@AntiSocialChannel85 Yes it is. The blacks called it Rhythm & Blues, and Cleveland disc jockey, Alan Freed changed it's name to Rock n' Roll to make the music cross the race barrier of those times.
Look it up.

Rhythm & Blues is not rock and roll

@AntiSocialChannel85 Who didn't even "plaid" electric guitar? If you're talking about in the 1950s, well, you're totally wrong again. The electric guitar is ALL OVER '50s Rock N Roll. And NO, Psychodelic Rock is a music style. Now go do your research before saying anything.

They didn't even plaid electric guitar, Psychedelic rock is just a name they gave because of the 60's and 70's life style, just like grunge is rock.

@AntiSocialChannel85 Sorry, but you are totally wrong. Rock and Roll IS from the 1950s. Jimi Hendrix? Give me a break! That's not Rock and Roll! It's Acid Rock, like all the late 60s crap.

There was no real rock in the 50's it started in the 70's with Hendrix

Fantastic..That man Milborn is swinging!!

Boogie piano goes back to the '10s. The big change during '47-'49 was a fad for songs that had lyrics about rocking and/or rolling _and_ had backbeat through most of the song, e.g. "Rock The Joint" by Jimmy Preston, "Jumpin' At The Jubilee" by Big Joe Turner, and "Boogie At Midnight" by Roy Brown. That was a going fad with artists emulating each other (e.g. "Boogie At Midnight" quotes rocking the joint from the slightly earlier "Rock The Joint") before Alan Freed got interested in it.

My favorite Amos Milburn song! Great video, but it really seems sedate compared to the record. The record sounds like they're blowin' the roof off, and Amos is shouting hard. But this is great being able to actually see him perform the song! Cheers!
I used to go to a RockNroll club in Kingston SurreyUK in 1970s.The guy running the disco used to play Amos Milburn,Joe Turner,Louis Jordan etc on old 78 records...brings back memories of really good times.Great posting.
