You betcha!

It was in July of 1955 that the very first Rock 'n Roll song hit the #1 position, officially kicking off the beginning of Rock 'n Roll.

Rock was being formed and birthed for years before - a slow process for sure - but it all culminated in early July 1955 when Bill Haley & His Comets' ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK went to #1 and the music world never - and I mean NEVER - looked back.

We have some things we will be doing to mark Rock's 60th anniversary, so keep tuned and I'll keep ya posted!
