    Recently I've started to really like this time period of music especially in black culture. some of my favorites are

    Sam Cooke, The Temptations,The Supremes, Otis Redding.

    some more rock instead of soul singers that I enjoy

    Little Richard, Buddy Holly, and of course Elvis

    anyone else actually appreciate this time period still.

      Absolutely. '50s/early '60s rock is my guilty pleasure.

        No guilt here when it comes to that stuff, just pleasure. Early rock wise my all time favorites are Bo Diddley and Jerry Lee Lewis.

        When it comes to soul and r&b I like Wilson Pickett who I was lucky enough to get to see in concert before he died, Otis Redding and Dusty Springfield.

          duh.
          only the best/most inspiration period in the history of rock and roll.

          I meant to write inspirational.
          I drank a few beers tonight. Maybe I still misspelled it...

            Sam Cooke was good and I like "Sitting by the dock of the bay" by Otis Redding.

              well i figured alot of people enjoy this music, but as for people my age...they dont really understand the impact that these musicians had and I wasnt sure if other teenagers care for it.
