History of Rock 'N' Roll #002) Good Rockin' Tonight
Disc jockey Alan Freed was the first to call it "rock 'n' roll", but it was Elvis Aaron Presley who gave the new music sex appeal. This installment examines the impact rock 'n' roll's first wildmen-- Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Elvis Presley-- had on a generation. In the midst of all the excitement and controversy, rock's first martyrs were also created when Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper died in a plane crash on a snowy night in 1959. Songs featured include: The Everly Brothers' "Bye Bye Love," Roy Orbison's "Only the Lonely," and The Ronettes' "Be My Baby."
From "Heartbreak Hotel" to hip-hop and beyond, "The History of Rock 'N' Roll", a ten part documentary, is the story of the evolution of popular music, told through the music and words of the musicians who lived it. 60 min. Narrated by Gary Busey.
