During the 1950s and 60s, rhythm & blues, rock & roll, doo-wop, and other pop sounds exploded onto the American scene and quickly swept around the globe. The songs of these performers still influence other artists and reach devoted audiences today. HereÕs your chance to own a piece of that history!
