We're not singing about a mystery, We're singing songs about our history, It's not the school of hard knocks, It's Professor Presley History Rocks! Filling a void where SCHOOLHOUSE ROCKS left off in the 70's, Professor Presley History Rocks is an educational CD project created by a Middle School teacher in Encinitas, Ca. This 9 song CD will help students learn (and teachers teach) some of the key lessons of U.S. History in a fun and entertaining way while listening to rock 'n' roll and punk influenced songs. These songs are recorded in high quality digital sound and have recieved airplay on radio stations in San Diego including 91X FM. This CD was recorded at Earthling Records working with their studio wizard Mike Kamoo (Kamoo recorded and mastered the critically acclaimed STEREOTYPES albums). Reynolds wrote and recorded the songs and then found a variety of singers from some of Southern California's finest rock 'n' roll bands to join in on the project. Vocalists featured include; Charlie Ware (Lucy's Fur Coat), John Finkbiner (The Stereotypes), Dylan Martinez(Static Halo/Rookie Card), Amy Dellar (Jameson's Gypsies), Jillian Lagasse (Chef Emeril's talented daughter), and Dante Cante (Jersey Thursday ). The song topics are taken from the California Social Studies History Standards for 8th grade U.S. History. This is the first CD in a series. Look for a cartoon featuring Professor Presley in 2006.
