The company, which originally made slot machines, pinball machines, and scales was founded in 1927.
Earliest rock and roll styles started in the late 1940s and early 1950s from rhythm and blues . Bill Haley's "Rock Around the Clock" 1954 is recognized as one of if not the first Rock & Roll hit. But it didn't really become popular until 1955.
Not trying to be a wise guy or anything, but how old are you LeagleEagle? If under 45 you were born after the hay day of Rock & Roll.
