When did hard rock begin?

You could argue that Cream, Jimi Hendrix, Blue Cheer, or even the Beatles' "Helter Skelter" helped usher in the age of hard rock, but I would go out on a limb and state that Led Zeppelin's 1968 eponymous debut is the hard rock version of the book of Genesis. Their debut album blueprinted the DNA for all future hard rock bands. The frenetic soloing and primo riffage of "Good Times, Bad Times", the proto-punk velocity of "Communication Breakdown", the ominous and sludgy-dark ponderings of the very long "Dazed and confused", and even "Babe, I'm gonna Leave You" 's folky whisper-to-a-scream dynamics, foreshadowed everybody from Van Halen to Nirvana.


Who listened to The Beatles music?

The Beatles were first to do a lot of things. People were attracted to them partly because they were English and different from American bands. Not to mention they had been together for years and they had a tight sound and when they covered some of the American music, everyone got a new look at the pop culture. They started writing their own music and through their originality a new sound happened. They were so sucessful, that in order to get noticed, other bands felt that they needed to fashion their music after to the sound of the Beatles. The clothes they wore influenced everybody. Bell bottoms were in, and people started cutting their hair in the same style. It was fashionable to take after the Beatles. the effect of the beatles is everlasting on Music. Their sound was original and their look was different, this led to the outbreak of freedom during the sixties. Without the beatles there wouldn't be metal, The Song "Helter Skelter" marked the beginning of Metal which would become more popular in the eighties. It was one of the first rays of sunshine after Kennedy died and it was a needed distraction for the cold war, and considering they had 27 #1 hits that had to have inspired some later bands, it could be anyone because they were not known for their huge guitar and drum solos, if you want to be like The Beatles you need solid songwriting, descent I'm putting emphasis on descent they don't have to be perfect, you need long hair, have your guitars up to your chest, and the drummer needs blisters on his fingers

Is helter skelter and Charles Manson the same person?

No. Charles Manson is a person. Helter skelter came from the mind of Manson, a race war that would eventually make Mason 'king of the world'. He really thought by killing a few influencial white people he could jump start this war.

Can there be Poptropica The Beatles?

There could be but most likely not. The Poptropica owners would have to get a copyright contract from The Beatles manager. That's a LOT of hassle.
