No one really "founded" rock and roll. Although difficult to nail down to an exact year, it is safe to say that rock and roll began in the early fifties and was a mixture of black and white musical traditions. What began in the early fifties was an aggressive, sexual noise that arose from the beat of the music. The beat was bigger and louder than any beat before it and the reason was simple--electric Guitars. If one was to try to nail down a year and an artist, it would undoubtably be Ike Turner's 1951 recording of Rocket 88. Ike Turner's song was the second biggest hit single in 1951. It was a mixture of jump blues, swing combo music and a back beat. Shortly thereafter, in early 1954, master 'Shout Blues' artist Big Joe Turner recorded the prototypical twelve bar blues-form rock and roll song "Shake, Rattle and Roll." This song was a high point for Big Joe Turner's career. It was also the formal introducation of 'Rock and Roll.' Ike Turner and Big Joe Turner are credited by scholars with the inception and pioneering of Rock and Roll recordings with these two timeless hits. Bill Haley re-recorded the song "Shake, Rattle and Roll," further popularizing it in American mainstream, but this original is preferred by rock and roll purists.

The rise of jazz and rockabilly music led to the interest of the public, especially teens, in the developing genre called rock and roll. The most visible performer of the music was Elvis Presley (1935-1977) also known as The King.

Are fossils rock or bone?

I can say that fossils are bone


What can form fossils?

Many fossils form because an animal dies and its body sinks to the ocean floor where it is buried in sediment. The bone sinks in the sediment and more is added on top. As the pressure increases the sediment turns into rock. The bone then dissolves from water and leaves a hole in its place. This natural mold is filled with minerals from the water. The area surrounding the fossil is then brought back to the surface after millions of years of erosion.


Why are dinosaur bones rare?

Dinosaur bones are rare because the outside of the bone is actually dissolved so when the bone was still there, the pores let in sedimentary rock which hardened and the bone dissolved.
