Its BS...

The Stones were more dirty.....bad boys....not poppy like the Liverpool lads

That they did some Delta blues and whites feared that is such crap...new media template

Hell....Chuck and Little Richard had already paved that road and had been very popular

Whites thought James Brown very odd but interesting

wilson...Percy....Otis...etc were beloved

Whites feared very white and openly racist Jerry Lee more than any black performer

Parents hated the sexual culture of rock and roll period

Some groups like doo wop and Beach Boys got a pass

The psychedelic rock arrived and parents gave up....

In retrospect those long dead parents were more right than wrong

Ignore anything rolling stone says....chickenhawk Wenner is a nut

Chet Flippo was ok....

Look up parlor guitar...that will explain slide guitar..little dainty white women were slide players back in the 1800’s...Chuck Berry copied Bob Wills (Texas Playboys) style of playing almost note for note..with a little bluesier sound and rhythm...music has been added to and subtracted forever..no one has a patent on it....just thought i’d drop you a line.
