Pat Boone's Pat Boone

Video Tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eq-1CApNXbA

Description: In the late 1950s, clean-cut crooner Pat Boone was pop’s all-American counterpoint to the rising tide of rock ’n’ roll rebellion, and his self-titled 1957 LP cover captures him in that carefully composed glow. Shot uptown in New York, NY 10027, the image sets Boone’s easy smile and crisp suit against a city that was rapidly modernizing, hinting at the tension between old-fashioned charm and a new youth culture. Standing on a quiet Manhattan block rather than a glitzy marquee, he looks less like a distant star and more like the polite boy next door who just happens to have a hit on the radio. This cover location is one of the featured stops in the MusicRoadTrip.com App.
