The History of Rock and Roll, according to me...
according to me...

Toad - New Orleans 1993
  

A look at all the bands that REALLY mattered.

Let me take you along on a journey through time to explore the evolution of Rock and Roll as only I can tell it.

Hi, my name is Ricky Johnson aka 'Toad', yes that's right, Toad. I'm from the Mississippi Delta, the birthplace of the blues. Blues music can be traced as the father of many types of music including Country, Rock, and even New Orleans Jazz. All the great blues legends such as Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, and B. B. King all have their roots in the rich Delta soil. Many made the trip up Highway 61 to Memphis as well as down south to New Orleans to find their fame and fortune. This is the story of MY trip up and down the Blues highway of life. Let the journey begin...


The Early Years - 1960 AD

As you can see... my brother and I enjoyed clowning around together from an early age.
That's me wearing the sunglasses. Legend has it that this picture was taken on my second birthday.
