WELL YOU CAN GROOVE IT YOU CAN SHAKE IT YOU CAN REALLY START TO MOVE IT AT THE HOP

There, I finally proved I'm legit you guys can stop the zero charting songs jibes already. Sheesh.

Fine Connie you win, we might ask who's sorry now that we ever doubted you'd make it.

Damn rock and roll noise for punk juvenile delinquents and it's all that's on the radio these days. Whatever happened to real music?

I can't wait for this "rock and roll" crap to go away so we can get back to real music.

>>127522378
i c wat u did thar

Hopefully that Elvis punk is now learning some discipline in the service.

>>127522426
he was indeed the arbiter of taste and music for classy high IQ sophisticates i must say

yeah I'm thinking neato

LOLLIPOP LOLLIPOP
SWEETER THAN CANDY ON A STICK

Oldfag here. I remember the 80s when they were really big on forcing 50s nostalgia on you and all the fags like Springsteen trying to do ersatz rockabilly. I'm glad most of the 50s nostalgiafaggots are dead now because shit was annoying, yo.

SUGAR IN THE MORNING SUGAR IN THE EVENING SUGAR AT SUPPERTIIIIMMEEEEEE

hey if you cats are down in Queens sometime you might see this pimply little four eyes punk named Bob Christgau. if you run into him kick his ass for us. we appreciate it.

>>127522583
The Charlie Philips original of this song is a real snoozefest they lit a fire under it. Good for them I guess.

it's only 31 years until Taylor Swift is born. enjoy it while it lasts.

i don't know what kinda corn fed hicks this song was meant for but it makes you want to spit tobacco juice at a hayride

Rock and roll started to run out of gas as the spring of 58 gave way to the summer and the chart hits got slower paced, even saw a resurgence of the old guard as Perry Como, Doris Day, and Patti Page were back in the top 10.

>>127522650
they were from Ohio. that answer your question? and yes Sugartime is a dumb song but at least it's high energy (especially compared to most of the other, pure country versions of it).

wanna post some jazz LPs instead of just basic bitch popslop?

>>127522225
A OHW like a lot of such groups they couldn't follow up on their breakout hit.

THEY'RE REALLY ROCKIN' IN BOSTON, IN PITTSBURGH, PA, DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS

>>127522630
who?

>>127522735
>The song was about an 11 year old girl Berry encountered at a rock and roll revue who was trying to get performers' autographs.[3]

Doris is back for one last big hit with this snappity summer '58 tune.

Dion's first hit from April '58.

They got better and this obviously steals from At The Hop.

Also Patti Page is back in the top 10 that summer.

great just what we freaking always needed. a 40 year old Jewish womanchild singing an advertising jingle for a fucking plastic toy.

He had to record that to get his foot in the door but really wanted to croon.

Bo Diddley.

Bo didn't who? -__-;

"Gee, Pa, this pie was sure swell. And thanks for taking me to the baseball game earlier today."

"Thanks, Billy. You know in the communist countries they don't have baseball. Heck, they don't have pie either, or even any food at all."

"I'm glad I live in America, Pa."

"Me too, Billy, me too."

This mush got a Grammy at the first Grammys next year which shows how crooked they always were.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21t6uVChfL0
I'm surprised it didn't filter the song title because it sounds like a porn search term.

Is country western the last genre that isn’t polluted with Italians, Jews, and Negros?

Not of course counting when they try to plunder the shit with questionable pop covers.

boy I hope that never happens because it would be a shame if one of them ever covered this song and make it into a top 10 hit

>>127523114
Hey Georgia, I like the song. Mind if I cover it?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ng5qgynH_A

Unfortunately these unwelcome and unasked for fellows aren't done yet, they have another four chart hits this year.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngm4lXRqdS4

Classic which of course the Shirelles later covered and brought onto the pop charts.

>>127523566
Sure, go ahead. Why not? Song fits you like a glove anyway.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI3YzuzwK44
Screamin' Jay actually had another hit nobody remembers.

>>127523719
I believe this is a rerecord and this is the original '58 recording because they wouldn't have been using those 70s brass horns back then

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL4exhfaun8

>>127523752
even for 58 this is still completely fucked up avante-garde music

>>127522491
pussy shit.
listen to a real rock and roller.

IN A LOG CABIN MADE OF EARTH AND WOOD

Proto Glam Blues.

Nine chart hits this year they can't hold me back, man.

>>127523855
I never needed to contemplate the idea of that guy doing a "Ladies, y'like whatcha see" photoshoot no thanks.

>>127523707
Did I need to mention her Hula Hoop Song is way worse than Gibbs's version? Of course it is, why wouldn't it be? The slower tempo, dumb alterations to the lyrics, and, well, let's not even discuss the singing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muV5_M6cBGE
Despite being a rip of Little Things Mean a Lot and the fact that it sounds awfully like The Logical Song, this is a pretty cool little tune and this chick left pop music shortly afterward to go into Broadway.

>every song on the album has "baby" in the title
this is Mitch Miller's idea of lolsofunneh apparently. you're an absolute riot, Mitch.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RUPE2VxmtM
Also Mitch's colossally ill-starred attempt at getting into rock and roll. Signing a motor mouthed Roseanne Barr lookalike Jewish girl who also can't sing very well was a real recipe for success.

The strings turned out to be remarkably not funny. Actually even The Fish was funnier than this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWzPU_p7I7g

And now that that unpleasantry is over with, back to rock-and-roll. Duane's debut hit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQP3kklncC0
Yeah the Four Aces sucked, they always sucked, and this attempt at doo-wop a day late and a dollar short doesn't help especially when it sounds like 1955 in here despite this being a 58 release.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1mhPktmjW8

Oh so that's where the Association stole "Windy" from, gotcha. I sure wouldn't put that as my user name though.

>>127523566
>this year she also had for hits...Pick Up A Doodle
sounds about right

>>127523855
And trust me we're not linking any of them if we can help it.

>>127522355
Ok fine you're the real deal now. W/e man.

i tell you they would never do this with a 21st century pop star even if she wasn't actually pop anymore by the late 50s

>>127526567
because they're all childless roasties who don't have any kids?

>>127526610
Among other things.

Cute little song. Also something else you would never see today.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xx3RmTNHbE
so anyway he got blacklisted from the radio and none of the discs he put out in 58 got airplay

>>127526675
can't believe he still had the hubris to put that record out after he got in trouble

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TK_z73tVbgU

I fucking hate this song though.

>>127526567
man Jose Ferrer was one ugly fucker

>>127523566
Teresa was so fucking lame lol.

>>127526860
and the sky is blue and birds go tweet

After that last huge burst in the winter months rock and roll petered out in the spring of '58 and trends shifted to slower songs and folk was beginning to pop up on the charts.

>Youtube filters the song name because they think it's a porn search term
Figures.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eoW4Jflmxs
Wait this guy actually had more than one song?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWAlQIILfQQ

this one's fast thank God

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=df-vmMwUlDo
He surprisingly had more than one song as well.

Of course it was. Why wouldn't it be? And it's just a remake of her big hit.

The only Billboard appearance for this New York comedy act who sold a lot of records in the late 50s-early 60s but went nearly unheard on the radio.

Brits loved this song but IDK I just never liked it for some reason.

I don't necessarily agree with his "best pop record ever made" remark though.

>>127523855
Pat Boone is a massive cipher but he does nonetheless wield a lot of influence and string pulling power in Nashville and the gospel industry.

don't help it was written by a Shawnee Injun either, says it's what he "took up the hood for," h*ll if I know what that means.
