The UK invented Rock with The WHO
Prove me wrong?
Who was the first rock band if it wasn't The Who. I claim the first real rock band for the UK. Discuss all you envious Americans who have never bettered them. We also invented Progressive Rock with pink floyd. We also invented Heavy Metal with Black Sabbath. The Americans invented hairspray rock! Discuss with facts. |

What about all the american garage rock bands?
For example The Sonics formed in 1960 and were just as raw & abrasive as The Who , if not more so.

You what sonny Jim? YOU WHAT??? What stadiums have they filled out and what great songs did they make? The Who are in the hall of fame as the first rock band. I'm talking about hard rock. Stadium rock. Bowie and bolan were glam not hairspray rock. I knock the US as they always take our lea and then come in late and copy our styles before big US record companies mass produce their versions of our movements. Plus I like a good debate rather then simply agreeing. Floyd were the first prog band. (I say weakly) The WHO WERE the first Hard Rock band who inspired Zeppelin and gave them their name. |
