In this electrifying rebroadcast of the timeless classic radio show, we revisit the pivotal year of 1955, a time when the seismic tremors of rock and roll began to reverberate across the cultural landscape.
Join us as we journey back to a pivotal moment in musical history, where the fusion of rhythm and blues gave birth to a phenomenon that would captivate the world. From the raw, unbridled energy of Chuck Berry's "Maybellene" to the soul-stirring croons of Fats Domino's "Ain't That a Shame," every note is a testament to the revolutionary spirit of the era.

But the journey doesn't end there. Delve into the depths of the "time sweep," a sonic odyssey that encapsulates the essence of 1955 in all its glory. From the birth of rockabilly to the emergence of doo-wop, every genre finds its place in this symphony of sound.
And as we bid farewell to 1955, brace yourself for the grand finale – a climactic time sweep that culminates in a breathtaking montage of every number one hit from the dawn of rock and roll to the present day. It's a musical journey unlike any other, a testament to the enduring legacy of a genre that continues to captivate and inspire.
