Tunes for yours truly and other oldies (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

melodies

'tunes' is the definition.
(I know this)

'yours truly and other oldies' is the wordplay.
'yours truly' becomes 'me' (the person that set this crossword).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'other' indicates an anagram.
'oldies' with letters rearranged gives 'lodies'.
'me'+'lodies'='MELODIES'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for melodies that I've seen before include "pleasant airs" , "Airs, tunes" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
