    This is the (appropriate) theme song for Andrew Hickey's addictive podcast "The History of Rock Music in 500 Songs." I'd never heard it before and wondered where it came from, before I found it here. Way before it's time.

    From none other than Ella Fitzgerald:
    "Who influenced me? There was only one singer who influenced me. I tried to sing like her all the time, because everything she did made sense musically, and that singer was Connie Boswell. When I was a girl, I listened to records by all the singers, white and black, and I know that Connie was doing things that no one else was doing at the time. You don't have to take my word for it, just check the recordings made at the time and hear for yourself."
    Of course Ella would take their scat singing and elevate it to a genre all its own, but we have to appreciate its roots. The Bowells kicked ass.

I wonder if there was possibly an older version of the same song?

    I read an article in the 80's featuring a celebrity died long before that, the term "Rock and Rock" originated from what African American men would say just before sexual climax in the early 1900's. That is why music with the name rock and roll was considered derogatory and dirty in the early and mid part of the XX century because of the connection with sex and, that is why rock and roll music was invented by the African American community.

      Michael Saunders "WOW!! THIS IS WHERE WE GOT THE NAME!?!" No. The expression to "rock and roll" went way back. For instance, there was a record before this that had the lyrics
      "We've been rocking and rolling in your arms,
      Rocking and rolling in your arms,
      Rocking and rolling in your arms,
      In the arms of Moses."
      When Wild Bill Moore and Wynonie Harris began recording rock and roll style music (such as Bill's "We're Gonna Rock") in 1947, they hadn't necessarily ever heard either of those two recordings.

      splendidcurves Elvis invented rockabilly. As for rock n' roll, no one man invented that. But rock n' roll came to be a definitive genre in 1956-7 and Elvis was the main contributor for the separation of rock n' roll from blues and country music into its own genre. He was also by far the person most responsible for the popularization of rock n' roll. The careers of Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, etc. depend on Elvis popularizing them then and even now. The only person from the 50's to graduate into long-term fame on his own without the help of Elvis was Johnny Cash and James Brown. Rock n' roll before Elvis, Chuck and all those guys was upbeat r&b, it wasn't its own genre quite yet.

      Little Jimmy Scumbag During the 1956-1959 period Elvis was the most popular rock and roll artist and the most popular rockabilly artist. Does that somehow mean he "invented" rockabilly? Nope. What do you think is important about what you call "the separation of rock n' roll from blues"? Why were the Dominoes ("Sixty-Minute Man") promoted in print as the "greatest Rock and Roll performers in the world" in 1951 if rock and roll wasn't a genre in 1951?

      Joseph Scott Elvis invented rockabilly is 1954 at Sun Studios. But nice try again. Most historians agree that Elvis was the definitive force to Rockabilly music. You're just a racist, nothing more, nothing less. You just try to polish up your comment to sound subjective. Keep giving me blues songs and I'll keep giving you jazz songs. That won't make either rock n roll.

      Little Jimmy Scumbag "Elvis invented rockabilly is 1954 at Sun Studios." At another video you just wrote to me that rockabilly is music that sounds like Elvis. Under that pointless circular definition, of course Elvis invented "rockabilly" (music that sounds just like himself). But really "rockabilly" described music that combined rock and roll with "hillbilly," and white artists such as Bill Haley, Hardrock Gunter, and Curtis Gordon were all recording rock and roll mixed with hillbilly before 1954.

    Infuriate your pals by showing them that the first rock and roll record was by a 1930s era girl vocal group.

    This was staged with all three sisters seated in a prop rowboat because lead singer Connee Boswell was a paraplegic and was in a wheelchair in real life.

      Connee was not a paraplegic. She simply was unable to walk.

      It's rather hard to be in a rowboat while standing. That's why all three are sitting. It's the normal posture in that kind of craft.

      @hebneh Před 3 lety +1

      @@timcarr6401 Yes, but the reason for having them in a rowboat in the first place is because Connee couldn't stand up.

    This is FABULOUS! What's happened to us? We have completely lost this sense of style and sophistication. It used to be that you didn't step out of your house without wearing a respectable outfit. Now, it seems flip-flops and ratty jeans are de rigeur.

    Can anybody figure out what they are saying at the very beginning? It sounds a little like "son of a gun, rock and roll, son of a ..yeah!" That doesn't make a lot of sense. Anybody figure it out?

      You're makig the assumption that all blues recordings are unhappy. They'rr not. Check out on You Tube the music of "Mr Blues," Wynonie Harris, such as his 1948 #1 R&B hit version of "Good Rockin' Toinight."
