yeah good time for blues and jazz

 

Yup - I can quite easily slip into 50s mode.

There's times I wish I had a UL for those moments

 

I enjoy some of that music.

 

I enjoy some of it, esspecially Chuck Berry.

 

I can't name any artist... :H

My style is the thirties.

 

I enjoy it. Buddy Holly is my fave 50's artist

 

I love 50s...i'll prolly get condemned, but i freakin love elvis

 

fuck it!! elvis's cool....sometimes....:d:d:d

 

you're my new best friend

 

I love the fifties rock'n'roll like Chuck Berry, Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran.

 

Yeah, when I'm in the mood it's good music. I don't like to listen a whole evening 50's music though.

 

i like 50s jazz (miles davis mainly)

 

Sure the 50's music scene was coool

i love the 60'S too.

 

If you like the bebop jazz era the 50s were a great time.

I like a lot of the pop artists from the 50s. That slice of time from about 56 to 58 had a lot of creative work in rock. It didn't last long, though. Elvis left for the military, Holly, Valens, and Richardson (Big Bopper) all got killed, and the rest were involved in scandals that turned some people off. After that, pop declined into the doo-wop era until the Beatles shook things up again.

There were a lot of good instrumentals from the 50s too. I like some of the music from the beach movies that were so popular in the late 50s. 'Teach Me Tonight' was good. There have been many recordings of that tune. 'Theme from A Summer Place' was good also. 'Canadian Sunset' was a nice tune too.

For those who like novelty music, the 50s was the Spike Jones era. He was the Weird Al Yankovic of the 50s. He could take beautiful songs and tear them to shreds.

If you like rock you like the 50's. The 50s gave birth to rock and roll man!

 

I'm into 50's and 60's music, from bebop to surf to tittyshakers to rockabilly to early garage or belgian popcorns!
Got a fair amount of 45 RPM that will instantly make people dance!

Nowadays records label such as Jazzman records, Norton records or Born Bad records reissue music from this era.

Candy, I know you live in Belgium, right? you should consider listening to the belgian show of wallonia radio Classic 21 called "cool cats" focusing on this era.

 

this thread is ancient.

 

Totally, but it looks like its getting resurrected I guess haha.
