where did rock music come from
Rock and Roll originated in a town called Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Rock and Roll was a term used around the late 40's-early 50's to describe a mean, fast blues song or album, combined with, as said before, crooning. The person to come closest to inventing or starting rock and roll would be Chuck Berry by the majority of surveys. However, the originator of the electric guitar, Les Paul, wrote the first song or piece on the electric guitar, and later formed a music group with his wife Mary Ford.
