Each Episode had a transition scene of an old singer(s).. WHO WERE THEY?


Can anyone name the people featured in those transition scene's that each episode had approximately 1 of? Some of them were easy like Buddy Holly, Jan & Dean (Beach Boys), Jerry Lee Lewis... But some I didn't know who they were. Any help??

Thanks!

Who was the transition singer for the finale?

Who was the transition singer for the finale?
The office spray painting scene featured the MC5's "Kick Out the Jams." IIRC, there was also a scene featuring Tony Bennett's "Boulevard of Broken Dreams".

IIRC, the ending scene of the season finale....features Richie, sitting in the biker bar, the same place where he kept meeting up with the FBI guys....it's the bar which will later become CBGB. Richie is talking to CBGB's owner Hilly. Hilly mentions adding live music....the rest is history.

I'll have to watch the episode again, because I don't remember a transition singer at the end of the finale.

I liked Eddie Cochran at the semi-final

A friend of mine did a re-cap of each episode of the season, talking about the story and the historical facts etc, and dishes on each of the 'ghosts' that appear throughout the show.

Hey, thanks for the link. I enjoyed reading it.

Why is "scenes" possessive? It should merely be plural, scenes, not possessive, scene's.
