rock and roll
The eclectic combination of all popular styles, Rock and Roll defined the new movement of music just for music’s sake. Alan Freed first dubbed this combination of blues, soul, country, bluegrass, and jazz, “Rock and Roll” while working as a DJ in the 1950’s. Closely related to Pop, this diverse category is used to describe the wide range of popular music which is alternative to Country and Western.
