Rock and Roll Rebellion

Abstract

Rock and Roll has always been not your parents’ music. Bill Haley and His Comets achieved notoriety when their songs were included on the soundtrack to Blackboard Jungle, a film about rebellious high school students. Blackboard Jungle was one of the first waves of anti-social teenager movies like Rebel Without a Cause and The Young Ones, which showed the reality of social change that had taken place after the Second World War.
