Star Time #21: Whipper Snapper
Always trying to keep this barge chronologically balanced, Star Time #21's second hour attempts some friendly over-compensation by devoting itself entirely to R&B of the 1950's. The nostalgia machine spit out no less than 20 songs for that second hour, making this one of the most jammed episodes ever, line-item-wise with 35 songs in total. The first hour is the normal '60s-'70s routine. Now here's an institution you can give your honest loyalty to.
