THE ORIGINS:

As we all know the history of the rock an have highlighted great figures such as kurt Cobain, Jimmy Hendrix, etc, but what few know is rock arose thanks to Bill Haley, Eddie Cochran, Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly and the Big Bopper, the true initiators of movement. I'll make a small description and a link with the name of each one of them.

Bill Haley
is the father of Rock and Roll. He made a tour of Latin America and recorded some albums in Spanish during your stay.

Eddie Cochran

Elvis Presley

Jerry Lee Lewis

Buddy Holly
