Harold Jenkins picked his stage name in 1957 by looking at a road map and spotting Conway, AR and Twitty, TX.

He also wrote "Rock House" and sold it to another young singer at Sun by the name of Roy Orbison which became his second single there. Hear both versions of "Rock House" in the video below...
