How The Beatles Destroyed Rock n' Roll

Elijah Wald has written a book about "how the beatles destroyed rock n' roll".
He states that rock and roll before the beatles were all about:

• dancing
• doing live shows
• women going to shows
• and considered a "black" genre of music

after the boys from liverpool, rock n' roll became:

• mostly for record listning
• just listling
• mostly men going to the shows
• and considered a white genre music.

I think that it is a very interesting approach to thinking about the beatles history. Everyone always says how they revolutionized music and make everything beautiful, but that's only like that because it is told by fans not by the real information.
I have no option but to agree because they are vivid facts about the beatles music and it is very interesting to look at history like that.
Most people would have never thought about this fact, just like caroline kurzweil. I told her about this and she scold at me saying I was wrong and that it was impossible that the beatles destroyed rock. Mathias Brotero disagreed with the facts but after we explained the facts clearly he understood and "accepted" the facts.
