Matt =Popular music in the 50s= Music in the 50s went through an __unprecidented__ change. People went from listening to blues, gospel, and classical (or no music at all) to listening to Rock and Roll. (__also__ known as Rock n' Roll)

Even though Rock and Roll was __definitely__ the 800 pound gorilla in the music ring in the 50s, there were still other styles that were going through big changes also.
