accepted by mainstream america
I was surprised to learn that rock was not initially accepted by mainstream America - that it was considered "lowbrow".
fan from howlin wolf
This is one of the few courses I have taken that I was sorry to see end.I have been a long time blues fan from Howlin Wolf to the current blue great such as the Allman brothers, Blues Brothers, Kenny Wayne Shepard and so on.

The coverage of the early blues and its migration north is well done and now have an understanding of how the blues evolved and hoe this lead to Rock and Roll.i am going to try and find the additional R'n'R courses mention in the last video.I would highly recommend this course even if just for self interest.

prof. david carlson
Thanks to Prof. David Carlson for sharing his knowledge with us.
unlike similar online
Unlike similar online music history classes, he played snippets of the songs as he discussed them, which really made the difference.
crossed race lines
Overall, I was impressed how music crossed race lines in a country that was/is extremely segregated.
fair usage clips
Good use of fair usage clips of songs to deal with copyright restrictions (which ruined another course I took).
