Our Music

 

From School Dances to Dragnets , music played such an important part in our high school years ...and how lucky were we to be in school during the era of some of the best music ever ? From the “British Invasion” music of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and more....to the summer sounds of “Beach Music” by Bill Deal and The Beach Boys and others ....to the soulful dance music of “Motown” with The Temptations, the Supremes, and others.....to the softer folk sounds of Bob Dylan, Peter, Paul, and Mary, and others.....and so much more !   The music of of our teen age and high school years produced so many classic hits that are still played and heard today!

In 2010, this site had a music player that shared much of “Our Music” and allowed you to hear some of this music while we browsed the site.  But  unfortunately , due to copy rite laws , songs began to disappear and we were soon forced us to take down the player ....however, listed is below is just a small sampling of songs from this era ....some romantic, some silly, some classic......hopefully you can use this list to download or stream some musical memories of your own !

There are so many songs to put on the list that this will be a gradual process ...check back often for new songs that will be added .....if you have a special song that you would like to be added to this list, please let  us know...
