I'm reading a book called This is Your Brain on Music by Daniel Levitin, a neuropsychologist who has also been a rock musician, record producer and more. At one point he is asked by a mentor at Stanford to choose six songs that would "capture all of rack and roll."
Here are the songs he chose:
1) "Long Talll Sally," Little Richard
2) "Roll Over Beethoven," The Beatles
3) "All Along the Watchtower," Jimi Hendrix
4} "Wonderful Tonight," Eric Clapton
5) "Little Red Corvette," Prince
6) "Anarchy in the U-K," the Sex Pistols
What six songs would you choose to define bluegrass for a person who doesn't know the music, but who is interested? - Ted
