Nowadays unless I'm on the net I can't find that music. There is a station here WCBS-FM but they play stuff that only goes back to the 60's. I need some 50's too.
Places like Live 365, Pandora, and a few others let you listen to or create stations that give you the era your looking for. So if I want to hear Dion or Duane Eddy's twangy guitar that is where I go.The lyrics are another thing. You can understand them. I know you'll hear your Bom Ba Ba Boms and your Do Langs too but for the most part you can understand what is being said.
Sooooo I am going to see what I can link onto this page 50's and 60's musicwise and write new entries when I do.

I was born in '42. My mother liked music and I was exposed to all of the pop of the 40's and 50's and I also became a fan of country. When I discovered I could buy used 45's off the jukeboxes in the 50's I got exposed to Ray Charles before he was popular, the Platters before they were popular and Big Joe Turner,The Clovers, among many others. I have always been a fan of the music of the fifties and early sixties and I have a good selection of cd's with many of the hits and near misses of the time. Also have found many good things on Amazon.com. I can honestly say I was a fan of Rock and Roll before it had a name. I too an in a time warp with music. Rock and Roll up intil the late 1960's, Country up until the 1980's and Blues up to the current time.
