Episode description

Join Dan and Mike as they rock and roll their way down Ohio’s Backroads to Cleveland to determine if Alan Freed really coined the term “Rock and Roll” while he was a popular disc jockey on Cleveland radio in the 1950s. The city is known as the “Rock and Roll Capital of the World” and the Rock and Roll Museum is located on its Lake Erie shore, but did Alan Freed really coin the term that eventually bestowed these honors upon Ohio’s north coast city?
