seen as the loose, elastic skin around the neck, and the trailing ears, help trap the scent of what they are tracking.

The Basset Hound is a large dog with short legs. They were originally bred to have osteochondrodysplasia, known as dwarfism. Their short stature can be deceiving; Bassets are surprisingly long and can reach things on table tops that dogs of similar heights cannot. However, because Bassets are so heavy and have such short legs, they are not able to hold themselves above water for very long, and should never be made to swim.

Temperament

The Basset Hound is seen as an especially friendly breed. For this reason they are an excellent pet for children. Many Bassets “forget” the training when a reward is not present. Bassets should be on a leash when out on walks.

Oldies music celebrates the history, trivia and charts of the music of the fifties, sixties and seventies. It is still alive and well. In fact, many rap artists use oldies as their background music while the rapper sings his lyrics over the oldie song…which is called sampling.

Oldies is a generic term commonly used in the United States and Canada to describe a radio format that usually concentrates on Top 40 music from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. Oldies stations as we know them today did not really come into existence until the early 1970s.

The music also overlaps with classic rock which focuses on the rock music of the late 1960s and 1970s as well as newer music in a similar style. The songs are typically from the R&B, pop and rock music genres but may also include country, movie soundtrack, novelty, and other types of popular music from around 1950-on.

Oldies music, which typically feature bands and artists such as Elvis Presley, Bill Haley, Little Richard, Pat Boone, Sam Cooke, the Beatles, the Beach Boys, the Rolling Stones, the Rascals, the Association, the Temptations, the Who, Elton John, and Fleetwood Mac, cover a wide variety of styles including early rock and roll, rockabilly, doo-wop, surf rock, girl groups, the British Invasion, folk rock, psychedelic rock, baroque pop, soul music, Motown, and bubblegum pop.

The music has some overlap with the classic rock format, which concentrates on the rock music of the late-’60s and ’70s and also plays newer material made in the same style. The Oldies return to the era of doo-wop harmonizers, crew cut folk trios, suited balladeers, and rock ‘n’ roll wildmen.

The songs encompass a wide range of musical styles. They often get dismissed as too tame for sophisticated modern palates, but for some, that’s the genre’s biggest value — it harks back to a time that now seems innocent.

Oldies bands typically perform music of the 1950′s and 1960′s and are great for weddings, corporate events, private parties, and outdoor summertime concerts.
