      Although I was born just a little too late to enjoy the original era 'live, I still love all the various styles of rock 'n' roll, from ballads, to cruising, to rockabilly, anything goes for me.    Elvis might have had the 'big' hit with this one, but I prefer the original, from the guy who wrote it. Rockabilly at it's finest.

   'Little Miss Dynamite', as she was called in the early days, started her singing career at the age of six. Listen to this track and as she was only 15 years old at the time, you'll understand why.

   For many people Chuck Berry is one of the founding members of the 'rock n roll' era. His influence has shaped the careers of many artists throughout the years.

   One of the original stars with 'Sun' records, unfortunately the 'Killers' taste for young girls, cut short his success at its peak. When he married his 13 year old cousin, his popularity faded quickly.

   Recorded live in 'Whisky A Go Go' on the Sunset Strip, this is a great swinging rock 'n' roll number.

   For many people, February 15, 1954, marked the transition point from Rhythm & Blues to Rock n Roll. In August of that year Bill Haley recorded the version that most people know, but here is the raw original sound.
