Rock 'n' Roll

Rock music has always influenced teenagers. Especially in 50’s and 60’s, a lot of notable rock bands came out and teenagers enthused. The Beatles also debut in 1962, and the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Mick Jagger, The Who, they were all popular in 60’s.
In this era, rock music had a big influence especially on teenagers as a massage of the lyrics aroused sympathy from them.

Many remarkable things in history of rock music happened in 60’s.
The Beatles released the album “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” in 1967. It is said that it's quite an experimental album in terms of musical sound, instrumental elements.
There was also a big incident in the late 60’s. Brian Jones died at the age of 27 in 1969, who was the guitarist of The Rolling Stones. It’s kind of an urban legend that many rock stars die at young ages like him, such as Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison.
In 70’s, rock music was still growing up with young people.
In the early 80’s, The Rolling Stones came back on a stage after the long break and they are still active.
Also new bands came out such as the Beach Boys, The Queen in the 80's.

Today still many people love rock music and is now listened by from generation to generation, from grandpa to grandson.
