I just had an Everly Brothers Yahoo Group daily digest containing a link to a memory provoking youtube video featurimg a "remarkable late-50s rock 'n' roll / R&B concert poster with no fewer than NINE members of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame playing..."

I have always considered 1957 as the pivotal year in my own appreciation of
Rock and Roll and ultimately only 9 years later to Gordon because in summer 57 (about the time that I bought at great expense my first transistor radio) in rapid succession there exploded onto the music scene The Everlys Paul Anka then The Crickets then Buddy Holly. I expect several of you will enjoy this little video especially the convalescing Walter the Sober Rodent.If you go to the actual YouTube page (by clicking the more info link on the embedded display above) you should find plenty of great related videos by the artists on that poster especially
Buddy Holly - The Last Day
