So many music posts, very few dealing with the 50s music scene
The 50s saw the birth of rock and roll.
All that followed was profoundly influenced by the sounds of the 50s.
The Beatles had many cover songs from the 50s in their first few albums including Buddy Holly's -That'll be the day (as the Quarrymen), Little Richard's - Lucille, Carl Perkin's - Glad All Over, Chuck Berry's - Roll Over Beethoven
Some of my friend's parents had 50s cassette tapes which I enjoyed. Personally I had a few 50s tapes I bought in the 70s, not that I remember the names of.
My local radio station, 7QT played a lot of 50s music.
