Do you believe that rnr is derived from the blues more than it is jazz?(or vise versa)Who do you believe has achieved rnr in it's purest form? Is rnr more of a scream or a harp strum to you? What is rnr to you?

I couldn't agree more.


I just tried doing a search for a book pertinent to the topic but unfortunately couldn't find it. It was a textbook called "Popular Music in the 20th Century" it is very interesting and pretty much traces all popular music back to the blues.

And then Frank said it. And some guy in high school said it to me, but he was probably quoting Iggy.

I agree.
