About British Rock
The 1960s and 1970s British rock continuum, from the Beatles and Stones inventing the modern guitar group to the Who's mod-rock attack, the Kinks' songwriting, the prog ambition of Pink Floyd and Genesis, and the glam theatre of Bowie and T. Rex. A single conversation that defined what rock could be for the rest of the century.
