Annmarie got it right 1st

I'll let a few more people try.........answers tomorrow.

For the first question, it is probably none of the above. Rock around the Clock is probably the first rock and roll song,
Rocket 88 is a rythym and blues song, it wasn't a rock tune although it influenced future rock.

For the second question it is also probably none of the above. the only person that I know that had a multi-million dollar fit in 1956 would have been Marilyn Monroe.

The third question I have no idea,, I could care less about some sissy-boy teen idol.

So where are the answers already????

Hang onto your underwear I wanted to give everyone a chance.

First rock and roll record, is a trick question
its subjective, but all those hits were milestones....Good Rockin Tonight was recorded in 1947 by Wynonie Harris, a wild party animal with a sexy image. With Rockin in the title and a rock star behind the make-could be rock and roll. Rocket 88 was recorded in 1951
Sh-Boom in 54 and July 54 Elvis recorded That's all right Mama-could be rock and roll.

On the strength of "Be-Bop-aLula" Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps landed a Capitol Records recording contract in 1956. The acclaimed rockabilly and made 6 albums for Capitol, today all are prized collector's items.

And of course, Ricky Nelson was on the Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet from 1952 to 66.
His first single was A Teenagers Romance/backed with the B side I'm Walkin on the charts in 57.

So the correct asnwers are A, D, B......

Maybe Annmarie and I can come up with some more
if you would like.......yes/no.

If you believe Alan Freed Earth Angel was the first Rock and Roll song
