Discover how pop music of the 1950s through the 1980s became the hits that we know and love during this five-week online course.
Through discussion and some breaks to listen to great music, join musicologist Gregory Leschishin and discover how pop music of the 1950s through the 1980s became the hits that we know and love. Uncover how the record charts were determined by the very few people who had control over what was played over the air, and how certain songs became hits while others flopped. With hundreds of songs getting released by many independent record labels, all seeking the opportunity to snag a hit, some songs were natural fits, while others succeeded by accident, luck, or a combination. Relive and rediscover your 45 record collection with this fun class!
This 5 week online course is $79. There is no class on April 22.
