The Students

The Students released two records. Rodger Ward- 1966 and Gold Brik -1967. Their song  "I Couldn't Help Falling" is featured on both 45's. With that said they have a totally different sound. I prefer the Rodger Ward version of the song much better. I also enjoy "Indiana Calling" on the flipside of the Rodger Ward 45 as well. Vinylfool did a very good in depth story about the group on his 60's Indiana Band Szene blog! Please check it out.

      Hello Skip. Glad you enjoy the songs. The Gold Brik version of " I couldn't help falling " can be heard on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quB80nNohsE
      "The Letter Home" has a folky Doo Wop slow vibe and a lot of talking thru out.

      Hi Pete.
      My Gold Brik record plays with a little background noise. The Gold Brik version of "I couldn't help falling " can be heard on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quB80nNohsE.
      "The Letter Home" is not very good. I chose not to record the song.

      I enjoyed the sound the group had on the Roger Ward 45.
