THE HISTORY OF ROCK & ROLL in music ...or

[Fearandloathing]

tonight, ladies and gentlemen, we are telling a tale in music, a tale of how the roots of country and blues kind of came together with "negro music" and the likes of Stairway to Heaven were born.

We do not necessarily begin at the beginning, but there is a theme here.

Feel free to join in as we progress, but we ask if you are responding to something from an era, please indicate that.

And so we begin with the Coasters' version of a tune first released the year I was born.....1949, the year, some historians agree was the year it all began...

And so here, in the early summer of 1966, when I had my shiny new Honda 90S and a brown eyed girl to take along on the back....we danced to the Bobby Fuller Four one night and I found out she didn't like "French Kissing"...

Ah, and so pretty....

More to come

[OceanloverOH]

Thank you so much for asking me to help you with this, Fearandloathing! I had a ball with it....and we both played some music that I daresay many haven't heard in years (and many not at all, LOL). Wonderful evening! Hugs from Ocean......

[Trinnity]

Great stuff.....more more!

[Fearandloathing]

We're going to pick up where we left off tomorrow during the day and if its still raining in the evening too...

[Fearandloathing]

And so, we are back with the beginning of 1967, the year of love ins and getting tear gassed by the National Guard; the fuckers in Ohio were the worst.

And as the snows of Lake Erie began to thaw, this little ditty hit mainstream rock and roll radio, displacing everything the Monkey's rel;eased that winter.

And, a rather famous beginning to a new phenomenon; the "one hit wonder".

Ladies and gentlemen, the Boxtops:

And now we will close off the year 1967 with a strange little ditty, which heralded both the end of "cute music" for awhile as America opened a new war, one within its own borders..

But what the Guardsmen, another one hit wonder, did not know was they were setting the stage for a new concept in music which would ignite five or six years later, called "bubble gum" music..

Here is the the classic that barely made the top 100 list, but one that was, sadly, the signal of the end of an innocent era, the free living 50"s era was officially dead, and the 60's were NOW the era....

Our innocence was not quite dead. It would take another year of Nixon and Vietnam before the "love generation" would grow cynical.

As 1968 turned into 1969, were were waiting for the promise of putting men on the moon, wondering what happened to the "real" Mustang and finding a new "age"....the year 1969 was dominated by brother love....

The 5th dimension would never have to work again:

And with that we pay tribute to has to be the definitive album of the era...just as 1969 brought an end to the innocence of whatever the hell it was we were doing, Abbey Road brought an end to an era, and the Beatles.

And now, having already played the opening song, we present here the entire album in sequence with the notation that eventually every song wold be played as a single on the radio.....another last.

And now we will pause here, remember those days and the emotions the music held for us.

From here, mainstream rock starts to get, well, different and divergent as we will see...

We have a long, long year in music as 1970 is where it all came together, some beginnings and some endings, and the final ending of the Beatles to leave us with the incredible gift that was the White Album...
