| | Rock and roll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Rock and roll emerged as a defined musical style in America in the 1950s, though elements of rock and roll can be heard in rhythm and blues records as far back as the 1920s. | | | Early rock and roll combined elements of blues, boogie woogie, jazz and rhythm and blues, and is also influenced by traditional Appalachian folk music, gospel, Hillbilly and country and western. | | | In 1954, Elvis Presley recorded at Sam Phillips' Sun studios in Memphis, the regional hit "That's All Right, Mama." Elvis played a rock and country and western fusion called rockabilly, which was characterized by hiccuping vocals, slapping bass and a spastic guitar style. |

| | Blues-rock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Blues-rock, is a hybrid musical genre combining elements of the blues with rock and roll. | | | A classic example of blues-rock is Cream's "Crossroads", adapted from Robert Johnson's "Cross Road Blues" and "Traveling Riverside Blues"; it fuses some of the lyrical and musical styles of blues with rock-styled tempo and guitar solos. | | | Led Zeppelin was a huge force in the early 70s blues-rock scene but their music soon turned towards hard rock or heavy metal. |

| | NothinButDaBlues Reading Room (Shhh, people are trying to read in here) |
| | Blues, more than any other musical style, influenced the birth of rock'n'roll, and the amplified electric blues of Chicago, Memphis, and other cities during the 1950s was separated from the new music only by its more traditional chord patterns, cruder production values, and narrower market. | | | The Blues Project-led by Al Kooper-often reworked blues songs with rock arrangements, although their musical vision was too eclectic to be pigeonholed as blues rock. | | | He also wrote about blues for the music papers, and was a detractor of the flashy, psychedelic and commercialized blues rock of the late 1960s, which he resented for its focus on extended solos and its fixation on Chicago blues. |

| | Blogcritics.org: Sunday Morning Playlist: Blues Rock |
| | Rock 'n' roll, of course, owes its very existence to blues; it is a debt that largely went unacknowledged until the mid-1960's when a number of bands on both sides of the Atlantic began emphasizing the blues inherent in rock, creating the genre of blues-rock. | | | What the 60's blues-rock bands had largely in common was an adherence to the traditional three chord structure of blues coupled with instrumental improvisation; the epitome of such a band is Cream, although there were many others at the time, some remaining even more faithful to the original blues sound. | | | In the 80's, as the roots-rock movement was beginning to gather steam, musicians began to revisit the blues; Stevie Ray Vaughan deserves special credit for repopularizing blues-rock, and updating it for a new generation. |

| | The Animals’ Blues-Rock |
| | And as American rock and roll was taken over by commercial interests and the big record labels in the late 1950s and early 1960s it was these British blues and RandB bands who helped revitalize the music. | | | It was “The House of the Rising Sun.” The British version of this single, released later in 1964, was at that time the longest single ever released, clocking in at 4:20 (most singles averaged 2½ to 3 minutes in length). | | | But perhaps forgotten by now are Freddy and the Dreamers, Unit 4+2, and the Animals – and all the other British groups which followed the headliners over, both with grueling tours and with their wannabe-hit singles, hoping that familiar American blues songs would sound fresh and new when sung in British accents. |
