During the next post we
are going to make a resume of the
history of rock and roll from their origins to the actual time, trying to
include artists and songs most
representative of each moment or artistic movement that took place in the
evolution of rock.

develop are carried to fame for white people, although the inventors have been
others, but it was easier and most popular to triumph in USA at this time being
white than black.
