Your best essay yet, Robert. It’s rich and full of original insight. Especially good is the original insight about Brother Ray giving legitimacy to rock and roll. Rock was not accepted at that moment, but if it was good enough for “the Genius,” if he could find its smart spot, others could, too. Sweet!

This is the first of your essays I’ve read. Thank you so much - a wonderful and heartfelt piece. I’ll be coming back to it with my headphones so I can appreciate the accompanying clips. Looking forward to exploring your other pieces. I’ve forwarded the Elvis one to my partner.
