My good friend Eddie Greely made a very good living doing this up until he passed about 3 years ago. Some talk about volunteer freebies but here at the big assisted living places they pay about $200

Regional is important but here in SoCal, it's all 40's and 50's WWII type stuff but not 50's rock and roll. Sinatra, Sinatra and more Sinatra plus Bobby Darrin, Dino, Perry Como, Wonderfull World and even the early Elvis ballads, all of Ray Charles's country stuff, lots of big band ballads, all that kind of thing. You're 47 so it's your grandparents stuff, not your parents. Like was said above, just realize the average age and then think about what was a hit when they were in high school into their early 20's.
