His synthesis of country, rhythm \u0026amp; blues and gospel resulted in an inventive mixture of hair-raising rock \u0026amp; roll and balladry. This book focuses on the music of Presley's groundbreaking early years and includes a comprehensive analysis of every Presley recording session from the 1950s. Chapters show how Presley, with one foot in delta mud and the other in a country hoedown, teamed with Scotty Moore and Bill Black to fuse two distinctly American musical forms--country and blues--to form what would come to be known as \"rockabilly.\" Also detailed is Presley's influence on music and how his contributions are still celebrated today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46444950913175,"sku":"9781476684314","price":2844.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781476684314.webp?v=1769132254","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-sonic-swagger-of-elvis-presley-a-critical-history-of-the-early-recordings-9781476684314","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
