That really shows you have no understanding of rock at all--- because one can like RNR and not like RNB ( many whites) and like RnB but not like RnR ( almost all blacks).
You are talking about the "infancy, whne both blacks and whites were playing a similiar style of music"-- hence, you define the issue so you will win. That was a very brief time, becasue when whites got involved they took all the influences and "created" rock n roll. The Stones were heavily
influenced by RNB -so? Both the Beatles and the Stones covered Buddy Holly,too( Not Fade Away and Words of Love) and Buddy is a long way from RNB.
aka "jungle rhythyms" ????
DO you really think that only blacks have danced to rhythmic music ?
Now you say there is RNR, which lasted for 10 seconds in 1955 and blacks created it... whites played it in the 50s and called it RNR, blacks didn't anymore.. then whites changed it in the 60s... and called it "rnr" still.
You are a moving target, changint the topic, changing definitons, contradicting yourself---
And another distration-- dance music
and a new definition-- race music !
One "foundation--an influence, not the same as ! and now race music is the same as rock music You have defined all these terms as the same thing-- so obviously if "red" means the same to you as "black", no one can convince you they refer to two different things. You just defend yourself b
y running around in circles, playing with the definition of words etc
LUVUREALLY cannot cope with the only black rnr star-- because he said he played for white audiences and blacks did not like his music-- which was RnR !
Johnny Burnette's cover ( 1956)of Tiny Bradshaw's Train Kept a Rollin ( 1951)-- check it out. Tiny's song is typical "black music"-- Johnny takes the song and creates a rock n roll song. Compare the two songs on UTUBE-- ILUVUREALLY just masturbates with words-- anything to avoid learning a
nything
Race music and Doo Wop and RnB and Rock n roll-- are all the exact same thing.
There was no rock music before white musicians created it-- there was no bandwagon to jump on. There are no, zero significant black rnr groups. ZERO. ZERO.ZERO. ZERO. Why--because blacks do not like rock n roll music-- its crazy to think they created a style of music-- then never played it..
Big Mama,Jerry Lee,Big Joe Turner--There's
no black,no white--just the blues&rock&roll!!
Most popular has not been "birthed out of the pain of black people"-- utter nonsense. Heavy metal, hard rock, rock n roll, rockabilly, bluegrass, swing...
Stop the racist attitude toward white people-- get a life
He loved music and never noticed white or black like you. He had many blacks in his band and friends. He was a gift and so is music regardless of colour so f-off
