OLD 55 Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Riding on the City of New Orleans, Illinois Central Monday morning rail Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders, Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail. All along the southbound odyssey The train pulls out at Kankakee Rolls along past houses, farms and fields. Passin' trains that have no names, Freight yards full of old black men And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles. [Chorus] Good morning America how are you? Don't you know me I'm your native son, I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans, I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

pinkstones Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Train In Vain wasn't released as a single until February of 1980, so it doesn't count in this list. That's why I couldn't use it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted May 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 I get your point Pink, but even though it charted later, it was a cut off a 1979 album so we'll let it stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindCrime Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 I wanted to add Rocket 88 - Ike Turner, but I think it came out before the charts did. It's considered to be the first rock n roll song ever created by the R&R Hall of Fame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted May 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Yes, there were Charts around then, young Kenne. That song is credited to "Jackie Brenston and His Delta Cats". He was with" Ike Turner's Kings Of Rhythm" and there is some speculation about who/m the song should be credited to. It never charted on the mainstream Pop Charts, but was #1 in the Rhythm & Blues Charts for 5 weeks. It would have been very difficult for a song like this 'Devil's Music' to make the mainstream Charts in 1951. The 'argument' about what was the first Rock 'n' Roll record will never be settled. I believe a number of songs by Louis Jordan And His Tympany Five could qualify. He holds the record for most weeks @ #1 (113) on the R & B Charts. Unless some Hip Hopper has broken it since. And before him I'm sure there many old bluesmen who sang what we'd now call Rock 'n' Roll. I won't add another song. I'll leave that for someone else. I replenished 'my List' with another 10 last night. So we've got 100, which is great ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's considered to be the first rock n roll song ever created by the R&R Hall of Fame. That song wouldn't fit the criteria even if it did make the charts. I tried 2 different space word songs near the beginning of this game and Old55 said "no space word songs for this game." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
