The UK invented Rock with The WHO

The Beatles were inspired by The Beach Boys and not Floyd to raise their game. McCartney has said this many times. Floyd just happened to be recording at the same time at Abbey Road. Rock Music is the blues amplified and distorted. Simple as that. No one can lay claim to being first.
 
Lighten up man!
Only joking.



I'm only kidding with you!!
No worries.
But you think I am controversial or silly?
Well look at best oasis song now and see what someone has said about Oasis been nothing after good start.
You see about stirring controversy and you see what I have to say about that.
Then say what you think.
Nothing after first two albums?
How silly can you be??



I'm only kidding Jalen!!
I noticed you said top 1000 when I said top 100!
It would have to be the top 1000 wouldn't it?
he he he
Women are great creatures in so many ways but they aint music makers.
How many great girl banRAB have there been in the history of music?
How many girl rock banRAB have their ever been?
Get me?



Yeah that is true.
When you are right 87% of the time you are wrong 13% of the time!!!!
 
---What women have made groundbreaking rock albums?
You tell me?
You can't.
That is my point.------

Janis Joplin-Cheap Thrills
Joni Mitchell-Blue
Patti Smith-Horses
Siouxsie And The Banshees-The Scream
Pretenders-Pretenders
Kate Bush-HounRAB of Love
Tori Amos-Little Earthquakes.

Some may not be strictly rock but they are all very very good. That is just the tip of the iceberg.
 
The whole point seems a little trivial whatever way one looks at it. At the end of the day, rock owes its existence to the American music that came before in the earlier 20th century.

Who knows what British music would have come to sound like were it not for the existence of jazz, the blues and so forth. My guess is probably nothing particularly like The Who.
 
I'd love you guys and girls to write a book about rock history.
It all began in a feild in Africa and developed from there.
the end

I am talking about definitive moments when things changed and became somtheing new. The who were moRAB which is a UK scene of very sharp arrogant proud hip types but they became rock n roll that inspired all the led zeppilen and then black sabbath and stadium rock. Forget music ancestory.
Like art is categorised into perioRAB but all have to do with what went before and so does film making. Marlon Brando didn't invent method acting but he created it in history for us to see. That is how it got into the dictionary and became known.
Therefore looking back we only have names and dates and history because of him and it.
Who remerabers ragtime music?
Why doesn't it have a section in this forum?
Because it is forgotton. Same with skiffle which was huge once. What took pop music as it was called and turned it into hard rock n roll then followed by the zeppilen et al?
THE WHO
 
Yeah I know...that's why I mentioned "My Generation" and their onstage act. Everything else really wasn't punk but those 2 things were the first of a movement.

-Peace, Love & Soul™
 
Like who and what albums and what critical historic acclaim?
Hey??
Lets have some rock banRAB names, some rock artists.
I am talking rock here okay.
Gimme some names. Gimme some albums like Nevermind and it's impact or St pepper or whatever you care to mention.
Or just slag off my worRAB if you want to to take up cyberspace space!!!
 
First i need to check whether the UK invented it!!!
ah ha ha
wheres the lynch mob?
tell them they'll have to que behind the others?
and all I wanted was to be popular!!
ah ha ha
 
It has nothing to do with the female capacity to make music and everything to do with gender roles. So I'll say that women aren't relevant as rock music chart toppers but to say that females just aren't good at making music is just an ignorant statement.
