Elvis' first Rock and Roll recording 1954.."That's All Right Mama".Depending on how you define "Rock and Roll" this may be the very first RR recording- cut at Sun Studios-Memphis 1954..My dad ( Paul Burlison "Rock n Roll Trio-a rockabilly pioneer, member Rockabilly Hall of Fame) said it sent a big wave over the Memphis music scene, especially within the local and regional artist, and later within the national music community. Most likely the first rock song without a boogie swing piano, but mainly recorded with the instruments used by a classic rock group- lead guitar-Scotty Moore, a bass guitar-Bill Black (stand up in 1954) and rhythm lead singer-Elvis Presley..For a complete discussion about the history and origin of rock and roll check out the articles and downloaded songs of key artist of the early days of rock and roll (go to 2010 entries for the complete list of audios) and decide for yourself about how rock an roll became such a dominant part of the world's music cultures.
