课程概述

This course, part 1 of a 2-course sequence, examines the history of rock, primarily as it unfolded in the United States, from the days before rock (pre-1955) to the end of the 1960s. This course covers the music of Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Phil Spector, Bob Dylan, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Cream, and many more artists, with an emphasis both on cultural context and on the music itself. We will also explore how developments in the music business and in technology helped shape the ways in which styles developed. Rock emerged in the mid 1950s as a blending of mainstream pop, rhythm and blues, and country and western--styles that previously had remained relatively separate. This new style became the music of the emerging youth culture and was often associated with teen rebellion. We will follow the story of how this rowdy first wave of rock and roll (1955-59) was tamed in the early 60s but came roaring back with the Beatles and the Rolling Stones and then went psychedelic by the end of the decade....

Provided insight into what I was listening to as a pre-teen. I didn't have the exposure to some of the older roots or the an understanding of the business forces that shaped the music I had access to.

De todo el curso, resalta la vocación del profesor por educar, expone datos interesantes y brinda recomendaciones para que el alumno busque por su propia cuenta. Se recomienda llevar el cursos y escuchar las canciones explicadas a la par.

Very interesting topics and very good teacher, nice to listen to and passionate of the topic.

I'd only suggest to include some music samples as the lessons unfold, to easier get the taste of what is being explained.

While I enjoyed the course it does appear a bit dated in its delivery .Links to interviews' and performances would be easy to do and would enhance the experience for the learner.

Great approach and didactics, good organization (and satisfactory standardization) of visual resources. The discussion topics brought up by the professor were quite interesting!

Good course, but I was disappointed that clips of some of the music weren't played.

Demasiada información y los tests son demasiado específicos en canciones, años.... por otro lado, en las evaluaciones están traduciendo los nombres de las bandas y/o sellos discográficos lo cual confunde.

"History of rock" with no mention of Sister Rosetta Tharpe.? Not very well researched.
