Rock’n'Roll versus Rock

July 6th, 2009

I had a really interesting discussion with Jeff about the evolution of Rock’n'Roll. There’s such a wide range of styles associated with it now, that the name hardly has any meaning. In my own mind, I make a distinction between Rock’n'Roll and Rock Music, but my guess is that it would be lost on most of the people I know, especially the kids. If I gave the example of Elvis versus AC/DC maybe it would be a little more clear, but then when you get into the distinction between the Stones and Def Leppard, it gets a little fuzzier.

Probably doesn’t matter except to us categorization freaks, but it was nice to talk with somebody else who gets it.
