history: Rock and Roll is my favorite music genre, are you familiar with it? I'm aware that it is a popular genre of music and had its origins was during the late 1940s to early 1950s in the US. Yes rock and roll evolved from from African American musical styles such as gospel, blues, jazz, boogie woogie,along with country music. Sounds informative, were you also aware that classic rock and roll typically is played with 1 or 2 electric guitars? Yes, and in the earliest rock and roll styles, either the piano or saxophone was typically the lead instrument. The genre had other elements from genres before it too I believe.
