Note: Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Madonna, and their long line of "MTV clones"
are basically "singers, dancers, and actors". This site is dedicated to the
pioneers, the musicians, the songwriters of the raw power and emotion that is Rock & Roll.
We also owe a great debt to the bluesmen who opened the doors to this music,
specifically Robert Johnson, Willie Dixon, Muddy Waters, BB King, and Buddy Guy, just
to name a few.
