I love the whole era especially music wise and was wondering if any of you could recommend me some artists to listen to?

Ella Fitzgerald for the 'standards'..........

Buddy Holly for early pop

Julie London--- late night listening

Eddie Cochran,Gene Vincent, (not too bad) For Rock, Jazz. Peggy Lee, Ella,Sarah Vaughan, Peal Bailey.

Miles Davis. His seminal Kind Of Blue album was released in 1959!

Cheers, got a few d/ling now

Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard! The Platters! Tommy Steele! (I wasnt a fan though)..Skiffle music.. !

I'd second Eddie Cochran for rock n roll
