  • Otis Blackwell: Songwriter to “The King”
    Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum • Words & Music • Grades 3-6 Otis Blackwell: Songwriter to “The King” As the songwriter of two of Elvis Presley’s career-making hits, Otis Blackwell will always be linked to the man known as the King of Rock & Roll. But so many artists have recorded Blackwell’s songs that his work reaches far beyond Presley’s shadow. The many hits Blackwell wrote made him one of rock & roll’s most influential songwriters. Born February 16, 1932, in Brooklyn, New York, Blackwell grew up next to a movie theater and developed a passion for Hollywood’s singing cowboys and their western music. “Like the blues, it told a story,” he once said. “But it didn’t have the same restrictive construction. A cowboy song could do anything.” Blackwell began writing songs in his teens, but turned his attention to performing after winning a local talent show. He soon tired of the road, however, choosing instead to focus on songwriting while working a day job pressing clothes at a New York tailor shop. Presley soon followed this success with “All Shook Up,” which Blackwell penned after his publisher shook a bottle of soda and Blackwell’s demo tape of “Don’t Be Cruel” caught the ear of jokingly challenged him to write a song about it. Presley, who was then looking to expand his popularity from the South to the nation as a whole. Taking cues from Blackwell’s vocal Building on his early success, Blackwell continued to write phrasing, Presley turned the song into a 1956 sensation that topped for Presley, and he created a string of hit songs for other the country, R&B, and pop charts alike.

But many other artists gave voice to Blackwell’s work, leaving behind a legacy that reaches far beyond Presley’s shadow. Indeed, Blackwell is considered one of rock & roll’s most influential songwriters. According to the Songwriters Hall of Fame, “Blackwell is without question one of the select songwriters whose songs literally helped redefine America’s popular music in the early and mid-1950s.” Born February 16, 1932, in Brooklyn, New York, Blackwell grew up next to a movie theater and developed a passion for Hollywood’s singing cowboys and their western music. “Like the blues, it told a story,” he once said. “But it didn’t have the same restrictive construction.

Blackwell’s demo tape of “Don’t Be Cruel” caught the ear of Presley, who had just signed with RCA Records in November 1955 and was looking to Presley’s manager, Colonel Tom Parker, insisted that Blackwell share expand his southern regional popularity to national stardom. Taking cues writing credit with Presley to increase the artist’s profit—a common from Blackwell’s distinctive vocal phrasing, Presley turned the song into a practice at the time among stars.

There is a huge quantity of information about Clint Eastwood his life and career on numerous websites, books etc. We focus mainly on his connection to The Everly Brothers and in particular to Phil Everly plus brief overview of his career. American film actor, director, producer, composer and politician. Eastwood first came to prominence as a supporting cast member in the TV series Rawhide (1959–1965). He rose to fame for playing the Man with No Name in Sergio Leone’s Dollars trilogy of spaghetti westerns (A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly) during the 1960s, and as San Francisco Police Department Inspector Harry Callahan in the Dirty Harry films (Dirty Harry, Magnum Force, The Enforcer, Sudden Impact and The Dead Pool) during the 1970s and 1980s. These roles, along with several others in which he plays tough-talking no-nonsense police officers, have made him an enduring cultural icon of masculinity. Eastwood won Academy Awards for Best Director and Producer of the Best Picture, as well as receiving nominations for Best Actor, for his work in the films Unforgiven (1992) and Million Dollar Baby (2004).

    Rock the Halls with Bows of Holly 1 Part One: Stairway to Whatever 1. Rock the Halls with Bows of Holly “The levee ain’t dry, And the music didn’t die, ‘Cause Buddy Holly lives Every time we play rock and roll.” —Cricket bandmate Sonny Curtis, 1980 This is a book mostly about Buddy Holly. And his Crickets. The world knows Buddy as the martyred hero of “American Pie,” Don McLean’s #1 rockin’ 1971 saga of dry levees, roaring Chevys, and a golden-age America when rock was young. Long before leaded Zeppelin dreams soared aloft to the stars on ‘Stairways to Heaven,’ rock and roll first honored lean Texan Buddy Holly with his fiery Fender Stratocaster and magic voice. Holly and his rockin’ Crickets brought 1957-59 America and the English-speaking world its first torrid affair with a genuine rock and roll band. After Elvis This’ll Be The Day 2 Presley’s vocals, Chuck Berry’s lead guitar and teen lyrics, and dozens of dynamic drummers perfo- rated 50s quietude with new molten music, Buddy’s electric guitar and bass-powered rock band the Crickets gave us our first taste of rock band glory. Buddy also jump-started the Beatles and Bob Dylan. And yes, of course, the Fab Four owe the Crickets for their style, their gung-ho gusto, and their name. By now, the Beatles’ reputation as premier rock band has never been higher. This’ll Be the Day is about the world’s first and the world’s greatest rock and roll band.
