Feb 2013

I was in high school when Bill Haley and the Comets first hit the airwaves. Rock Around The Clock was the first record I ever bought. I remember when Elvis was on the Ed Sullivan Show and he was only filmed from the waist up because in the '50s. his moves were considered too obscene to be shown on TV. Yes, I am older than dirt.
