The music of 1954 - 1955 |
||
| I am collecting music off the web that was popular in our senior year. The songs below are all sythesized and have no vocals. The ones I have so far are pretty good representations of the originals. There are others from our era that I have found that are not as good (I could have sythesized those just as well and I can't play music. I can't type either, but I'm faking it pretty well so far.). |
