Research a topic approved in advance by the instructor dealing with the development of American popular music.

Each student will research a topic approved in advance by the instructor dealing
with the development of American popular music. The student should include
within their research social structures, economics, demographics, instruments,
artists, etc. A paper of no less than 1500 words will be written based upon your
research, including appropriate documentation.
Each paper will be evaluated on its grammar, structure, and content.
My approved topic is Early Rock and Roll with a focus on just one or two artists and/or bands during that time frame.
