Is the blues rock and roll or did rock and roll come from the blues?

Does B.B. King fall in the genre rock n roll (james brown)Is the blues rock and roll or did rock and roll come from the blues?
Rock and Roll developed from Blues.

Probably you can read all about it on Wikipedia, but, if you're truly interested, I recommend you get some old blues records from the 20s and then 30s and 40s so you can listen to the progression yourself until the 50s when rock and roll was born.Is the blues rock and roll or did rock and roll come from the blues?
Rock cam e form the blues



the blues go back to about the 1910'sIs the blues rock and roll or did rock and roll come from the blues?
muddy waters, "the blues had a baby, and they named it rock and roll"

Who do you think should be in the rock and roll hall of fame?

Genesis or Rush?Who do you think should be in the rock and roll hall of fame?
Rush...actually both if it keeps LL Cool J out
Rush :)Who do you think should be in the rock and roll hall of fame?
Rush.
Rush!Who do you think should be in the rock and roll hall of fame?
Rush!
Honestly I think both should but Rush first I think.



But if LL Cool J makes it and The Stooges don't I might kill someone.
Tom Waites!!!!
Both, honestly. My absolute favorite band is Rush, but Genesis is so influential that I have to say both.
I listened more to Genesis, but both are qualified. Someone said LL Cool J ??? Why? Where's the Rock? Of course we said the same thing about Madonna, yet she made it, more's the pity.
Rush..

and..can I add that Deep Purple -really- should be in.

  • Why is Elvis Presley considered the king of rock and roll?

    Cos he had it all ! Looks, charm , attidude ,charisma, amazing voice ! He also knew hot to move in a way that nobody had seen before. He invented rock and roll and he was and still is THE KING !





    XxXWhy is Elvis Presley considered the king of rock and roll?
    He came along at the right time, at the very birth of Rock and Roll; a white R%26amp;B singer that had the looks, charm, charisma, and voice that (added to a very effective PR machine) defined and established the style in the mainstream. As a result, he absolutely RULED the airwaves and pop charts from the very beginning of the Rock %26amp; Roll Era. He led the fledgling style away from a "niche" mix of R%26amp;B and Country, and opened the door for the creativity of both his contemporaries, as well as those who came after...white or black...to nurture and advance the genre in ways we today can only marvel. In short...he changed everything; a demarcation from all that came before and all that came after.



    His cult of personality produced a following that was unprecedented in the history of popular culture (one that exists even today). His legion of fans helped send over 100 of his hits up the pop charts, including 18 #1 hits (his biggest, 1956's "Hound Dog / Don't Be Cruel" stayed on top for 11 weeks, a record that wouldn't be surpassed for 27 years). Even after the Beatles and their contemporaries (most avid Elvis fans themselves) took the reigns of rock in different directions, he was still able to come back and remain remarkably popular...and still chart Top 10 hits...for another decade plus.



    When he died, he was still setting (and selling) records...and his legacy and legend speaks for itself. He was and is to this day the most popular rock and roll artist of all time.

    well in a sense yes due to his rebellion ways like shaking his waist back and forth which was toatlly cersored back then due to it was not right and his great classic songs however i do not know if we can consider him the king of rock since over the years so many great artist have strifed in the rock n roll industryWhy is Elvis Presley considered the king of rock and roll?
    Elvis was the forefather of a new type of music that was so great. He was the only one of his great music at the time and if people wanted to hear it, they had to buy his records because he was the only one

    Is megadeth in the rock and roll hall of fame?

    because i know metallica was induced sometime this/last year. i wanted to know if megadeth was. for those megadeth/metalica fans you know why im askingIs megadeth in the rock and roll hall of fame?
    No. It's a meaningless honor, of course.
    Megadeth will likely never get in, unfortunately- they are too underground. My favorite metal band. But the powers that be pretty much overlook artists in favor of sales- has Tom Waits even been nominated? How about Rush? For that matter, what about KISS? Not that I'm calling Kiss great artists, but they ruled the hard rock scene in the late 70's- very influential. Why would the Beastie Boys (GAG...) get in but not these guys? And don't get me started on Motorhead- Lemmy is the King of Rock, no contest- and Motorhead single-handedly started speed/thrash metal and influenced countless bands while maintaining their artistic integrity.



    The HOF is a corporate joke.Is megadeth in the rock and roll hall of fame?
    No only bands that sell trillions of records and appeal to 90% of the population get in. It's not about music, it's about popularity.
    I believe notIs megadeth in the rock and roll hall of fame?
    The Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame Is a Piss Stain

    Of course not.

    What kind of cultural environment do we need in America to revive rock and roll?

    Yes it did evolve though your assertion that "it really just isn't as good as it used to be" is just your opinion. In my opinion it's better, it's much more diverse today than it's ever been in it's history. I'm sorry if your only indication to music is what's popular or the radio but that's the breaks when you let others feed you music. I prefer to feed myself!



    Revival anything is for those that can't deal with the future.



    .What kind of cultural environment do we need in America to revive rock and roll?
    None, I like rock and roll the way it is.

    Rock guitar and rap beats are kinda of a better version of original rock and roll.

    Original rock and roll, and heavy metal are great.

    But metal-rap, that's awesome.

    There shouldn't be any changes.

    But they should make rock/metal with rap beats albums again!
    Good music comes about when people have a desire for real quality music that has a purpose besides hitting the charts. I'm pretty optimistic about the future though, I think the internet is allowing people to become much more involved in music and develop better taste.What kind of cultural environment do we need in America to revive rock and roll?
    There's always more good bands if you're willing to look for them. There are as many bands now as there ever have been, and because of the internet, it's easier than ever to find them. Either, you just haven't looked, or you're too narrow minded to give new things a chance.
    Corporations need to wield less power, people more.



    (edit: You can TD me all you want, but my answer is precisely the whole purpose of the indie rock movement. I don't think Warner Brothers is gonna revitalize rock music)What kind of cultural environment do we need in America to revive rock and roll?
    You're listening to mainstream shet .. where "rock" music is played for all the wrong reasons.

    Underground clubs is where it's at.

    Bands who LOVE to play music for fun, and not to make money or score record deals.
    It isn't dead, it has just evolved.



    Words like "good" and "bad" express opinion.
    The best rock and roll bands were british....so I've no idea.

    I lost an eye in Vietnam so you could listen to your rock and roll music and sip your lemonade through a straw?

  • Why Is Rock And Roll ok Now?

    Back in the 50s, during the rise of rock n roll, all the Christians and Churches opposed the "sinful music and dancing."



    Why are there so many Christian rock bands today? Did they just 'decide' it's ok now?Why Is Rock And Roll ok Now?
    There's even Christian death metal now - most non-Christian death metal is about Satan.



    They just change the rules as they go along.
    Not all the Christian churches strongly opposed rock music. Mostly all that was said was that some of the dance moves were indecent. In truth, the same things have been said by older generations since at least the 1920s... and probably long before that. My mom was a teenager when rock music came out, and her church (which is still one of the strictest Christian denominations) never officially condemned it. Dancing was an issue in some churches from the 1890s, which was long before rock existed.



    So I'd have to ask you for your proof that all Christians and all churches came out against rock, because I'd say based on what I've read and heard that other than a few older people having issues with the "loud" music "kids" were listening to, and Elvis' hip-gyrating, rock wasn't an issue. Until the 1980s, there was very little controversy regarding any kind of music, and even in the 80s, only some Christian groups came out against rock. Most didn't care one way or another.



    So really, nothing's changed. Christian rock has existed since at least the early 70s, and it's never been an issue.Why Is Rock And Roll ok Now?
    Sometimes they still do. Take Marilyn Manson for example. But they sorta stopped because more and more people were getting into it. **** Christians. I LOVE MY ROCK N ROLL!!!! And they use Christian "rock" groups to make it look like you can "love jesus- but still rock on!" Its stupid. Rock n roll was made for rebellion, to question society and go against relgion. Them implying its ok is really just them contradicting themselves. **** them.
    Christians did what they always do.

    If you can't beat it down, absorb it.

    Give them time and they will be saying they invented it.Why Is Rock And Roll ok Now?
    if i recall correctly, R %26amp; R was just stolen gospel music with secular lyrics stuffed into it.

    What exactly is rock and roll?

    We%26lt;my group and I%26gt; need an idea of what it was when it first started. we need and idea of what it was like, such as the style, the artists and the fashion. Please be specific, and don"t give answers about you liking it or not.What exactly is rock and roll?
    The start:

    Well it all started in the 50's, evolved from Country, Blues and what we call now R%26amp;B.



    Back then it was called "be-bop" or down here in the South, "***** spirituals." (no racism intended).

    What all started it were a few artists such as Fats Domino, Little Richard, Sam Cook, Erline Harris,



    The artists:

    Buddy Holly, Bill Haley and Chuck Berry. Just a few.



    It was heavily preached against by the church and some radio stations banned it, but soon enough it evolved into a worldwide phenomenon.



    The fashion:

    Most back then wore the traditional suit and tie.
    The link gives you loads of info about the origins, style, examples and much more.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_and_ro鈥?/a>What exactly is rock and roll?
    Music that's awesome (Not to be confued with being Rick Rolled) xD



    I don't know that much about the origin, but it mainly began with bands like The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix in the 1960's (you might want to do a bit about woodstock in your project, it was a huge festival), which are bands that are now 'classic rock'. It was a bit hippie-ish back then so the main fashion was the frills, bell bottoms, etc. The 70's was bands like Van Halen, and was the eginning of NBWoHM (New British wave of heavy metal, with metal being a branch off of rock of course) with bands like Black Sabbath, and Iron Maiden, and bands getting considerably heavier. (Fashion mostly ripped jeans, and spandex for many bands, which also went into the 80s) The 1980's was the takeover of grunge, glam, punk, and thrash. Glam was pretty much heavy metal with big hair, (like WASP, motley crue, twisted sister etc). It was the main birth of biker boots and leather.Thrash Metal are bands like Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer. 90's were the birth of many Nu Metal bands, and also the time that many bands were beaten by punk and underground. Skinny jeans, etc. Then you have now with nickleback, disturbed, and A7x -_____________-



    Hope i helped ^^



    Back then Metal was also called a bit satanic back then with parents, like Slayer and Kiss. And if you want to look it up just google the filty 15 i believe it is...
    Rock %26amp; Roll began in the 50's. Chuck Berry was considered rock %26amp;roll with his dance moves as well as musical stylings on his guitar. Elvis Presley was even considered the King of Rock %26amp; Roll. Elvis the Pelvis. Being on the Ed Sullivan Show, was the place to be to showcase new talent back in the day. They wouldn't show Elvis from the waist down. Due to his movements it was considered vulgar. Jerry Lee Lewis/Little Richard were over the top with their Piano Playing and their Antics as they played. Buddy Holly was the one that came up with the idea of putting orchestra with the Rock music to create a new sound. The Big Bopper. Have you ever seen LaBamba movie, Buddy Holly Story or even the old tv show Happy Days. those would give you a better idea about rock%26amp;roll and the fashion. Poodle skirts, Drive-Ins ( like our sonic of today) but, the waitress would come to your car on roller skates to serve your food. If the guy would be interested in a girl being his girlfriend he'd ask her to "Go Steady" he might give her his letterman sweater ( sports team sweater). The bikers would wear leather bomber jackets, boots, greased back hair. Rock %26amp; Roll was considered "Evil" to a lot of people back then. Noise if you will. Hope that was off to a good start. Take care. Good LuckWhat exactly is rock and roll?

    "Rock" vs "Rock and Roll": Are they the same? Is one more inclusive than the other?

    I had a discussion about this with my friend a while back.



    Is "Rock" the big genre name and "Rock and Roll" is a subgenre/division of it?

    Or is it the other way around?

    Or are they the same thing?



    BQ: Favorite "Rock" band?

    BQ2: Favorite "Rock and Roll" band?"Rock" vs "Rock and Roll": Are they the same? Is one more inclusive than the other?
    I think of "Rock and Roll" as the 50's stuff like Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly (and then the early forms of British Invasion bands etc.) which was the primordial stepping stone to "Rock" in all it's diverse forms. I'm not sure if you could say R%26amp;R continued as a subgenre of the now broader "Rock", or if it died as Rock was born.



    BQ: King Crimson, indeed, the fact that they can be called "Rock" is a testament to it's diversity.

    BQ2: Early Beatles
    It's not so simple question, because both terms have many different meanings.



    In the traditional meaning both words mean just the same ("rock" is just a shorter form of "rock and roll") - the whole group of many different kinds of music, which include for example: earliest rock (e.g. Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Little Richard), British Invasion music (The Beatles, The Rolling Stones), psychedelic rock (Jimi Hendrix, The Doors), punk rock (Sex Pistols, Ramones), grunge (Nirvana), modern rock (The White Stripes, Muse), Heavy Metal (Metallica, Slayer, Behemoth) and many, many other divisions.



    But nowadays those terms are also often used to call only one division of rock (in traditional meaning). Sometimes when people say "rock and roll" they are thinking only about the oldest form (Berry, Presley, Richard). And when they say "rock" they are thinking about the music that was invented in 60s (mainly by The Beatles) and newer styles (but usually without the most distant genres like punk or metal).



    Recently some people even started to say that sub-genres called "hard rock", "psychedelic rock", "alternative rock" etc. are not "rock" (to be honest, I often laugh at them).



    Also some people may say that "rock" or "rock and roll" is the whole division of music including the oldest artists like Berry, Presley, newer like Beatles or Stones, and everything newer (White Stripes, Muse etc.), but excluding punk and metal (maybe also grunge or something other).



    As you see, it is all messed up, because some people try to change the meaning of words from time to time. But I strongly recommend to use terms "rock" and "rock and roll" in the first, traditional meaning. Professional musicians usually use it in this way.



    BQ(2): My favourite rock artists are: Chuck Berry, Neu!, Jimi Hendrix."Rock" vs "Rock and Roll": Are they the same? Is one more inclusive than the other?
    it's just a name...it's all rock and roll to me. they are the same thing, but if you wanted to call one more inclusive it would be rock and roll just by virtue of the fact it was the first label given.



    ba: paul butterfield blues band

    Rock and Roll is 50's early Rock, Rock is what it has grown into. A giant genre.

    er... neither?



    Save your time and money for GOOD music?



    just a thought though.Should i get kid rock rock and roll jesus or should i just get the all summer long single?
    well out pics are similar on here so listen to me ;)

    I got the single, really liked it, then bought the album, its really worth getting, my favourite song on it is called Roll On. you should buy/download it :)
    Why not save your money and instead get your ears syringed?

    That song,and Kid Rock,are offensive to both the eyes and ears.Should i get kid rock rock and roll jesus or should i just get the all summer long single?
    Album! Only buy it, not download it. :)



    All Summer Long rocks though~%26lt;3
    Neither, just get the original Sweet Home Alabama singleShould i get kid rock rock and roll jesus or should i just get the all summer long single?
    if you like both then you should get both



    i think you should go for some iron maiden or something instead though :)
    All Summer Long
    Both definitely.

    Why do you even have to ask this!!
    you should download both =D

    Who do you consider to be the greatest song writer in Rock and Roll?

    john lennonWho do you consider to be the greatest song writer in Rock and Roll?
    Don Van Vliet aka Captain Beefheart. Who else could compose inspired lunacy like "Neon Meat Dream of a Octa-fish", "The Host The Ghost The Most Holy-O", "Woe-is-uh-me-bop", and "I'm Gonna Booglarize You, Baby"? But if you're looking for real poetry, then go with Leonard Cohen.

    I think I would agree with Lennon and Bob Dylan, but I feel like everyone is leaving a significant one out.



    Freddie Mercury
    There are a few.



    Woody Guthrie

    theres plenty more i forgot
    People forget what real rock and roll is these days.

    So, I'm going to say Chuck Berry. He pretty much invented it.
    John Lennon, Bob Dylan
    PAUL SIMON
    John Lennon
    Bob Dylan
    Paul Simon. Without question, for fifty years.
    Kurt Cobain.



    'Nuff said. Just listen to the lyrics of Lithium.

    What is the ultimate rock and roll song?

    I mean a real masterpiece. Inspiring, driving lyrics. Soaring melody. Stood the test of time. Not your personal favorite at the moment, i mean a real masterpiece. Right now, I'd have to go with Born To Run by Bruce SpringsteenWhat is the ultimate rock and roll song?
    For slow rock: Hotel California by The Eagles. Soaring, subtle poetic, stands the test of time. Incredible guitar playing, solid drum line, just enough angst in the vocals.



    For fast rock: Katmandu by Bob Seger. Simple yet complex. Drives you - great road driving song.



    For overall - Freebird by Lynard Skynard.. Listen to the lyrics, listen to the complexity of the drumming. Listen to the guitars. Listen to the band work together as the song transitions from slow, fast, loud, soft, rythmn changes, try air guitaring or drumming to see what I mean...
    free birdWhat is the ultimate rock and roll song?
    "Old Time Rock and Roll"-Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band
    I think ROCKWhat is the ultimate rock and roll song?
    I Love Rock and Roll....by: Joan Jet
    in the air of the night phil collins
    The Ultimate Rock 'n Roll song in my opinion is Teenage Kicks by The Undertones.
    STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN~LED ZEPPELIN
    "Satisfaction" - The Rolling Stones
    "You Really Got Me" The Kinks
    Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll by Iggy Pop



    Bang Your Head - AC/DC



    Old Time Rock and Roll - already mentioned



    You Can't Always Get What You Want - Stones
    Turn the Page by Bob Seger
    i dont have an ultimate rock and roll song....



    but here are some great masterpieces in my opinion:



    iron man-black sabbath

    war pigs/luke's wall-black sabbath

    master of puppets-metallica

    to live is to die-metallica

    question!-system of a down

    soldier side-system of a down

    masters of war-bob dylan

    hurricane-bob dylan



    thats all i can think of right now
    I would say " Hotel California" By the Eagles as the slower rock song and "Life in the Fast Lane" By the Eagles as the faster rock song...

    Elvis is the undisputed king of rock and roll, and I'm not sure why.?

    I have always heard that Elvis is the king, but he wasn't the greatest musician, and he didn't write all of his own songs which docks major points in my book. I'm curious as to why others such as Chuck Berry didn't inherit the title. Please explain.Elvis is the undisputed king of rock and roll, and I'm not sure why.?
    "Describe Elvis Presley? He was the greatest who ever was, is or ever will be."-Chuck Berry





    "I wasn't just a fan, I was his brother. He said I was good and I said he was good; we never argued about that. Elvis was a hard worker, dedicated, and God loved him. Last time I saw him was at Graceland. We sang Old Blind Barnabus together, a gospel song. I love him and hope to see him in heaven. There'll never be another like that soul brother."-James Brown



    "Elvis was God-given, there's no other explanation. A Messiah comes around every few thousand years, and Elvis was it this time."-Little Richard



    "A lot of people have accused Elvis of stealing the black man's music, when in fact, almost every black solo entertainer copied his stage mannerisms from Elvis."-Jackie Wilson
    I agree with everything David said. I don't get it. I can't even stand his singing voice, the way he sung. There are others I'd much rather listen to. I just do not like his music. My grandmother is always talking about him and what does she say "he was fine".

    *Add* I don't like Chuck Berry either. He's an arrogrant pr**k and all his songs sound exactly the same.Elvis is the undisputed king of rock and roll, and I'm not sure why.?
    I honestly think he inherited the name because of his stupid dancing, but that's just me. There were much better musicians at the time, and there have been much better musicians since he's passed on. I don't consider him the king at all.
    Mostly to do with popularity.Elvis is the undisputed king of rock and roll, and I'm not sure why.?
    It's because he was (and still is) the most popular rock 'n' roll artist.
    he was white

    What do you think the best rock and roll song of the 60s was?

    "Only the Lonely" by Roy Orbison (1960).



    You know you have a great song when Springsteen pays homage to a song and you forget what he's singing and remember instead the song he's referencing.What do you think the best rock and roll song of the 60s was?
    Stairway to Heaven
    Time has Come today.

    by the Chambers BrothersWhat do you think the best rock and roll song of the 60s was?
    Sunshine Of Your Love -Cream
    Bob Dylan - Like a Rolling StoneWhat do you think the best rock and roll song of the 60s was?
    Oh. I definitely second Like a Rolling Stone.

    That's pretty much the greatest song ever.
    I'm sorry but picking one rock n roll song of the 1960s, is like picking only one person on earth to hang out with forever. It's impossible! It's the greatest decade for rock, and music in whole. It influences us all today, still.



    The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry (even though he was more 1950s), Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendirx, Cream. Eric Clapton, The Doors, Bob Dylan, etc. The list goes on and on!



    From British Invasions to Psychadelia to Woodstock, one song is plainly impossible (:

    Need some help for history of rock and roll :D?

    TRUE OR FALSE :

    1. Before it was known as Rock and Roll, Rhythm and Blues music was often referred to as 'race music.'

    2.Prior to the development of Rock and Roll young people generally listened to the same music as their parents

    3.Pop music radio stations in the early 50s did not compete with Rhythm and Blues radio stations for listeners

    4.Compared to Rhythm and Blues singers white pop music singers were far less concerned about the emotional energy of their performances.

    5.Rockabilly music was created at Chess Records in Chicago.Need some help for history of rock and roll :D?
    1) FALSE. Even though I'm only 29, I am an expert on this era of music. Rock %26amp; Roll is a combination of Black Music, which included: Blues, Jump Blues, Jazz, %26amp; Boogie-Woogie all better know as "Race Music" %26amp; White music which was basically County, Western Swing, Blue Grass, all of which were called "Hillbilly Music", as well as other musical influences, but those are the primary influences. Rock n Roll is NOT BLACK MUSIC. and I'm a BLACK woman saying this, I do not care how many black people want to rewrite history, Rock and Roll is a combination of both cultures. Rock n Roll is the marriage of Black and White music and culture equally.



    2) TRUE



    3) TRUE. Pop Music in the 1950's was geared toward white people. Rhythm %26amp; Blues (it wasn't called that in the 1950's but I know what you mean) was geared toward black people. There were exceptions, Nat King Cole, Louis Armstrong, Lena Horne, Sammy Davis Jr, and others (but these were about the most popular) each were black artists that appealed to both the white %26amp; black community.



    4) TRUE %26amp; FALSE. Stop saying Rhythm and Blues, that genre of music did not exist in the 1950's it started in the late 1960's, although has it's roots in the 1940's. But to answer your question, True and False. Most black singers of the day showed more emotion in their music, because they sang of tough times, and you could feel it in their words and voice. White American singers, sang with less emotion, but with more romance. White Latin singers of the day (Italian %26amp; Spanish mostly) sang with both a lot of emotion and a lot of romance.



    5) FALSE. Rockabilly has absolutely no ties, at all, to Chess Records nor Chicago. Chess Records was where Chuck Berry %26amp; Bo Diddley, among others, recorded their songs. Rockabilly started at Sun Records in Memphis Tennessee.Need some help for history of rock and roll :D?
    1. True. because, only African Americans did those genres, until Elvis Presley.

    2.Most likely, since the quantity of music was so thin before rock and roll

    3. idk.

    4. err.. idk.

    5. FalseNeed some help for history of rock and roll :D?
    1. true

    How do I put distance between me and a long time friend who has too much sex drugs and rock and roll around?

    Cut back on phone calls %26amp; visits until there are neither on your part.How do I put distance between me and a long time friend who has too much sex drugs and rock and roll around?
    youre just gonna have to separate your self from them i had to do it to my friends when they started to act the wrong way and get involved with the wrong things
    WHEN THEY CALL TELL THEM UP FROM HOW YOU FEEL AND YOUR NOT ABOUT ALL THE CRAP THEY DO.

    SAY TO HER--BYE NOW SAY BYE

    BYE BYEHow do I put distance between me and a long time friend who has too much sex drugs and rock and roll around?
    You don't have to be mean but you must be firm when you tell the old friend that you two no longer have anything in common. Keep phone calls brief, don't meet her for lunch, don't send her a Christmas card or emails. Cut it off. I had to drop an old friend too. I could tolerate her wild ways when we were young but just don't have the patience to listen to her crap anymore. I don't hate her, just don't want to have anything to do with her.
    Be honest and tell her you love her, and your moving on because you don't intend to live the life style she is. It's destructive, and you have better things to do and places to go. Then stay away. You are smart because you see what has happened! Get while the getting is good. You won't be sorry. Good Luck! Have a very Merry Christmas!How do I put distance between me and a long time friend who has too much sex drugs and rock and roll around?
    Sometimes you just have to shut them out of your life. I did that over 20 years ago and have never regretted a minute of it.
    Be honest without being rude ...I rather some one just tell me then make me guess......
    Just do it. Not a really easy or nice way to go about it. Ignore her calls, stop spending time with her, try not to go to parties and events where you know she'll be. It won't be nice and it might not be pretty, but if that's what you need to do then just get it over with.
    Just do it...don't let it stress you out thinking and worrying what to say.

    Just tell her you don't want to be around any of the above.

    A long time friend would be difficult but your better off with out

    her around.
    Just gradually stop calling or returning calls. When they ask you to go out with them tell them that you are not into that scene. Be honest and tell them that you are not interested in being around drugs. I would not rule out the sex and rock and roll though.
    When I was going through a divorce almost 5 years ago, my lawyer recommended I see a shrink. It wasn't because I had "head" problems, but I needed to show some expenses on my part since I made more money than my ex. Anyways, my best friend(of 25 years) had already been single for a few years and she was into drinking and one night stands.She couldn't wait until we started partying together again.I went out a few times with her, but I knew that lifestyle was not for me, but I didn't know how to get out of it. My shrink said some people are toxic and no matter how long you have known them, you have to keep away from them to stay healthy. I finally told my friend that we were at different places in our lives right now, and I needed some space, because I could not do the night life. I told her I would be willing to go shopping or lay by the pool during the day if she needed me to talk. But, she has cut all ties with me. It makes me sad, but a big part of me is relieved.
    I can't relate, none of my friends do that, or ever did.



    But I do work with a Drug Rehab place, and you need to be straight, but gentle, and tell her you can't go on seeing her. Maybe that will help her get her life together.
    Tell her straight out.
    You just say goodbye. The explanation you gave us is the best ever. It's the truth and straight to the point. You are too mature to deal with this and you don't have to. Smart woman!
    Just be honest with her/him and tell them straight out you do not want to be around that stuff. good luck

    Call some places in there that aren't obvious mainstream places like FYE and whatnot.



    Look for local independent record stores.



    Usually these places have the best selection, as well as the best price. They're just largely overshadowed by crap in the mall and whatnot.

    rapWhat do you prefer 1950's rock and roll or todays rap?
    1950's rock





    rap is always negative and sexual
    50's rock, today's rap is too violent and sexist.What do you prefer 1950's rock and roll or todays rap?
    1950's rock and roll. Rap is so sexually demeaning and negative. If there were nothing but rap to listen to I would never listen to music if you can call it music.
    50s and 60s and 70s......rap sucksWhat do you prefer 1950's rock and roll or todays rap?
    neither.



    I prefer 90s rap

    1950s Rock and Roll is one of my favourite types of music ever!



    Seems like it's no as popular today- i got a Buddy Holly Album for 96p.

    Good for me, Bad for decent music.
    Even though the question focuses on music, the racial overtone is so apparent I can't help but laugh.lol



    I like Danny prefer 90's rap.
    Today's REAL rap, not that crunk lil wayne bullshit. 90's rap for sure though.



    As for rock and roll I prefer the less mainstream bands of the 60's/70's/80's, Joy Division, David Bowie, The Smiths, The Kinks, The Doors etc.
    Mainstream rap sucks, and I don't like the way it portrays Black people. I like today's "underground" hip-hop better, check this out...

    edit: And Latrell and Danny are right 90's rap was better, but today's undergroud hip-hop is on point, too.

    people who chose 50's Rock over Rap simply because of lyrical content are just idiots who probaby dont even understand the music. Rock in the 50's was JUST AS SEXUAL as Rap is today...the very name Rock %26amp; Roll is a euphamism for sexual intercourse. The only reason it seems tame today is because most people living today are not up on the 50's slang so they dont understand the lyrics: Rock %26amp; Roll was under heavy fire from conservative groups back in the day for being so explicit.



    Anyone who can call Chuck Berry or Lil Richard or Jerry Lee Lewis innocent and kind-hearted is an idiot...they were some of the most sexual people of their time.



    EXAMPLE: Jerry lee lewis "Whole Lotta Shakin Goin' On"



    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yRdDnrB5…



    he's talkin bout havin a "bull by tha horns"....but it aint cows he's talkin about. There's "chickens in tha barn"...but it aint hen's he's talkin bout. People are so quick to judge rap because the face of today's rap is Black, urban, poor and vexed at the world...but they ignoring all the blatant sexuality in their own society and instead point the finger at us.





    Jerry Lee Lewie is my man, but I aint gonna stand here and say that his music is clean and innocent, cuz it's obviously not. And that's why I like it, because real good music talks about real sh*t that we can understand. He's talkin bout "shakin goin on" but i cant remember the last time i shook for no reason. But i can remember the last time i had "chicken in a barn" lol.
    both!

    i like rockabilly and not really "todays" rap more like 90's rap.
    1950's rock...heck anything is better than rap!
    To the first comment..not all rap is always negative and sexual..a lot of it yes,but there is some that has meaning..Flobots rap...they are about something. There are many others,but the flobots are a good example.



    I love Jimmy Hendrix too!..I love both Rock and Roll and Rap.
    No comparison: 1950s rock



    However, I will repeat; today's "underground" rap is the good rap of today; people who don't know better will say that all of today's rap is garbage



    Today you have to search for the good music
    The fifties rock and roll has an innocence rap lacks today--however rap works with the issues, what people REALLY think no matter how 'bad' it is to admit. Also, rap can work for everybody. My favorite rapper is tobyMac.

    Why was David Bowie inducted in the rock and roll hall of fame?

    He was a great musician, %26amp; performance artist w/ great songs in the 70s.

    Plus he had a knack for finding other artists of caliber: he found Lou Reed %26amp; Alice Cooper.

    Heck that lightning symbol on Lady Gaga's face?

    THAT's a Bowie trademark from back-in-the-day!Why was David Bowie inducted in the rock and roll hall of fame?
    because he was pretty much fronting Art/Glam rock in the 70s?

  • In 130 years from now if History remembers anyone person from Rock and Roll who is it most likly to be?

    Elvis Presley

    His Image (More so than his music) Is so instilled in 1900's Popular Culture it's unbelievable. Everything from the legendary Andy Warhol paintings, to 1950's popular photography, The conspiracy theories in later 1900's of him being alive and all the sightings, and of course all of the 1950's Media writings that reference his controversy.

    The Beatles are a band not a person. Though I wish I could say Bob Dylan I know that isn't reality.In 130 years from now if History remembers anyone person from Rock and Roll who is it most likly to be?
    If there's going to be a single person or band, I'd have to say the Beatles. They are already remembered by everyone in every generation today and they are the most famous band ever and I don't think they'll ever disappear. A few of my personal favorites which I think could last are Pink Floyd and Queen, although I don't think they can stand up to the Beatles at all.
    Yeah it's gotta be Elvis between his 25 Hollywood films and the hundreds of songs he recorded he is probably the most recognized voice in history.In 130 years from now if History remembers anyone person from Rock and Roll who is it most likly to be?
    Definitely Elvis Presley. You can say "uh huh" a certain way, and everybody knows you're doing an Elvis impression. He's as ingrained in the pop culture landscape as Mickey Mouse or Superman.

    What is the difference between R&B and Rock and Roll?

    Oversimplified difference:



    R%26amp;B: soul music, mostly performed by blacks.

    R%26amp;R: mostly performed by whites.What is the difference between R%26amp;B and Rock and Roll?
    rock %26amp; roll is highly involved into rockabilly music, so if has to do with country music fused with rock, and the r%26amp;b is often related to blues and it's melancholic, so there are two very different genres in the result, odelay!!What is the difference between R%26amp;B and Rock and Roll?
    R%26amp;R started as R%26amp;B in latee 40's,early 50's. As R%26amp;B generally meant popular black music,which included nearly all genres apart from gospel and jazz,a new name was needed,alan freed used R%26amp;R in 51 for a particular style of black R%26amp;B. Songs like.

    The record that is generally noted as first R%26amp;R hit..Rocket88 by Jackie Brenston ( part of Ike Turners band) was R%26amp;B. Rock around the clock. Hound Dog were originaly by black artists. The likes of Chuck Berry could be classed as both.

    i honestly think i have nothing to work with, but clothing ideas would help, and i was wondering if anyone had hair style ideas at the least? thank you sooooo muchWhat to wear for school tomorrow? (theme day?) Rock and Roll?

    Well I'm going for a punk look. Just my impression for rock and roll, haha.



    You could wear skinnny jeans. I would recommend black or a dark pair. I would wear a band tee. Then, a pair of converse, any color would be pretty much okay. For your hair, You could just wear it down, however you normally do and add like some hair pieces with bows or clips, etc ... It'll give you that more punk look.



    Hopefully I helped, Enjoy your day!

    Elvis. His influence on rock 'n' roll was immense, and he was also very influential to The Beatles themselves.
    Elvis popularized the music, but the Beatles perfected it. I'm a fan of both, but the Beatles influenced rock n roll even until today.Did the Beatles or Elvis have a bigger impact on Rock and Roll?
    Elvis had the bigger impact on Rock and Roll.

    The Beatles had the bigger impact on Rock.

    I wish I knew. I understand there are a few very pricey tickets being re-sold but good luck trying to find them. For some reason the Hall of Fame has returned to an invitation-only show at New York's Waldorf-Astoria for this year's ceremony after moving to a public access stadium show last year in Cleveland.

    Should the Rock and Roll hall of fame change its name?

    I mean ABBA, Michael Jackson and Madonna are in it, and they're not rock %26amp; roll, they're pop. And Lady Gaga's meat dress is being shown their, and shes not rock %26amp; roll either. A more appropriate name would be "Whatever Music is Popular and Mainstream Hall of Fame" or "Rock %26amp; Pop Hall of Fame"Should the Rock and Roll hall of fame change its name?
    I love this question. It usually means, "Why does the R%26amp;R Hall of Fame have people in there I don't happen to like?"

    Two points:

    (1) If you actually read the induction criteria for the HOF you'd know that it's not about who rocks hardest, it's about influence and significance on the industry. R%26amp;R did not spring from a vacuum. It's roots are in pop, country, jazz, r%26amp;b, you name it. To say, X should be in there cuz they're "real rockers" but not the influences that made their music possible is really short-sighted,

    (2) Do you even know what R%26amp;R is? The term was first used in Cleveland (which is why the HOF is there) by record exec Leo Mintz and DJ Alan Freed in the 50s (who, in the best rock tradition, was later charged with inciting a riot, accepting bribes from record companies and died an alcoholic). For Freed R%26amp;R was r%26amp;b flavoured dance music. The acts he showcased at his R%26amp;R Dance Parties, were people like Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, the Big Bopper, Chuck Berry and a bunch of others that, if you listened to them at all, you'd say well that's just pop. R%26amp;R has evolved and reinvented itself many times since then and, without all the acts you mentioned, it wouldn't be what it is today. If you don't care about that, fair enough. But that's what the R%26amp;RHOF is about, not your narrow taste in music.
    The three acts you mention are among the biggest selling music acts in history:

    ABBA - 375,000,000 (second biggest selling band, after the Beatles, also a pop band in the HOF)

    Jackson - 750,000,000 (second biggest male vocalist, after Elvis Presely, also in the HOF)

    Madonna - 300,000,000 (biggest selling female vocalist)

    If you don't believe these acts influenced R%26amp;R, it may be time you moved out of your cave.Should the Rock and Roll hall of fame change its name?
    The "We ignore Progressive Rock/Heavy Metal bands, induct some artists of a genre but ignore more qualified artists of same genre and have no set criteria for induction because WE don't know what are criteria are!"...Hall of Fame



    A few bands that desperately need to be in:



    Chicago-I mean really? Innovative, Popular, 35 Top 40 Hits



    Moody Blues-Innovative,Popular, 13 Top 40 Hits



    Rush-Synonomous with progressive Rock



    Brook Benton-A lot of less qualified artists of his genre are in. I mean Percy Sledge has at most 2 songs that people know and he is in!
    It shouldn't exist.

    It's bullsh!t, like The Sex Pistols said. The Sex Pistols turning up and saying how crap it is was the highlight of that hall of crap.



    Pretty much anything Rolling Stone does is rubbish. Their 100 Greatest Artists of All Time, for example. How can Kanye West be even in the top ten thousand?! My dog's dry roasted sh!t must have more talent than him.Should the Rock and Roll hall of fame change its name?
    I agree ... If they're going to have a Rock N' Roll Of Fame there should only be bands that are true Rock N' Roll like Led Zeppelin or Alice Cooper. They should have a separate Hall Of Fame for "Pop" talents
    Note, except MiJac
    Johnny Rotten did`nt even show up when the Pistols were inducted. I think that pretty much says it all.
    it was never about the Rock N Roll :D



    ..ever seen how lame the event is? a bunch of snooty old rich people.
    Yes,change it to, a bunch of idiots choosing who gets in.



    I mean where's RUSH come on.
    yup. i can't believe they are putting that meat dress there? WHY!!?? its pointless and dumb... ugh

    none. nobody plays plastic on a needle anymore, they have wizened up.
    I agree with Larry. The better condition it's in, the more valuable it is. And I know for a fact that if it still has the vintage stickers on it, that jacks the price up a couple hundred or thousand.



    Bob Dylan's album "The Freewhellin' Bob Dylan" is worth $35,000 in mint condition.



    John Lennon %26amp; Yoko Ono's album Double Fantasy (Geffen US Album, 1980) is worth $525,000 mint!!!!!

    Will any modern bands eventually get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

    You know, bands like Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Creed, Three Days Grace, etc.?Will any modern bands eventually get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
    I definitely think that the Chili Peppers should be inducted very soon... they've been around since the early 80s, and have been popular since the very early 90s.



    Nirvana should also be inducted, although it will be very sad since Kurt isn't really available...



    Green Day and the rest of 'em have been around for a while too, so I guess they should be inducted too, eventually.Will any modern bands eventually get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
    Nirvana will be eligibel for rock n roll hall of fame induction in 2013 but hall of fame nowadays has become a joke instead of inducting bands that really deserve to be like dire straits and all they inducted madonna so its just that they will induct whoever is popular during that time so the thing is as you ve mentioned all those bands will be inducted sooner or later ALL OF THEMWill any modern bands eventually get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
    Haha I was just having this conversation with my sister. I think Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and the White Stripes will be inducted into the Hall of Fame. I don't necessarily like all of these bands, but they are very influential in my opinion.
    Foo Fighters for sure.

    And i think arcade fire should definitely be included, along with The strokes

    Rock And Roll

    When Rock arrived on the music charts in the 1950's, a merging of African-American and White music, it made a huge impact on society. As a general rule I am not heavily into music, but I was drawn to Rock for some inexplicable reason. It is just the music I like. This genre will be difficult to write about because the origin of Rock is unclear; there are traces of Rock's style back into the 19th Century. It is also a very broad subject and I will have to compress a lot of information into as few pages as possible. Be that as it may, Rock is, in my opinion the best music genre on the charts.



    There is so much information on Rock that I will have to have questions I want to find the answers to about the music. My first question will be, "What instruments are commonly used in a rock band?" This will not be hard to answer as it is a very easy question that has a definite answer. Read more here:

    Will there be rock and roll in heaven?

    I hope so.Will there be rock and roll in heaven?
    Even if there is, I have sinned way too much to ever get there. I'm damned to musical hell where I'll probably have to listen to Barry Manilow for the rest of eternity...
    As an Atheist, I believe there is no heaven, and even if there is I will not be going there. For the sake of the Q, I will say that there will be Harps certainly, played by Cherubs.Will there be rock and roll in heaven?
    This should answer your question. ROCK AND ROLL HEAVEN RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSi6WigyU鈥?/a>

    When did the Rock and roll hall of fame officially open?

    I need a specific date which I can't find... I know it's in 1995 thoughWhen did the Rock and roll hall of fame officially open?
    September 2, 1995 although the Hall of Fame foundation was created on April 20, 1983.

    Is Cleveland getting the shaft by not having the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceromonies held in Cleveland?

    I live in Cleveland, and I feel like we are again looked down upon by the rest of the country by not allowing us to hold the induction ceromonies in Cleveland. I know that I am not the only one. No disrespect to New York where the ceromonies are held now.Is Cleveland getting the shaft by not having the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceromonies held in Cleveland?
    Let me preface this by saying that I'm from Cleveland also. Personally I think the Rock and Roll industry is getting the shaft by having the HOF in Cleveland.



    There's nothing There. No one wants to come to "the mistake by the lake". Many performers / entertainers won't even come to cleveland because the taxes are too high.



    Look at it sometime, they'll be in Pittsburgh one night and Detroit the next. Right past Cleveland. What a shame.



    The HOF inductees rarely even come to the ceremony.
    Yeah, its a real shame the induction ceremony isn't held in Cleveland. An event like this would really be good for the local hospitality industry. It doesn't even make much sense for the museum, because the induction ceremony gets so much PR and press coverage. The museum would benefit more if they brought all this PR and coverage to where the museum actually is.



    While agree that we are getting the shaft, I don't know if it is because we are necessarily looked down upon. I think the real issue is that logisticly it is simply easier to have the event in New York. But I strongly believe that though it may be more difficult to have this event in Cleveland than New York, it should be done that way anyway.Is Cleveland getting the shaft by not having the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceromonies held in Cleveland?
    Yes, it's a shame that the inductions don't occur there, because the museum is great. However, the mayor needs to invest more money into cleaning up the city and making it a must see destination beyond the museum.
    we just laugh anymore.Is Cleveland getting the shaft by not having the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceromonies held in Cleveland?
    I asked the same question last night, and it bums me out big time. Why even have it here. They say we don't have the best hotels and things of that nature, but the Ritz seems pretty ok to me, must just be the Cleveland curse, Van Halen got inducted and i would have enjoyed that as well, hopefully one day this will all change.
    I totally agree with you. We're the home of rock-n-roll, but we're not good enough to hold the induction ceremonies or concerts. Oh, but we can buy tickets to watch the concert on a screen at the rock-n-roll hall of fame! Bull****

    What is rock and roll?

    I have a rock and roll themed dance coming up, and I have no idea what it is. Does anyone have any suggestions on what a grade eleven girl can wear/how to do her hair/makeup? Many thanks! :)What is rock and roll?
    firstly: if you don't know what rnr is then you have not LIVED!

    Now.

    Hair: huge, loads of volume. curly if you wanna look like jimmy page. straight if u wanna look like David Bowie when he was in the Labyrinth.

    Shoes: PLATFORMS or converse, but PLATFORMS.

    Clothes: if you want to go for the bowie glam look I would wear a sparkly 80s suit jacket (even if you are female) and then leggings or skinny jeans. if you are going for the tough rocker look then baggy or bell bottom jeans, with a tshirt.

    makup, smokey eyes or draw a lightening bolt on your face.
    hmmmm so you're going to have a rock and roll themed party and not even know what it is....thats like frenching 20 guys and not knowing how to french...haha!



    everyone has their own definition of rock and roll..everyone has their own ways and beliefs on what is and what isn't. Do some reasearch. I can tell you for one that rock and roll is about being yourself and not giving a damn about what others think..you know like that one cat who said "I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I am not" or some ****...



    Now in days, everything sounds the same...everyone dresses the same..theres no borderline of what is and what isnt..but back then, if you loook at ozzie, and metallica, pantera, white zombie, the rolling stones, all those bands....there's a huge difference on sound and everything. There's diversity. Now, everything just sounds and looks the same.

    Best Winter Shoes to have the Indie Rock n Roll look for a guy, 21 years old?

    I live in Europe and it's really snowy.



    I want to get a pair of leather shoes that has the Rock and Roll look.



    I love the Zara leather shoes but I think they look too mature on me.



    I wear skinny jeans (not so tight), 6 ft tall, slim body.Best Winter Shoes to have the Indie Rock n Roll look for a guy, 21 years old?
    Zara has Childish-looked leather shoes too, if they look too matured for you......6 ft tall and slim guy, jeaned and boyish, (childish eh.., not too matured....), Rock and roll (dont rock too much, or roll around..) and snowy (wet la...) leather will not be convenient, as snow (moist) will cause growth of "mossy" cells, and too dry will end up with the leather being warped......, unless it is good leather.....

    Rock and Roll rollarcoaster MGM Orlando?

    How scary is Rock and roll rolarcoaster? Also how about tower of Terror?Rock and Roll rollarcoaster MGM Orlando?
    I looked at both lol especailly the tower and there was no way i was going on that .........so for me well scary lol and even my daughter whos honeymoon it was would not go on the tower but she did go on the roller coaster and said it was great. even got herself a pic lol
    i don't like things that make you drop straight down--i tried it but i was shaking for 3 hrs after I got off the ride, and 4 people on line saw me and got off~~sorryRock and Roll rollarcoaster MGM Orlando?
    Tower of Terror isn't scary anymore. It was really cool when it first opened up and it dropped after the first time the doors open! Now, it gets boring after being "bounced" anywhere from 2-5 times....at least, for me anyway. (And I'm terrified of heights - but since it's indoors, that part doesn't really bother me. You only see outside for a second.)
    The Rock and Roller Coaster is just an indoor roller coaster, like Space Mountain. It's wilder than than Space Mountain, but it's not like a Six Flags roller coasters. It's not scary at all.



    The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror is very scary. It's my favorite ride. I went to Disneyland a few months ago where there were no lines and I rode this thing 30 times. I screamed like a girl each time. I'd highly recommend it.Rock and Roll rollarcoaster MGM Orlando?
    They are both very fun rides, but that is my opinion. I personally don't consider them too scary but I can tell you how some people would think of them. Rock and rollercoaster goes upside, is semi-dark, and does go pretty fast. There is nothing about this ride that is "haunted house" scary but if heights/going upside/rollercoasters freighten you then you would consider this ride scary. If not, then you won't. On the other hand, Tower of Terror would scare people who are afraid of heights but also has a little bit of a "haunted house" scary feel. The story line of the ride may scare little kids or people who frieghten easily and there is a free-fall element to this ride so if those things scare you, you may find this ride scary.



    Honestly, whether they are scary is a personal decision and also is based on the age of the person going on the ride. If you can be brave enough to try both, I totally reccommend that you do. They are very good rides.
    I didn't end up going on the Rockin Roller Coaster because I ended up going on the Tower of Terror first and that was it for thrill rides for the day! I guess I didn't like Tower of Terror because I really didn't know what to expect, which I suppose is the thrill of the ride. Best thing about any of these rides is they only last a few moments, so if you don't like them, they will be over fast!
    rock-n-roller coaster not scary at all its really qwich no drops just loops. It was soo much fun i rode it twice first time i was scared because i thought it was going to drop i had my eyes closed but the second it was alot of fun! lol



    tower of terror-a whole nother story. i was so scared on this ride which i also rode twice(why did i do that???) that was the worst ridei ever got on just dropping in pitch black darkness and occasionaly you get to see the sunlight just long enough for them to take a picture or you with a hellified face. but i would ride it again anytime!
    Both rides are scary with a disney flare :) the coaster goes super fast! and the t.o.t takes the giggles out of you cuz of the sudden drops. Dont worry the rides are so much fun and the top 2 best must see rides at MGM studios.
    Since its disney they aren't that scary; they are very creative and fun. I love Mission to Space at Epcot. Very real like simulator..
    I don't want to ruin either for you, but both have "shock" value to them. Scary? If they weren't.... then they'd just be transportation. I recommend them both.
    rock and rollercoaster isnt so much scary but its thrilling its super fast and you would enjoy it all the way.

    tower of terror is scary it drops you down at high speeds, it feels like your jumping out of your skin.
    rock and rollarcoaster isn't scary just fast, the tower of terror i s scary but my son went on it when he was six and loved it we go three times a year and you can't get him of it lol, I'm sure you will be fine
