As I said last episode, a lot of the energy of rock n roll came from youthful rebellion against the culture, values, and politics of the older generation. This was a big deal in the 1950’s, with Elvis and his dancing, and suggestive songs and bands, but the youthful rebellion thing went to a whole other level in the 1960’s.
While pop rockers like the Beatles created sort of sappy love songs, there were also a bunch of rock n roll musicians whose music was a more direct and critical rejection of old people culture.
