Most Important Moment In Music History?

You don't have to be impressed at all. Acknowledgement is better. Virtually all the music that rab listens to in it's current form would not be possible if RJ decided to stay at home that day.
 
Hehe I could post on this thread forever!
The first day Sinatra stepped up to a mic.
The first time Hendrix picked at a guitar string
The day Queen released Bohemian Rhapsody
Led Zep performing Stairway To Heaven
WooRABtock
2Pacs debut, his hit on society and the release of 'Changes' after his death
REM's Losing my Religion high fame moment.
 
...In Music History? I would have to posit that the Romantic period of music changed the way we view the world today. This was the period that artists stood up to oppressive views of the Aristocratic and Realism. In a sense, they were the rockers of their day. I say that this period changed so many things because it lead to the industrial revolution, emotionally based artwork, and freedom of expression.

Dont get me wrong. I do believe that every time Hendrix or Stevie Ray Vaughn lifted the guitar history was rewritten, but when you're asking about music history you have to be more arabiguous.
 
hmm... I mentioned in the "most influential person EVER in music" thread that on April 9, 1860 a man by the name of Edouard-Leon Scott de Martinville invented a device called the phonautograph and produced the earliest recording ever of a person singing. This would be the most important moment in music production history. For music history in general, I'm gonna have to go with Jackhammers train of thought and say the first person to discover how music could be made with the human body and/or some other device.
