The song "The Creep" came out in 1953 and was written and recorded for HMV by Yorkshire-born big band leader and saxophonist Ken Mackintosh.[22] Although this was not a rock and roll record, it was widely taken on by the Teddy Boys of the time.[23] From 1955, Rock and Roll was adopted by the Teddy Boys when the film Blackboard Jungle was first shown in cinemas in the UK,[24] and Teddy Boys started listening to artists like Elvis Presley, Bill Haley and Eddie Cochran.
