Explosive sound and energy
ROCK music didn’t exist 60 years ago. 1 Someone didn’t just wake up and invent rock.So, how did it happen? What is rock?Although impossible to strictly define, it’s generally recognized that rock music was born in 1950s America. 2 At this time, early “rockers”were mixing the country music of white America with the rhythm and blues sound loved by the black US citizens.The result was rock‘n’ roll.The record most commonly considered as the beginning of the rock ‘n’ roll period is Bill Haley & The Comets’1954 recording of “Rock Around the Clock”. 3 Elvis’s 1950s recordings established the basic language of rock ‘n’ roll; his explosive stage presence set standards for the music’s visual image, while his voice was powerful and interesting.
4 Despite the different directions and sound of rock bands over the last 50 years, there is something common to all the greats:a charming lead vocalist, a talented guitarist full of energy and creativity, a bassist with cool indifference and a drummer.
For most of its life, rock has been split into different parts, creating new styles every few years-giving birth to a never-ending number of sub-genres. 5 Rock is a generic term, but it’s exciting that it can now mean so many different things.

D.In fact, in the West, musically speaking, the years 1953~1955 are known as the rock ‘n’ roll years.
E.As a result, “rock”has been used to describe everything from bands playing catchy rhythms to groups based on tuneless, noisy guitars.
F.Rock music will be held in our school if we send an invitation to the band.
G.But it was Elvis Presley, known as “The King of Rock and Roll”, who really popularized the new sound throughout America and the Western world.
