Best Answer

No, there were a lot of styles of music in the 1950s, but not rock. The fifties was the birth of Rock 'n Roll; early Elvis, Bill Haley, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Ritchie Valens, Chuck Berry, and Jerry Lee Lewis. There were many others and many other popular genres but Rock music is something else entirely and didn't come along until much later. See the link below for more of the popular music of the 1950s.

When did classic rock start?

A common misconception is that rock started in the late 50s and early 60s with Elvis Prestley and the Beatles. In fact, Rock is an offshoot of Blues and Jazz of the 40s and 50s when singers such as Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, and musicians such as B.B. King emerged. They served to influence early rock legends including Jim Morisson of the Doors, Janis Joplin and her band Big Brother and the Holding Company, as well as Jimi Hendrix.
