This course, part 1 of a 2-course sequence, examines the history of rock, primarily as it developed in the United States, from the pre-rock days (before 1955) through the late 1960s.
This course covers the music of Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Phil Spector, Bob Dylan, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Cream, and many more artists, with an emphasis on both the cultural context and the music itself.
We will also explore how developments in the music business and in technology helped shape the ways styles developed.

This new style became the music of emerging youth culture and was often associated with teenage rebellion.
