Rock & roll was more than a new kind of music, it helped transform American culture. Trace the history of rock & roll from its roots in blues, gospel, country, and rhythm & blues through the birth of rock in the 1950s, the cultural revolution of the 1960s, the fragmentation and expansion of rock in the 1970s, and the rise of punk, alternative rock, and grunge. Explore the musicians, songs, technologies, and cultural changes that shaped rock history and examine larger questions about race, youth culture, rebellion, politics, sexuality, commercialism, and generational identity.
