Elvis :-D Need we say more? His style of music, combining the black and white music of his day had the parents worried and America on alert. As a child of the 50s I remember being sold on Elvis and not noticing his olive skin and blue eyes being anything diffrent than the looks of my own family.
Where would we be without the Father of Bluegrass, Bill Monroe. Without Bill Monroe recording his early music in the 1920s Bluegrass may be still looked at as too ethnic. One of the good things about the Musical world in general is the way music is a living language and can be a living legacy from where we came and where we are headed.
