I like Sanchez. That's All Right (Mama)" is the 1st Rock & Roll song. ("Rocket '88" rocks out, but is a fast shuffle blues. Rock is 2/4 time) Based on that (and much more) Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup (Crew'-duhp) who first began doing his music that way is (if any one-only can be named such) the actual "Father of Rock. What sucks is: Arthur NEVER was inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame, under 'Influences', even though so MANY he influenced in one way or another have been! And he never got a royalty
