The Beatles were in their early teens playing skiffle music at their local junior highs and high schools. Page and Plant were still in elementary school. Welcome to 1955, the beginning of rock's domination. Perry Como and Frank Sinatra were crooning their way to a regular spot on the top 10, when Bill Haley and the Comets unexpectedly landed at #2 with Rock Around the Clock. From there rock started rolling, and there would be no stopping it for almost 20 years! Come on in, take a seat, and get ready for your first lesson at the School of Rock!
