Rockin' The Joint - 1950's (mostly 55-59)
Today wed are hopping on board the Rock ’n’ Roll train and disembarking when we pull in to the Rock Station 1950 and taking a look around this decade of music.
This decade was the birth of Rock ’n’ Roll and we will be featuring groups from this time. We can’t take a look around at this decade with popping into Sun Studios in Memphis to hear what sounds are emanating from one of the original Independent record companies.
