The birth of a ....

Some Folks want to Elvis credit with inventing rock-n-roll. The truth is lot longer than what I want to blog on, but a lot of folks were doing that kind of music. Elvis (and Scotty and Bill) were just lucky enough to be with a producer that in turn, was crazy enough to put out of record of them doing it. And it's true, the times were changing. The problem is for me as an author, is how to explain with coming across like the plot from Pleasantville. I took a little different tack, of having a teenager who aspires to be an ordinary housewife, and goes in to cut a 'Vanity' record on the day that Elvis signs his first ever contract. Along the way, she falls in love (a couple of time, actually) and winds up getting a little more educated about what we might call modren life.
