Description
|
|
|
|
The emergence of rock and roll signaled a monumental change in popular music, and as rock grew, it assimilated a wide range of influences, including country, folk, jazz, gospel, and international styles. From Chuck Berry, the Byrds, and Jimi Hendrix to Nirvana, R.E.M., and Frank Zappa, the major sounds, movements, and images of rock and roll are encapsulated here. This subject in the American Popular Music series of references provides hundreds of entries on key personalities, recordings, performances, instruments, and musical styles, presented with scores of black and white photos, a glossary, recommended recordings, and a chronology.
