Product Information
A guide to the world of rock; its origins, the singers, songwriters, studios, statistics, one-hit wonders, cover versions, great gigs and much, much more...Did you know that? A rhythm and blues song entitled 'Rock and Roll' was released in 1949 by boxing champ-turned-saxophone star Wild Bill Moore. The first major hit single to have rock and roll in its title wasn't actually a rock record, but an early cash-in on the new craze by ex-Glenn Miller vocalist Kay Starr. Released in January 1956, 'Rock And Roll Waltz' topped the charts on both sides of the Atlantic. !!! Ideal all-year-round gift for rock fans of all ages - education for the young, nostalgia for the young at heart.Product Identifiers
