Various - The Golden Years Of Rock' N Roll - Record One - 1948-1955 flac album

Billboard Top Rock'n'Roll Hits: 1955 is a compilation album released by Rhino Records in 1988, featuring 10 hit recordings from 1955. The volume is the first in a series of albums by Rhino Records that chronicled years in music, starting from 1955 and continuing through 1995. Each of the albums issued in the series included a "Time Capsule" in its liner notes

And rock & roll as an American musical form is very much like a delta, collecting elements from jazz, blues, country, gospel, R&B, show tunes, and whatever else was floating around into a high-charged, rambunctious music that defined and drove pop culture across the backwaters of the 20th century and into the 21st. where rock & roll began isn't exactly answered here, this set makes for a fascinating tour through some wonderfully cool and classic stuff like Amos Milburn's rollicking "Chicken Shack Boogie," Tampa Red's desperately frantic "It's Tight Like That" (from 1927), and Les Paul and Mary Ford's timelessly amazing "How High the Moon," the first single in the.

Golden Years of Jazz 1948-1955. Promo Sound's Golden Years of Jazz series is a massive, encyclopedic, and almost exhaustive year-by-year chronological history of jazz from 1917 to 1955, broken down into three eight-disc sets. It's hard to quibble with such an undertaking, and any collection that can move from James P. Johnson through to the Jazz Messengers without missing a single developmental step deserves a tip of the hat. Jazz is such a deep and wide pool, though, that even such a massive collection as this one still feels a bit like a CliffsNotes version of the genre

This 3CD set attempts to map out the most exhaustive pre-history of rock'n'roll so far committed to one album, and for the most part it does a pretty decent job, tracing the line back as far as the 1916 "The Camp Meeting Jubilee", a pre-blues minstrel-tent recording of such scratchy authenticity it sounds like a parody

Atlantic Records scores its first record in the decade it would come to define musically with Ruth Brown's "Teardrops From My Eyes", the biggest R&B hit for a female artist for the next 40 years. In the first move to tame down rock 'n' roll by society ABC television launches the national version of a Philadelphia program called "American Bandstand" which winds up promoting the more wholesome side of rock. The Everly Brothers hit "Wake Up Little Susie" is banned from the airwaves in Boston for lyrical content.

The very first Rock and Roll record is in my opinion the SUN-records single " That's allright, Mama, Blue moon of Kentucky " by Elvis Presley from 1954. Louis Jordan was definitely one of the very first musicians who recorded music in the Rock 'n' Roll style in the early 1940ies, though the term of 'Rock 'n' Roll' at that time was not coined yet! The term is said to be coined by Alan Freed later in the 1950ies. The Beatles were in their early years no more than a " cover " band of Rock and Roll ( and in my opinion a not that good coverband ). They really don't belong here!
