On the occasion of my 66th Birthday ! I'm gonna play a 1955 song which became the 1st number one rock and roll hit ever, this is where it started on the year I was born. Strangely this song, which was recorded as a B side to thirteen women in 1954 and didn't sell well, (75,000 copies), but went on to be a #1 hit after this B side was used in the movie The Blackboard Jungle with Glenn Ford in 1955. It spent a total of eight weeks at number one and was in Billboards top 10 for over 6 months and sold millions of copies. This must be why I love rock music being born on the year that it started it's climb into history
