Chapter 1
I was fifty years old when I first heard rock and roll.
It was the summer of 1956, and I was driving through Kentucky in my brand-new Cadillac Eldorado, on my way to a business meeting.
The sun was shining, the top was down, and the radio was blasting out some of the most god-awful noise I’d ever heard.
I’d been a big band fan all my life—Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey—and this new music sounded like a bunch of cats being strangled.
But for some reason, I couldn’t turn it off.
I kept fiddling with the dial, trying to find something else to listen to, but every station was playing the same stuff: Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Little Richard.
And then I heard it: "Blue Suede Shoes" by Carl Perkins.
It was like a bolt of lightning from the sky.
It was rock and roll, and it changed my life forever.
I didn’t know it right then, but that music would become my passion, my obsession, the thing that drove me to get up in the morning and kept me awake at night.
When you’re fifty years old, you think you know who you are.
You’ve got a successful business, a loving family, a comfortable home—what more could you want?
But I’d always felt like there was something missing from my life.
I just couldn’t put my finger on what it was until that day on the road to Shelbyville when rock and roll came into my life like an unexpected storm and turned everything upside down.
It was the most exciting thing that had ever happened to me—more exciting even than opening my first restaurant or making my first million dollars—and I knew right away that I had to be part of it somehow.
I was already a successful businessman, so I didn’t need to be a rock star.
But I knew that this new kind of music was going to be big, bigger than anything that had ever come before it, and I wanted in.
I wanted to be part of something that exciting and new.
And so I made up my mind that day that somehow, some way, I was going to be a part of this revolution in music.
