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?

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

| I actually thought that jazz was kind of derived from the blues. Blues comes from folk, and rock 'n roll comes the blues. In the 1950s, white boys started playing blues, then in the 60s/70s all the psychedelic/heavy rock/early metal stuff was heavily derived from the blues. |

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.
