Rhythm & Blues
has become one of the most identifiable art-forms of the 20th Century,
with an
enormous influence on the development of both the sound and attitude of
modern music. But it
wasn't always that way. "The History of Rhythm and Blues"
investigates. The accidental synthesis
of jazz, gospel, blues, ragtime, country and pop into a definable form
of black music, which in turn
would influence pretty well all popular music from the 1950s to the
present. |
