What is ROCK AND ROLL? Rock and Roll is a defined supergenre of music that originated in the United States in the 1950s. It later evolved into the various sub-genres of what is now called simply ROCK. The heart of rock and roll is the rhythm, which is basically a "boogie woogie" blues rhythm with an accentuated backbeat, almost always on snare drum. Rock and Roll can trace one lineage to the old Five Points district of mid-19th century New York City, the scene of the first fusion of heavily rhythmic African shuffles and sand dances with melody-driven European genres, particularly the Irish jig. Rock and Roll began to emerge as a defined musical style in America in the late 1940s as a part of African American culture, when it was called Rhythm and blues, or R&B. Though elements of Rock and Roll can be heard in blues records as far back as the 1920s it did not acquire its eventual name until the 1950s. "Rocking" was a term first used by black gospel singers in the American South to mean something akin to spiritual rapture. By the 1940s, however, the term had a double meaning; Rock And Roll meant to dance, but it also meant to have sex. ROCK AND ROLL!!!! ..
