73 Bill Monroe (1911-1996) and the Blue Grass Boys “Blue Moon of Kentucky” 1947

A nervous young Elvis Presley met his idol at the Grand Ole Opry about his rocking remake of “Blue Moon of Kentucky.” Monroe told him, “If it helps your career, I’m for it one hundred percent” (Can’t You Hear Me Callin’). Listed on the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress.
