I went thru all other bands and singers, British Invasion, fell in love with the guitar solo, hated rap, cause you can’t dance to it! I still LOVE do wop because I become a Bobby soxer again when I hear it. LONG LIVE ROCK AND ROLL! God bless all the artists.

    When you think about it all started with kids on the street singing rock and roll in the 1950’s. So many of them had such good singing voices. That, in itself is amazing! It’s true American culture. No where else in the world was this happening. It’s home grown American exceptionalism! This is the music that spawned the Beatles and everything else that followed....

    Bonjour, je suis née en 1958, j'avais un frère, 10 ans plus âgé et quand il partait à l'école, j'allais dans sa chambre écouter les 45 tours qu'il recevait d'une tante de Milwaukee. J'avais 8, 9 ans et déjà j'étais fan de cette merveilleuse musique. Mes 3 préférés étaient Eddie Cochran, Gene Vincent, Buddy Holly et tous les autres. Et maintenant, ce sont mes Petits-enfants qui apprécient cette musique. Bravo à tous ces artistes.
