You know, many people will say that Elvis was the most important person who invented Rock.
The thing is, while I like a bit of Elvis like pissed on New Years eve but not at home if you get me and he is dated, I have to say that all the old people say that when he came on the screen it was just like God had arrived.
He was so different and unique as an act.
Pioneers are great but what I mean is what changed the world?
I would say Elvis, psychedilic movement as some right wing in the sates blame the liberalisation for all the problems today seriously they do and they have a point about family values.
But to me it was punk because it made so many bands just strum away and play both here and over the pond and it was political and artful and music and the full package and I was only 5 in 79 so I can only go on what I read and learn.
