The music history of the United States includes many styles of music that have evolved Through the Centuries. It is difficult to classify each different style because there are so many genres, subgenres and ways of categorizing music. So many cultures, so many time periods make that task virtually impossible. At some point in time, we have probably found ourselves Stuck in the 70s, reliving the Spirit of the 60s, and enjoying Contemporary and Classical, just to name a few. Some of the best-known genres of American music stem from Wine, Whiskey and Women, Rockin' 'n' Rollin', and Generations of Country.
Today's spotlight focuses on different genres released on May 3rd spanning six decades. Enjoy the memories...
