Hmm I bet you not the only baby boomer here, HM don't you remember Alan Fried getting arrested for playing Rock and Roll. HM Don't you remember ministers calling Rock and Roll "The Devils Music".

BTW I am a big fan of Doo Wop (street corner music) which was the start of Rock and Roll and I do remember Rock's history.
