Jive

Rock 'n' Roll and other four-letter words

Gary Wilcox

Jive is the result of Gary Wilcox’s infatuation with Rock ‘n’ Roll. He was 13 years old when Elvis appeared on the Dorsey Brothers’ television program, Stage Show, on January 28, 1956, and can still remember watching incredulously as he introduced Rock ‘n’ Roll to the world. It’s been an integral part of his life ever since. Jive traces the roots of Rock ‘n’ Roll through 100 years of popular music in America and beyond.
