How else can you describe pop music in the early 1950s than to call it "polite"? Exhibit number one: Patti Page's giant hit single "(How much is that) Doggie in the Window" recorded in 1952 and a number one hit in 1953. There was no edge to such music as that. It was nice and clean and... polite. The grown-ups loved it. The kids on the other hand were becoming increasingly discontent with what they were being offered. They wanted a music that was their own. As the mid 50s approached, you could say they hungered for music they could love. Enter rock and roll and rockabilly!
