JUKEBOX MEMORIES by Tony Stewart
Recordings by popular artists had been around for many years before ww11, but after the end of the war things (and morals) were changing. Songs were becoming bouncier, jive was emerging as a popular dance for the youngbloods. Teen idols such as Johnny Ray were emeriging - then Elvis arrived and everything changed. Rock and Roll was born and still influences today's music. Jukebox Memories lists the hit songs in Australia from the 50s and 60s that have survived the decades and are still popular on dance floors, ads, radio and t.v. shows and as remade hits. CLICK ON THE GUITAR ON THE LEFT TO SEE THE SONG LIST THEN CHECK OUT YOU TUBE AND THE RECORD STORES ON AND OFF LINE.
