    Honor the King

    It was this day in 1977 that we lost Elvis, the King of Rock and Roll. Some of you weren't here then, but I remember where I was at just as plain as day when I heard this news.

    I just watched an Elvis special, I'd say one of his last in the prime concerts, and it was awesome! He was the King, no two ways about it, see the movies section for more on "The King".

    We miss you Elvis! You were the King of Rock and Roll!

      Yeah I'll never forget that day. The wife and I were on the road during our vacation when we heard it on the car radio.

        I was at my Dad's business, along with the daughter of a friend of the family. We sort of greived together about it. I don't remember crying, but it was very sad.

        I once saw Elvis, I am going to say it was in 1972. What a show.

          You like Rock and Roll but, not Country?
          by Bob
          The last couple of years I have been trying to trace the origins of rock and roll and gathering up the "essential" albums while they can still be found.
          Mostly I had worked my way back through the roots in the blues and gospel. The past few months I have been working my way back to...

          Why Rock only lasted 6 years
          by Bob
          Due to the idiotic racial segregation and bigotry of the 50's, and due to the fact that a lot of the great rockers were (gasp) black, rock n' roll reached a very small portion of the white audience at first. Fortunatly, along came the innocent looking geeky Texan by the name of Buddy Holly, who created...

          Today we mourn the loss of BB King, the King of the Blues
          by Lex
          It's a sad day in Bluesville. The King is gone. BB King passed away at his home in Las Vegas Nevada. Though he had been in hospice care. I guess he decided he wanted to go home one last time. If the news reported accurately. I hope that Lucille was close at hand.

          This is a really...
