Años 1950: Rock & Roll Retro

Put a nickel in the machine. This app is a tuner for the music that invented the teenage weekend: rock and roll, rhythm and blues, doo-wop and rockabilly from the 1950s and early 1960s. THE SOUND OF THE ERA Think upright bass slapping the beat, hand-clapped backing vocals, a saxophone solo cut short by a guitar break, and a lead singer who sounds like he is grinning. Around those basics you will meet crooners, surf-flavored instrumentals, early soul and the first wave of girl groups. WHERE IT FITS IN YOUR DAY - Saturday garage clean-up or a family barbecue - A retro-themed party where somebody insists on a dance contest - A long drive, using the car screen so you never fumble with tiny buttons - Falling asleep to a mellow ballad station with the sleep timer set FINDING YOUR STATION Use the directory to filter by country or genre and keep the ones you like in your favorites list.
