After being knocked to the floor by his mother in 1955 during a 'reefer madness' moment, Joseph 'Joe Kool' Jack bids his New Orleans family life adieu-seeking sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll; which triggers a long Forrest Gump type journey of funny and outrageous misadventures that reveal Joe-at least in his own mind-as the real genius and driving force behind many of history's greatest rock and pop culture moments. Joe's hedonistic quest gets a righteous start when he winds up naked and on the wrong end of the barrel of a sawed-off shotgun after escaping the sharp knife of a voluptuous beauty he was romancing-all because he made the most egregious mistake a man could ever make while in the midst of being intimate with a woman. While in his 'birthday suit,' Joe straps on a guitar and does a completely naked Chuck Berry 'duck walking' routine in order to weasel his way out of being shot; and simultaneously performs a subtle bit of subterfuge to camouflage an urgent need, which results in the creation of a rock 'n roll device that would later become the forte of rocker/guitarist Pete Townsend and a zillion other guitar players....The 'pure genius' of Joe Kool Jack is born!
