They had their first success with a song called "Hard Times" that became an R&B hit in 1952. They followed it another bluesy composition, "Hound Dog," for the inimitable Big Mama Thornton. A few years later "Hound Dog" would become a #1 hit for Elvis Presley, and Jerry and Mike became the King's favorite songwriters. They went on to write for the Coasters, the Drifters and many others. Along the way they mentored an ambitious young writer-producer named Phil Spector and influenced musician Burt Bacharach. Here they describe how two young guys created the soundtrack for a generation.--From publisher description. 505 0 $a East Coast roots -- West Coast convergence -- Makin' the scene -- Coastin' -- Absolute harmony -- Hound Dog -- Spark -- Hard times -- New Times -- Searchin' -- In the King's court -- Girdles -- What's my line? -- Driftin' in the City -- There goes my baby -- The Brill Building -- He wore his ambition like a topcoat -- Tigers and daisies -- Al and Dick's -- The bird flies -- The magnificent merger that never happened -- The bird dies -- Happenings -- A new era -- Take 36 -- Romance and finance -- Mirrors -- The last clean shirt -- Life and art -- Smokey Joe's. 600 10 $a Leiber, Jerry. 600 10 $a Stoller, Mike. 650 0 $a Lyricists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Composers $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Rock music $z United States $x History and criticism. 700 1 $a Stoller, Mike. 700 1 $a Ritz, David. 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0902/2008047821-b.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0909/2008047821-d.html 856 41 $3 Sample text $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0910/2008047821-s.html 941 $a 7 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314031710.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021015402.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722023002.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204060714.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110042554.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20171214014634.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160824024608.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0189981A82AB11DE820800E8A7D7520A 994 $a 02 $b KAYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
