When The World Turned - The Day Elvis Moved Those Hips-July 5, 1954 

Frank Jackman comment:

Sure we are today on July 5, 2015 very far removed from the rockabilly side of the origins of rock and rock (now called the classic age of rock to distinguish it from post-1964 roc and its progeny) and rock as a genre has undergone many permutations and transformations on its way to a niche in history. But for one moment, one brief moment as it turned out, we, those of us who came of age in the 1950s were present at the creation. Maybe kicking and screaming if we were boys about how we didn’t compare with Elvis as much as we slicked back out hair, moved our cranky hips or forced that sneer the girls just kicking and screaming said they wished they could take off his face. But from that moment we said rock and roll will never die. And through the good offices of YouTube it now never will. A retro-thanks Elvis even if I still can’t move those hips of mind.
