ROUND 6 RESULTS - the Final 4 (in order of points/vote)

format: poll seed - year - Billboard rank – Piece – Act

4 1957 3 “Little Darlin’” The Diamonds
3 1955 2 “Rock Around the Clock” Bill Haley & His Comets

Notes:
-55 voters! The record so far!
-”Little Darlin’” squeeked by over “Mona Lisa” - difference of 2 for 55 votes! Phew! Dodged that tie!
- the Everly Bros’ duel entry “All I have to do is Dream”/”Claudette” lost out handily to ”Rock Around the Clock”; not a total embarrassment, but not real close

On to Round 7 - THE FINAL!
