In this series of books, based on the hit podcast A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs, Andrew Hickey analyses the history of rock and roll music, from its origins in swing, Western swing, boogie woogie, and gospel, through to the 1990s, grunge, and Britpop. Looking at five hundred representative songs, he tells the story of the musicians who made those records, the society that produced them, and the music they were making. Volume two looks at fifty songs from the origins of rock and roll, starting in 1956 with the Million Dollar Quartet session at Sun Studios, and ending in 1962 with "Love Me Do" by the Beatles. Along the way, it looks at Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Wanda Jackson, the Chantels, Little Richard, and many more of the progenitors of rock and roll.
