Rock n Roll has always been a favorite genre of mine since I grew up in the 50’s & 60’s. My first band was formed by me and my best friend Hulus Key back in 1962 (I have another song about that subject). I thought that a small collage of songs would be interesting to do to remember that era. I decided to post the first photo of my first band that was taken in 1962 by my dad. The beginning will immediately make you think of a particular song but that’s where it ends. Thanks to BIAB for creating a magnificent piece of software to allow us to make music at a fraction of the cost of doing it the conventional way. As always I used RealTracks and Daniel Hensley on the vocals.

Remembering Rock and Roll

Down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
He met a young girl who was sweet sixteen
Good golly miss molly it wasn’t Peggy Sue
But that’s all right it was Susie Q

Let’s dance, shake rattle and roll
Let’s dance, let the good times roll
Rocking around the clock and they didn’t tire
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

Let’s dance, shake rattle and roll
Let’s dance, let the good times roll
Rocking around the clock and they didn’t tire
Goodness gracious great balls of fire
