Blues evolved into jazz.
The appearance of British rock groups in America changed our culture massively. The original Beatles invasion opened the floodgates, and provided a boost for other cultural exports such as films, art and television. British Invasion acts influenced fashion, haircuts and other manners of culture in the 1960s. It became known as the "counter-culture" because the groups gave the young "rebels" of the '60s something to relate to and thus influenced what defined a "cultural rebel." The success of British acts time lead American garage rock bands to change their sound and style to match. The most famous example of this was the Monkees; an American made carbon-copy of the Beatles that were formed simply to capitalize off the British Invasion craze. The latter part of the original invasion saw more blues-charged groups like the Rolling Stones coming over the Atlantic. These British blues groups were influenced by the black blues singers of the '40s and '50s such as Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, and B.B. King. The British artists covered the black artists this time out of respect, not simply to try to capitalize on the black artists success like the "vanilla" American cover artists of the '50s. This respectful covering of the original blues hits ended up paying off for the original blues artists when fans of groups such as the Rolling Stones tracked their influences back to the black blues artists. Soon American blues shows were filling up with white teens looking for the roots of their favorite British bands. I wrote this for my Rock History class for a short essay answer on a test. ! ---------------- The likes of The Beatles, Herman's Hermits, Gerry and the Pacemakers and The Rolling Stones certainly influenced American youth culture during the 1960's. The new sound from across the Atlantic had a big influence on teenagers during that time.
