Rock music started in the 1940s and the 1950s as a fusion of rhythm and blues, gospel music, and country music. Rock music is often associated with heavy instrumentation, reverberating through a sound system, and played by hyperactive musicians wearing all-black garb. This kind of music has enjoyed over half a century of popularity with its strong beat and catchy melody.
Originally known as rock and roll, as branded by disc jockey Alan Feed from Ohio, rock music combined influences resulted in simple blues-based style that was fast and danceable.The electric guitar was played rock and roll style by early rock legends Chuck Berry, Link Wray and Scotty Moore.
