Westfield Historical Society Presents: History of Billboard 100 Music Event

On the afternoon of Saturday June 11th from 3:00-5:00 pm the Westfield Historical Society will be hosting a fun music event with a good touch of history, to be held on the lawn at the Reeve History and Cultural Resource Center located at 314 Mountain Avenue, Westfield.
We are delighted to have Al and Efrat, from the local band The Fine Line performing “The Story of the Billboard Hot 100 in Song and Word.” Their performance will trace the history of the Billboard 100 – the music industry standard for charting recorded music since the inception of the Billboard (a printing company) at the end of the nineteenth century. The band, which many of you will be familiar with from their regular Saturday evenings at 16 Prospect in downtown Westfield, will “sing” the story of Billboard through the music of some of the greatest #1 songs of all time! This includes a special treat for Westfielders as included in the line-up is “Younger Girl” – a 60s hit from “The Critters” – a local Central Jersey band with a strong Westfield connection. Come to the event to find out more!
Please pre-register for this fun event by calling 908-654-1794 or by e-mail to westfieldhistoricalsociety@gmail.com.
Admission is a $5 donation to the Westfield Historical Society at the door. Light refreshments will be available for sale.
