Happy 57th Birthday, Rock Era!

Yep, today is the official day in which the Rock Era began, in which rock music has dominated the Popular chart. On this date, Bill Haley & the Comets reached #1 with "Rock Around the Clock", the first #1 rock song.

About Me

Rocketman5000: I worked at KFXD-AM & FM in Boise, Idaho for 10 years, serving as Research Director, Music Director and Sports Director among other things. During this time, I researched, organized and produced several music specials including The Top 500 Songs of All-Time and The Top 100 Artists of the Rock Era. I started Inside The Rock Era in 2011 to counter the sea of misinformation about rock music in general and specifically which songs, albums and artists were the most successful. Since that time, Inside The Rock Era has received over three million page views. I am the author of two books, The Top 500 Songs of the Rock Era* and The Top 100 Female Artists of the Rock Era*, both available in softcover and Kindle on Amazon and on this website.
