Who Gave Rock And Roll To You??

[El Kabong]

AMERICA!

It started here and we have more Rock'N'Roll Royalty here. Sure The UK has given us great bands but add them all up and they still don't come close to having as much influence as the Americans: Elvis, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard....this list goes on and on.


Besides Alan Freed (American) gave us the name Rock'n'Roll.

Without doubt through America, black Americans then the white ones.It has been a major factor in bringing us all together as one.



In England the Stones started off playing old black American blues and had Howlin Wolf fly over for a session with them .

Most of the top British lead players cite Mick Green of the Pirates as their main influence in wishing to play.

Most people then say who

Tease all you want.....they put out better stuff that the majority of American bands when they were around. Doesn't mean England brought Rock'n'Roll to anybody as good as America has.

I liked the rock and roll dancing; girls in short polka dotted dresses getting swirled around up and over the back etc and that crazy stomping dance step the ladies did was so sexy and out there for its time. Love it all.
