In 1956-57, my high school cafeteria in central California had a jukebox which we could play during our lunch hour. On it were such legends as Bo Diddley, The Coasters, Buddy Holly and the Crickets, Bill Doggett ("Raunchy"), The Diamonds, The Five Satins, Johnny Otis ("Willie and the Hand Jive"), The Platters and even that seminal rock anthem by Bill Haley and the Comets, "Rock Around the Clock." I listened, I enjoyed, yet I opted for folk music. Here's a fond R.I.P. to one who started the whole thing.
