Since the 1950's the blues had been a mix of R&B and soul music (for those who understood the blues). What once was the blues, and then turned into more of a drum beat, heavy guitars, which gave the blues a heavy new sound.
Was the world ready for the blues? As we like to call it, Rock N' Roll. The blues was also a mix of tempo and great voice. The lyrics were sexual, emotional, and even full of heart ache. On the other hand, the blues could make any one laugh or cry, because we’ve all be in the blues at least once.

Ray Charles was one of the greats of the blues. He could sing, and wrote his own lyrics. Like most singers that sang the blues, he had every reason to, he was blind, and everyone said he had no hope. Charles found his way made it threw drugs and unhappiness to a place called Rock N' Roll.

As the blues began to move into the 60's, it changed. The Righteous Brothers not only sang the blues to the highest of notes, but the duo showed the world that the blues wasn't only for colored people anymore. The Righteous Brothers were white men that sang Rock Music and very soulful music at that. All of their songs are touching in some ways. I think thanks to bands like the Righteous Brothers, in the 60's white people could sing the blues, and were welcomed to it.

When James Brown came into the picture, he took the blue to a whole new level. No more would the blues just be depressing music, for heart felt people. Brown wanted a groove to dance too. He made sex seem like the best thing on earth. He was famous for his very sexual dancing, while singing, and his very sexual lyrics. He started as a blues singer, and ran into R&B right around the corner was Rock N' Roll. Like Marvin ***e, Brown gave R&B a sexual side, something to make you want to listen to, not only to the instruments but the lyrics too.

While bands were still in between blues and R&B, came out the one of the most liked music's in the world, Rock N' Roll. Rock was amazing to us all. Weather we listened to it or not. No one could help but listen to the music that those from the past helped create. So sexual and exciting and unimaginable to anyone who grew up listening to the music in the 40's and 50’s?

Rock N' Roll was about to make a hit and run in the music industry. Elvis came and knocked all the young ladies on there knees. No one seen Elvis coming, his music would change the music industry in everyway imaginable. Elvis not only sang the blues, he sang country music. Elvis was not only white, but sang the lyrics of what some would say only a sexed crazed man would sing. When Elvis was on TV, the cameras were only aloud to shoot Elvis from the waist up, because of his wild dance moves. Elvis may have been the king of Rock N' Roll, but he sang lots of country, so in my eyes he was never the king.

The Mamas and The Papas were another great band from the 60's, they were Rock N' Roll at its hippest, they were all the rage for the hippies of there time. Mamas and the Papas weren't hard core Rock N' Roll they were soft rock, but were in fact rock of there time.

The Beatles then came out of England and gave America a try, little did they know, they would become the first world wide Rock N' Roll band in the world. Four young men in the band, and they all played instruments, and played Rock N' Roll. The Beatles never really wrote sexual lyrics, but were considered to be sexual icons. They were the biggest Rock N' Roll band in the world, and gave other rockers from other parts of the world a chance in the music industry.

The Rolling Stones they were sexual, soft, and amazing. The Stones had women going crazy everywhere, because of there sexual lyrics, to there very sexual lead singer, Mick Jagger. From James Brown to Elvis, you can see just how much influence those rockers had on what were future rock bands. The Beatles and the Rolling Stones being two of the worlds biggest, they followed the rockers and the blues singers before them. While doing so they created what we all know now as Rock N' Roll music.

When it came to sexuality in rock music, The Doors had it all; Jim Morrison (lead singer of the Doors) had women screaming his name around every corner. He had a voice of a dream, and bedroom eyes. The Doors wrote music that was depressing, yet truthful to prying yes. Even if the Doors weren't the type of healthy music, teenagers and hippies understood it, because in the 60's Rock N' Roll was all about sex drugs and Rock N' Roll. The Doors were all about all of those things, which not only made them one of the greatest bands in rock history, but had one of the biggest sexual icons for there time.

Rock N' Roll would never be the same. Rock N' Roll was now getting new names, hard rock, heavy rock, soft rock. In the 1970's a whole new rock era would emerge, with heavy rock bands such as Alice Cooper, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd. Led Zeppelin had only one number one hit record, but every song they played would be amazing to all who liked to rock. Led Zeppelin plus other great rock bands were also famous for there groupies (Band-Aids). All they did was tour around the world, and play there music, and young girls from everywhere would follow there rockers for sex, money, drugs, and just for the love of music.

In the late 60’s Pink Floyd broke out, and out came a whole new meaning in rock music, this band managed to make rock music so different, and almost understandable to depressing and insane (jk) like people, no matter how different Pink Floyd were this band still was at number one (at least once "dark side of the moon came out"), and number one to everyone who dared to take a closer step into the musicale and imaginative minds of the genies like people of Pink Floyd. Pink Floyd went on to rock there genies minds into the 80’s and on into the 90’s, some say Pink Floyd were just as meaningful in the 90’s and others say that there music never changed but the band almost needed to created some kind of changed in the ways of there writing, There true fans loved Pink Floyd with difference or no difference.
