Rock and Roll found it's
roots in the mid 50's and carried over strong into the 60's along with many wild and crazy fads. Let's take a walk down memory
lane.
Fall Out Shelters carried over from the 50's, Remember we were supposed
to get under our desk at school in case of a nuclear explosion.
Instead as teens we turned to music....... Our parents wanted to hide
under the desk.
"The Twist" was the first dance that couples did not hold on
to each other to dance. Seperation !!!!
Just a glimps at some of the fads from years past.
