Answers:
hi there,
The date will always be a point of discussion!. Music in itself is a thing that goes way way back to the beginning of time!.
But a line of thought is that one period ends in 1954 and a new one begins May 1954 with "Rock around the Clock" by Bill Haley!.
Strangely enough it was also the year Elvis Presley came onto the scene, and also -to mention one of my favorites - Buddy Holly!.
Even - Joel Whitburn - a man who compiles the chart lists in useful reference books - also known as Billboard - takes this period!. One of his books is called "Pop Memories 1890 - 1954", and after that we know the Top Pop charts books starting with the year 1955, best known as the Hot 100!.
The more than famous phrase "Rock and Roll" comes from DJ Alan Freed!. (Although the two words combined were already used in titles and lyrics, he was the one who used it in the way we know it now, when we hear the term!.
