The era of Teen Idols began in the late 1950s with the explosive combination of the birth of Rock and Roll and television when a crop of smooth crooners and raunchy rockers drove teens wild with their angst-ridden songs. The first batch of Teen Idols left an indelible mark on both the recording industry and television, and established a creative path that is still well traveled today as well as the baby-boomer generation. Happily, most of the original Idols are still with us, and many of our musical faves of the past still perform today.
