Rock music is slang for rock and roll music. Originating is the 40's and early 50's, it is a genre of music that has evolved from an experiment between boogie woogie/blues(ex.John Lee Hooker), gospel(ex.Mahalia Jackson) , and country/western(ex.Jimmie Rodgers) along with swing and jazz music known as rockabilly into the hundreds of subcategories and counting that we know of today. The REAL definition is a colaboration between all genres of music of that time. A colaboration of all races, creeds, and positions in society that couldn't have happened if it weren't for the hundreds of things that went terribly wrong and completely right in that period of time. In short, rock music was a miracle of music.
A lot of the reason rock music was formed was when the swinging Big Bands of the 40's were split up by WW2, many either died out or became smaller. They had to rely more on vocals and guitar than the large instumental compositions that they had started out with. Buddy Holly's was the rock music band that set the standard of 3 guitars and drums.

Get the rock music mug.Music is the essence of humanity. light and beautiful, yet it will live on through the ages...through war, famine, drought, death...music will always be there. There is no sciecentific formula for music, it cannot be made on a production line. Music is only music when made by an instrument. Music is from the heart. Great jazz artists that are now dead, but their live recordings live on capturing how they felt there and then on that stage. Music is life, love and without it we would cease to exist!
