Best Answer

It is unknown what could be called the first Rock 'n' Roll record. There are many examples including Rock and Roll by Wild Bill Moore, made in 1949; The Camp Meeting Jubilee by Little Wonder, the first referance to the words Rock and Roll, made in 1916, the meaning is clearly religious in this song, with the words 'Rocking and rolling in your arms, In the arms of Moses', and yes, Rocket 88 is one example.
