1955 is a 1998 hip hop music album by Soul-Junk. Musically, the album is the most centred between the low-fi and hip hop eras of Soul-Junk; as put by CCM Magazine "trip-hop meets folk meets retro rock."[1] As with many Soul-Junk albums, the Biblical references from which the lyrics are drawn are listed in the liner.[2] 1955 has a length of about two-and-a-half hours, which was cut from about six hours of material.[3]
