when did rock and roll end

when did rock and roll end, and alternative begin? every group i think is rock and roll, others think are alternative rock.

 

hey i get this i think that rockn roll ended when ppl decided that you couldnt have any
7 minute solos i think when we decided that guitarist were great even if they only played to chords per song.

 

Tomorrow.

 

never did end, it lives on

 

My My, Hey Hey, Rock n Roll is here to stay.

 

Rock & Roll died/ended in 1973, that's the year they started playing disco on the radio.

Well, maybe it will end some day, but so far it hasn't.

the day jimi hendrix died. the truest form of rock and roll, the progressiveness died when his brain deceased.

 

rock and roll lives in bands like Jet, The Hives, The Strokes and Oasis

 

i agree

 

Yes, all rock 'n roll dissappeared in that very year because of that.

 

lol

 

i wasnt alive so i cant tell you....... but its all in your head man. it didnt really end..

 

the great bands that made the best music in the world will end but rock n roll will never die, as long as there are fans which there always will be.

 

There are also fans of the Latin language, does that mean it isn't dead?

 

Rock didn't end. Disco did.

 

rock n roll never ended it still lives today

 

As long as it is still spoken today, it isn't dead.

 

Yeah, maybe it's not the perfect example . Well, look at like this quote from wikipedia:

So, when compared with rock 'n roll and there wouldn't be any innovations and it's not being made anymore, just played from cd's and stuff, I consider it dead. But that's not the case at all. So it's not dead.
