This collection celebrates another notable event in the US music scene in August1957, when the TV pop show \"American Bandstand\" was broadcast for the first time. Presented by Dick Clark, it became a hugely popular and influential weekly event for the nation's teenagers, with the hot new singers and groups lip-syncing to their latest releases and chart entries with an audience of youngsters dancing in the studio. This 99-track collection comprises just about all the records which featured in the Billboard Hot 100 on the day the show was first broadcast, August 7th 1957, (apart from one title which is unavailable for copyright reasons). It provides a fascinating and evocative snapshot of the music scene at what was a dynamic and exciting time as rock 'n' roll and new teen stars continued to change the pop landscape. As always with these chart collections, it includes a number of unfamiliar names and recordings towards the bottom of the chart, of which even seasoned pop enthusiasts may not be too aware, and which will be welcome additions to their collections. It contains a 12,000+ word booklet featuring background notes on every record as well as full discographical and chart information.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElvis Presley - Teddy Bear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Pat Boone - Love Letters in the Sand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Everly Brothers - Bye Bye Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jimmy Dorsey - So Rare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Coasters - Searchin'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Larry Williams - Short Fat Fannie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nat King Cole - Send for Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Billy Williams - I'm Gonna Sit Right Down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Del Vikings - Whispering Bells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Patti Page - Old Cape Cod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Johnny Mathis - It's Not for Me to Say\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Gale Storm - Dark Moon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Debbie Reynolds - Tammy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Johnnie ; Joe - Over the Mountain Across the Sea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Little Richard - Jenny Jenny\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Billy Ward - Stardust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Don Rondo - White Silver Sands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Marty Robbins - White Sport Coat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Johnny Mathis - Wonderful Wonderful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Chuck Willis - C.C.
