IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
Since the 1950's Rock and Roll has been the most popular music throughout the world. The original radio broadcast where the music of people like Berry, Presley, Little Richard, and Holly was called "Rock and Roll," took place in 1951 in Cleveland. Unfortunately the broadcaster's name slips my mind.
Rock and Roll is closely connected with youth culture; rock music and musicians have helped to establish new fashions, forms of language, and attitudes. Rock music is no longer limited to a teenage audience, since older listeners were growing up in the 50's and 60's. 
While rock has encouraged new creative expressions, the music of Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, the Beatles and Jimi Hendrix, among others, has created a tradition which generations of musicians turn to for inspiration.

Rock and Roll is the only invention to influence our culture for so long and in so many ways.
