1950 to 1955 - the "No Era" era
|
The big band era ended in the late 40's. The rock era began in 1955. What filled up the vacuum? Some mighty fine vocals and instrumentals! Let's reminisce a bit and have some fun.

That Sounds Awfully Mean
|
Lyrics sometimes are not all that 'politically correct,' especially when heard out of context. Pick the name of the songs--all of them are at least forty years old--containing these cruel and sassy lines.
