the 50's

It's still Rock 'n Roll to me.

The 50's is a nice break to my usual XM routine (sports talk and alt music). The music is still interesting after all these years, especially the well known stand-outs: Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis, etc. It doesn't rate a preset, but I'll try to listen every now and then.
