	railroad bill - who are we???
		Although opinion is divided as to who first used the term 'skiffle', for those of us in the UK it was a particular type of music that emerged in the 1950's, and drew heavily on American Folk Music, Blues and Gospel.
		Skiffle sets were first used as fillers between sets for the various trad jazz bands of the time, and grew into a craze that was as big as the rock and roll craze that followed it.
		This was a brand new sound in the UK in 1954 and soon every town had several skiffle bands, using home made and long overlooked instruments - tea chest and wash tub basses, a washboard for rhythm, guitars, banjos, ukulele's, mandolin, kazoo - basically anything that anyone could lay their hands on.

		One of the many groups who appeared on the Six Five Special was Somebody or Other and His Skiffle Kings.
		I regret not remembering the singer's name but it was the name of his group which made me resolve to have a group of my own.
		But I had three sisters who, very briefly, sang the chorus to a backing only of rudimentary percussion, as The Skiffle Princesses on "Puttin' on the style".

		The album is a high-spirited trip down memory lane for anyone who remembers skiffle -- an energetic, do-it-yourself style of music that rendered early American folk, blues and jazz on acoustic guitars and rub-boards.
		And Donegan was skiffle's king, thanks to his signature smash, Rock Island Line.
		Nevertheless, The Skiffle Sessions is Donegan's most high-profile release since 1978's Puttin' on the Style, which featured such Donegan fans as Elton John, Ringo Starr and Brian May of Queen.

	CANOE -- JAM! Music - Artists - Van Morrison Album Review: THE SKIFFLE SESSIONS -- LIVE IN BELFAST 1998
		One cannot underestimate the influence that skiffle music and its most famous practitioners, Lonnie Donegan and Chris Barber, had on an entire generation of young folk throughout the U.K. in the late 1950s.
		Van Morrison was among those who were inspired by skiffle's repertoire of American folk-blues songs, which were energetically rendered with do-it-yourself determination and required just three chords on an acoustic guitar, whatever percussive device you could bang and perhaps a horn or piano.
		The Skiffle Sessions is undoubtedly Donegan and Barber's show.

	BBC - Nottingham Music -Elvis Presley reviews
		Regardless, the anniversary allows a reassessment of those rebellious times and two of the best CD releases are Elvis At Sun and Kings of Rock n Roll.
		But it's certainly a good record of the early life of rock n roll and is accompanied by liner notes from the son of the legendary Sam Phillips and memories of the recording sessions.
		More straight forward is Kings of Rock 'n' Roll which takes the genre's formative stars and gives you their greatest hits.

	SXSW on Austin360
		Their shtick, playing chirpy covers of songs such as opening number "Don't Rock the Jukebox" and doo-wop classic "Speedo," was validated by adventurous, trusting harmonies.
		And the little skiffle groove these nonstop smilers gave to Mungo Jerry's "In the Summertime" was beyond infectious.
		Actually, that's not fair — the Norwegian duo Kings of Convenience don't claim to be the future of rock 'n' roll, even if the duo gave its second album the manifestolike title "Quiet Is the New Loud." And Lord knows, the Kings are a heck of a lot better than the '70s schlockmeister Fogelberg.

		They didn't know whether rock music was just a passing fad (like 3D movies, another 1950's phenomenon), or whether rock was here to stay.
		The Golden Disc includes some skiffle, some rock n' roll, some cool jazz, ballads and even a trumpet solo - the producers were clearly hedging their bets with this one.
		The story revolves around the 'Lucky Charm' coffee bar (the name 'sounds gay' says wide eyed Mary Steele who looks and sounds as if she has just stepped out of a 1950's television commercial for OMO or DAZ, and probably has).

		Skiffle was a peculiarly British phenomenon that flourished in the mid to late 50's.
		The Skiffle Kings remembered all this and formed their band over 15 years ago to recapture some of the spontaneity and excitement of this great music.

		Non si sa chi per primo abbia utilizzato il termine 'skiffle', ma in Inghilterra si definì così il genere musicale che si sviluppò negli anni Cinquanta attingendo al folk americano, al blues e al Gospel.
		Momenti di skiffle furono in origine utilizzati da intermezzo negli spettacoli delle jazz bands tradizionali ma ben presto divennero una vera e propria mania come quella del rock and roll che la seguì.
		Era il 1954 e ben presto ogni città del Regno Unito ebbe le sue skiffle bands che usavano strumenti trovati o fatti in casa: bassi costruiti con casse da thè o tinozze, tavole da bucato per il ritmo, chitarre, banjos, ukulele, mandolini, kazoo...
