| | Rock and roll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | 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. | | | 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. | | | Rock and roll (also spelled rock 'n' roll, especially in its first decade), is a genre of music that emerged as a defined musical style in the Southern United States in the 1950s, and quickly spread to the rest of the country, and the world (rhythm sample). |

| | A Guide to the Progressive Rock Genres |
| | The outfits of the original RIO list were forward-thinking ensembles influenced by 20th century avant garde, jazz, folk and other music and were concerned with stretching the boundaries of the rock form in both compositional and, occasionally, improvisational settings. | | | Rock groups known as industrial range from the late 70s/early 80s to the present day in styles from the abstract and experimental to dance and pop music. | | | Early Roxy Music, David Bowie, Brian Eno's 70s rock music, and Be Bop Deluxe serve as examples of the latter definition. |

| | Music of Puerto Rico - Genres: Jazz |
| | With such diverse roots and equally diverse expressions of the genre, it is very difficult to say precisely just what is jazz music and what sets it apart from other genres. | | | The ability to play the blues has always been the mark of all jazz musicians, who then use the blues framework in their music, despite the fact that the blues has a history independent from jazz. | | | Traditional jazz is meant for dancing with a tonal scheme that can be easily recognized, while the modern version is intended for listening and characterized by dissonance or a tonal scheme that can be barely recognized by the average listener. |

| | Starting as a folk singer she explored other musical genres, including jazz and continues to produce highly respected paintings. | | | When her four albums spawned a slew of country-pop hits, the midriff-baring chanteuse behind “Man! I Feel Like a Woman” and “I’m Gonna Getcha Good” reinvigorated a well-worn music genre and promptly became the top-selling country artist of all time. | | | Convinced that 'aboriginal people are not being recognized as the first people of this country,' the Manitoba legislator blocked the passage of the Meech Lake Accord, hoping to put aboriginal issues at the top of Canada's constitutional agenda. |

| | CD Baby: a little CD store with the best new independent music |
| | While most of these tracks hover around a modern jazz context, honing in on a particular, distinctive elegance and a dramatic push-pull of harmony and melody, the genre boudaries are broad and forgiving, touching into pop as well. | | | Matched with a light, delicate and exquisite mix of country folk, bluegrass and americana, her voice is absolutely the highlight of the music. | | | There is a quality slightly reminiscent of Bjork as well- a raw innocence, a stripping down to the bone, an unprecedented nakedness that leaves one transfixed and enamored with her delicate, vulnerable and yet unapologetic style. |
