beatles and rock music

How The Beatles Changed Rock Music Rock music consists of many
individual styles. Even though there is a common spirit among all music
groups, all music made by them are very different. Rock music evolved in
the 1950s and the early 1960s. At that time that Beatles entered the
world of music from Liverpool. Rock music was a large piece of the
centerpiece of a largely rebellious group of young people. Before the era
of the Beatles, Elvis Presley first took Rock 'n' Roll to the public. Elvis
blended the black and white music influence to create this style of Rock
'n' Roll. He commanded a large group of faithful fans. Elvis was the only
singer who was able to rival the Beatles. Even so, the Beatles admired
his music and were greatly influenced by him. The Beatles were pace
setters. Their ensemble were supplemented with solo guitar, rhythm
guitar, bass guitar, drums, sitar, and violins. They took advantage of the
creative possibilities afforded by the multiple track tape recording. They
made rock music into music that were produceable in studios but were
not possible to produce in live performances. They were the "Greatest
show on Earth." They were the biggest concert draws on Earth. Their
music and lyrics changed the lives of a generation and the generation
that followed. Rock 'n' roll was a mixture of blues and country. Its rhythm
seemed to have an amazing power over young people that couldn't be
understood by anyone born before 1940. John Lennon joined Paul
McCartney, Pete Best, and George Harrison to form the hottest group
that was around at that time. Their first hit music was the very well known
song My Bonnie. In 1962, Ringo Starr replaced Pete Best as the
drummer and joined the group on continuing their wonderful future. The
sum of four talents had come together and critical mass has been
achieved when the Epstein published their tape. Their second single
received much more attention from the public and they were given an
invitation to appear live on BBC. The Beatles moved quickly to expand
their national exposure in Britain with a pair of back to back nationwide
tours. By mid 1963, the Beatles had reached nationwide stardom in

England. Even the hairstyle of them became major trends at that time.
They held large concerts and performed at clubs. They became the
hottest things on the pop music scene in England. They began as a
modestly successful musician group and ended the year as show
business legends. John Lennon and Paul McCartney were named
composers of the year. They decided on a tour to United States in 1964
without knowing how the Americans would react to the new type of music.
Beatlemania hit New York on February 7, 1964. Hundreds of people
jammed at the airport. They performed their first concert in America at
CBS television's 53rd street studio. The concert was broadcast live and
attracted the largest one night audience in the history of television up to
that time. The Beatles were described as a British invasion by local and
nationwide newspaper at that time. Their conquest of America was still
remembered as a major turning point in the history of rock 'n' roll. Thanks
to the Beatles, a large amount of opportunities were opened up to new
faces on the market. Many rock bands were able to follow in the
footsteps of the Beatles. Once the Beatles opened up the market in the
United States, this led to further "invasions" of other British rock groups
such as the Kinks and the Rolling Stones. The 1960s rock scene has
begun in February of 1964 when Bob Dylan first met the Beatles. After
that day, nothing in the music world would ever be the same.
