UNKNOWN LEGENDS OFROCK & ROLL
The Purpose of Unknown Legends of Rock & Roll is to produce a film showing several Rock & Rollers only a few people know and to show the affect they had on Rock & Roll and pop music through the 60s & 70s up through today.
These Unknown Legends of Rock & Roll feature Timi Yuro (over 1 million YouTube hits for her 1950s hit “Hurt”), Magic Sam Maghett, Hubert Sumlin (left), Carl Perkins and others which brought and fostered Rock and Roll sometimes through the Blues, sometimes with Rhythm and Blues and sometimes through just out and out Rock and Roll.
Interviewing past and present Rock stars, including Mick Jagger, Elton John, Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page and others will show how they were influenced by these Unknown Rock & Roll Legends. Any old tapes and footage of these Unknown Rock & Roll Legends we find pertinent to this film will be used.
