The British Blues-boom

While the Mersey Beat was shaped by the Beatles and other bands in Liverpool, rhythm and blues bands that had grown from a traditional jazz lineage and the skiffle movement were increasingly emerging in Soho, London, and Richmond, and the metropolitan conurbation. Alexis Korner and Cyril Davies, Blues Incorporated and the Marquee Club, John Mayall and Graham Bond, The Yardbirds and The Animals.

Save to calendar:

Rock and roll is, somewhat simplistically, the result of a particular cultural-historical fusion: that of when the musical traditions of Black slaves brought over from Africa met those of white settlers who had emigrated from Europe to the new world, the Americas. Moreover, all this took place in a radically transforming society, following technological progress and its associated industrialisation and urbanisation. In the second season of this series, we look at the social, cultural and musical events of the period from Elvis to the twilight of the rock and roll era in the Fifties.
