For Fans of Vintage Fifties Culture: Postwar Youth Gangs, 1950's-era Street Crime, and Rock n' Roll. The YouTube link for this new and FREE educational history documentary, "THE 1950's: JUVENILE DELINQUENCY AND THE SHAPING OF ROCK N' ROLL," is below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuT5Wn75HUQ&t=4226s The title pretty much tells you what it's about! From Gene Vincent performing at a 1957 youth rally to combat gang violence as a response to the murder of a Chicago honor roll student, to Alan Freed's disastrous 1958 Boston concert, to Dick Clark's introducing of parent-approved clean-cut teen idols in the wake of the murder of a foreign exchange student at the University of Pennsylvania after a local dance party, this is the complete history of the "juvenile delinquency hysteria" linked with the 1950's mainstream's opposition to rock n' roll. We also show however, how the narrative of the 1950's juvenile delinquent was transformed into the campy, sanitized, family friendly (and entirely fictional) "greaser" of the 1970's "Fifties Nostalgia Fad," in order to sell repackaged rock n' roll as "oldies." This is a rock n' roll documentary unlike any other. Copy and paste the title, "THE 1950's: JUVENILE DELINQUENCY AND THE SHAPING OF ROCK N' ROLL" into the YouTube browser's search engine to access the documentary for free viewing. #1950s #1950sfashion #1950sstyle #1950sdress #1950svintage #1950srocknroll #1950sgangster #1950sjuveniledelinquent #1950sjuveniledelinquents #1950sgang #1950sgangmovies #1950sgangsters #fifties #fiftiesstyle #fiftiesfashion #fabulousfifties #jamesdean #westsidestory #alanfreedrockandroll #alanfreed #genevincentandhisbluecaps #dickclark #americanband #rockabilly #fiftiesnostalgia https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ515ZLLnf0/?utm_medium=tumblr

The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Rock [NEW 1978 Edition] - Carole King. Born Carole Klein in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, NY, in 1942, she was able to play piano from the age of four. When she was 14 she used to hang around stage doors and dance in the aisles at #alanfreed ‘s #brooklyn rock ‘n’ roll shows. 1) #caroleking . With husband #gerrycoffin , she wrote a whole string of #60s pop classics; in #theseventies she was in the vanguard of the #singersongwriter boom. 2) Early Carole King. (Tapestry was another album our Mom had at the stereo console. Played it so much and knew all the words back then in the early #70s - Smackwater Jack...) #rockandroll #oderecords https://www.instagram.com/p/CIEJ9PaLija/?igshid=9lay5yt33odb

Alan Freed (Disc Jockey, 1922-1965)
"Freed, the DJ who gave rock 'n' roll its name, fronted Moondog's Rock'n'Roll Party at Cleveland's WJW radio station, where he programmed mainly black R&B plus some early white rock 'n' roll records. His vocal jive delighted his audience, and he also appeared in several early rock 'n' roll exploitation movies, including Rock Around The Clock, Rock, Rock, Rock (both 1956) and others. He accepted a songwriting credit on Chuck Berry's 'Maybellene' in exchange for helping to make it a hit, and was accused of payola, after which he died an alcoholic accused of income tax evasion." - Michael Heatley, The Definitive Illustrated Encyclopedia of Rock (2006)
