Rock music.

Everybody's favourite thing in the world..a sequel :]

Rock music's roots lie in rythmn and blues, the later style of soul. Rock music entered the mainstream in the late 40's, early 50's. Seeing as most people know about rock, I'm not going to on and on like i did for soul music..anyway, here are some great genres of rock:
  • Surf rock (recommended song "California Girls" The Beach Boys)
  • Folk rock (recommended song "Mr. Tambourine Man" Bob Dylan)
  • Phsycadelic rock (recommended song "Foxy Lady" The Jimi Hendrix Experience)
  • Glam rock (reommended song "Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy" Queen)
  • Progressive rock (recommended song "Money" Pink Floyd)
  • Hard rock (recommended song "Whiplash" Metallica)
  • Arena rock (recommended song "I Was Made For Lovin' You" KISS)
  • Punk rock (recommended song "Holidays In The Sun" Sex Pistols)
  • New Wave (recommended song "Whip It" Devo)
  • Post-punk (recommended song "Vertigo" U2)
