You nailed it Rob. Sounds like what I played on the jukebox and heard at "sock hops" during the late 50's.
If BiaB had RealVoices you would own this genre.
Well done!!
J&B Aww you guys are too kind. Im flattered. Rob

Great work here - it's got an infectious melody, and had my foot tapping within the first few measures. It's some great character behind it, and I can definitely hear the Bill Haley and Eddy Cochran influence here.
Thanks so much for sharing! Thank you for your support Derek. Rob

I think you were successful in your fusion! The image you selected for the track makes me want to go to the local dance hall! Also your lyrics totally capture that era's dance nightlife. Victoria has a pretty big "vintage" and "retro" community, so that sort of dancing style is still alive and well out here, and there's quite a community for it. This has totally inspired me. Thanks for sharing, and great job on the hybrid! Many thanks Ember. Rob

Damn! Where'd I put my leather jacket??? Oh, there it is. Roll up the cuffs a' my blue jeans...Nice! Now, lemme work a little dab a' that Byrlcreem into my pomp...Oh, you kid! Headed to the hop with my girl, Sally. Heard a guy named "Rob4580 and His Rollin' Rocks" is gonna wail on that rock and roll it out hot! Can't wait t' hear the latest, "One, Two, Three, Bop!" It's the wildest, daddy-o!
Nuff said? Solid, you sinners! Whaddya say we swing through that door an' hit the floor!
LOREN Hi Loren. You comment made me laugh. There,s a song in your comments alone. Thank you Rob.

I was born in '54 so I remember the tail end of rockabilly. And then of course the Stray Cats brought it back many years later. You have the style pretty much nailed I think! Good write and vocal. Hi Dave. Appreciate those comments .Rob

Yes, Rob, my comment is that you did, indeed, succeed in the recapture without falling to the pitfalls common in the "cover," as it is called. People today would jump right out on to the dance floor and start in a'twistin'.
To me, the key was the use of the accoustic strum to set the comping pace. That, as we recall, was the 60's folk innovation that marked the transistion from be-bop to folk, later to folk rock.
The vocal and settings reminds of the dance hall, even radio, sounds of an earlier generation, 30's and 40's.
These two elements bracket the foundation, the 1950's "Do-whop, Whoppa-diddywhoppa / Do-whop, Whoppa-diddywhoppa-do-whop...(rpt.) Infectious. Hope this analysis contributes to development of the themes.

Hello, Rob
A very fun tune! So straight. This is exactly rockabilly. Your vocal is just fitted to this type of songs. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
