They are one generation down from the masters, containing program content only – no news, no commercials.

The “Pop Music” segment of the History is continued, focusing on 1959 and 1960, spotlighting performers at the top of the charts as the Fifties became the Sixties. Classic torch songs by divas Brenda Lee and Miss Toni Fisher are featured, while handsome young men with big hair were all the rage, fueled by their appearances on Dick Clark’s American Bandstand.
