Rock-n-Roll was born in Memphis Tn. at Sun records in July 1954 with Elvis Presley Thats All right mama.  I too was born same town same year and I play classic rock 68-85 and SRV  and KWS Blues On my 96 and 97 Fender american Stratocaster Guitars. and Fender Tube amps. Just like the King I love Rock-n-Roll  Harley Davidsons and Fishing.

Seriously that's not rock and roll. I have a name for that but I'll show some restraint. ACDC, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin that's rock and roll. I eat, breath, and dump rock and roll. You want some good stuff you ask me.I know my "expletive"

When Alan Freed coined the term "Rock and Roll",back in 1951, both Ozzy Osbourne, and Robert Plant were 3 years old. Jimmy Page was 8.

So, I don't think so Al...lol.

If its not rock n roll what is it?

Modern rock wouldn't be the same if it wasn't for 50-60s rock N' roll.

Metal, hard rock, deathcore, etc. Those are more my genres. I also listen to country, just not as often as the others I listed.

I'll listen to most all rock, as long as it isn't cookie monster metal.

I have to atleast be able to understand what their saying.

Deathcore is more hardcore lyrics. Metal and hard rock have a little softer lyrics and vocals. Lol

There's a lot of songs that I have to look up lyrics in in deathcore because I can't understand what they're saying through speakers. I believe it's the studio sounds because when I watch them live I can normally understand it and if it's a good quality recording I can understand most of it.

Forgot a genre, screamo.

[Sam]

Rock 'n Roll was the name given to the new music of the 50s and has been with us since then.

Music has evolved from the original love songs and stories to the new Rock 'n Roll which is a lot of noise.

The original Rock 'n Roll is still better than the junk put out today.

And as for country, it was originally called Country/Western until the late 70s when Western was dropped from its name.

Elvis, Righeous Brothers, Sam & Dave, Aretha Franklin and all the others set the stage for today's noise and their works of art will remain with us forever.

[ThatZX14Fella]

Here is my favorite deathcore song. The only one I could understand what they were saying throughout the the whole song. I'm sure none of you will like it, but I'm also sure at least one of you can relate to the message of it. Lol

If the basis for "rock-n-roll" was the inability to understand the words, then Opera would have to be included!

Both Elvis and Roy Orbison came from what was called Rock- a- Billy at first if I'm not mistaken, great music.  Do *** was the 4runner to Franky Valli and the 4 Seasons.  Being a Motown man I'm not so sure I would call it Rock N Roll but whatever really good stuff.  Was listening to Marvin Gaye " What's Goin On" album in the car this morning.

Casey Kasem told a story about Berry Gordy. His mother called him all upset. Seems his younger sister had run away and gotten married, and they couldn't locate her. He assured his mom that he would try to locate her. He put the word out and a couple days later his sister called him and confirmed that she had indeed gotten married. She told Berry her husband could really sing and after much persuasion Gordy agreed to give him an audition. A few days later, a young man walked into his office, and said, Mister Gordy,you don't know me but I married your sister. My name is Marvin Gaye. And, as they say, the rest is history.

The day Buddy holly, ritchie valens, and The big bopper died in a plane crash was the day original rock N' rolls popularity started to take a dive....

Fun fact: Dion was going to board that plane but refused to pay for the expensive ticket and decided not too, and tommy allsup lost his seat to valens In a coin toss.

Buddy holly was only 22 years old and had been popular for alittle over a year, yet he made a tremendous impact on the music industry...

Why you would want to listen to music so obnoxious that you have to look up the lyrics is beyond me haha....

 To say I knew some of these people personally would be a huge stretch of the truth.  Many of the Motown celebs lived in my neighborhood including Berry Gordy, seeing them outside or shopping wasn't out of the ordinary.  Some of us used to hang out at a drive in, now and then Marvin Gaye and David Ruffin (Temptations) came by, we all cruised on our bikes with them.
