On the R & B charts, the number one song the day I was born was Rocket 88 y Jackie Brenston & His Delta Cats. On the country/western charts, it was I Want to Be With You Always by Lefty Frizzell.

The song Rocket 88 was actually written and produced by Ike Turner, who played piano on the track. It was basically his first commercial success.
