Hail, hail rock'n'roll When did rock'n'roll begin? Did it start with Elvis Presley? Or maybe Bill Haley's 'Rock Around the Clock'? When the electric guitar was invented in the 1950s, rock music took off. By the early sixties, the Beatles and the Rolling Stones had arrived. And the world was almost ready for Jimi Hendrix. Rock music is guitars, drums and in-your-face vocals - played loud and live. Take a tour behind the scenes to see what makes it happen. Listen in to what roadies say about life on the road. Find out what it takes to be a star, or how to get your band up and running. Rock Raps takes you from the raw beginnings, through pop, punk, heavy metal and disco fever - right up to rock and rap in the nineties.
