We take the Time Machine back to 1958 this time. It was a great year for jazz musicians like Miles Davis and singers like Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra. There was lots of music happening in the Big Easy from artists like Fats Domino and Huey “Piano” Smith and the Clowns. Buddy Holly dropped his debut album. Johnny Cash took a trip down the Mighty Mississippi, and there were cool instrumentals from Duane Eddy and Link Wray. It’s all 1958, our year on this episode of Time Machine.
