Here's an image of a newspaper page from 1960 with a piece about a record my friend/hero Stan Freberg had just released — a little ditty called "The Old Payola Roll Blues." It was a funny spoof on a scandal that was then sweeping the record and radio industries. What's interesting here is that the reviewer, Don Page, makes some fearless predictions about how the sixties will mark the demise of rock-and-roll. I don't think that happened.
