  7. Without Stewat Copeland's unusual (for the time) use of reggae rhythms in pop rock songs, none of us would have ever heard of The Police or Sting.

  12. "Sh-Boom" ("Life Could Be a Dream") is a #doowop song by the #RAndB vocal group #theChords. It was written by James Keyes, Claude Feaster, Carl Feaster, Floyd F. McRae, and William Edwards, members of the Chords, and was released in 1954. It is sometimes considered the first doo-wop or #rockAndRoll record to reach the top ten on the pop charts (as opposed to the R&B charts), as it was a top-10 hit that year for both the Chords (who first recorded the song).

  13. Finally made it to the #RockAndRoll #HallOfFame. Underwhelming. It's like one good floor in the basement plus a video, garage band, the walk of fame and the gift shop.

    I'm not against such places but they need proper curation. Same with award shows. It should be less about who is great but instead what's the bigger story and why do these artists, events and scenes matter. Provide multiple perspectives like a great museum does.

    It's fine but you're better off with #500Songs.

  14. "Let's Go" is a song by American #rock band #theCars, written by #RicOcasek for the band's second studio album, #CandyO (1979). A #newWave, #popRock and #rockAndRoll song, its hook was inspired by #theRouters. The song's vocals are performed by bassist #BenjaminOrr. "Let's Go" was released in 1979 as the debut single from Candy-O on #ElektraRecords. The single was a chart success, reaching number 14 in the United States and charting in multiple other countries.

  19. "Maybellene" is a #rockAndRoll song by American artist #ChuckBerry, adapted in part from the #westernSwing fiddle tune "Ida Red". Released in 1955, Berry’s song tells the story of a #hotRod race and a broken romance, the lyrics describing a man driving a #V8 #Ford and chasing his unfaithful girlfriend in her #CadillacCoupeDeVille. It was released in July 1955 as a #single by #ChessRecords, of #ChicagoIllinois. Berry's first hit.

  20. "It's So Easy!" is a #rockandroll song written by #BuddyHolly and #NormanPetty. It was originally released as a single in 1958 by the #Crickets on #BrunswickRecords but failed to chart. It was the final release by the Crickets when Holly was still in the band. A cover version recorded by #LindaRonstadt from her album #SimpleDreams was released on September 20, 1977 and was a Top Five hit on the #Billboard #Hot100.

  21. "Searchin'" is a song written by #JerryLeiberAndMikeStoller specifically for #theCoasters. #AtcoRecords released it as a #single in March 1957, which topped the #RAndBChart for twelve weeks. It also reached number three on the Billboard singles chart. Although the Coasters had previously done well on the #rhythmAndBlues charts, "Searchin'" (along with "#YoungBlood" on the flip side) sparked the group's #rockAndRoll fame.
