"THE BLUES HAD A BABY AND THEY NAMED IT ROCK & ROLL"

[mortensen1961]

One person didn't move to Alabama. . . . . 

[edslides1]

the reverb on this tune is awesome. sounds like he was singin in an empty warehouse.

in '29, no less

Most people consider the first rock and roll song to be "Rocket 88" by Ike Turner, Recorded at Sun Records in 1951. But, this is a good song none the less.

UNLESS YOU HAVE SOMETHING SIMILAR TO ROCK AND ROLL RECORDED BEFORE THE 1920s THEN I WOULD AGREE FIRST ROCK AND ROLL SONG

[MrJNScott]

"'We're Gonna Rock This Morning' by D. Dickens" Correction -- although multiple sources say it was recorded in '49, looks to me like the sources that say it was recorded in '51 are correct, as opposed to Dickens' "Rock And Roll," which was recorded in '49.

@zuidwijker66 Alen freed created the label Rock n rock,and all he did was recycle Blues and C&W.He even said so.

I think Hank Williams recorded the first Rock and Roll song- Move it on over is the title of it..

But this Charley Patton song is great..

@54markl Whel bill Haley never recorded a song SOUNDING like rock n roll if you lsten to late 40s and early 50s R&B.... listen to Tiny Bradshaw, Smiley Lewis, Louis Jordan or Big Maybelle among many others....
