Rock and Roll Revival was a back-to-basics musical trend of the late 1960s and early 1970s, in a sort-of backlash against the heavier and psychedelic rock sounds then in vogue. As the Sixties ended, several early rock and rollers like Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Bill Haley & His Comets and Bo Diddley, who had been out of fashion since the British Invasion, experienced a resurgence in popularity, performing their old hits to a mix of old and new fans. Rock and roll revival festivals became popular, and anticipated the "oldies show" package tours of later years. Bo Diddley announced "I'm back and I'm feelin' fine" in his comeback single titled ''Bo Diddley 1969'', released by Chess Records. Sha Na Na performed "At the Hop" at the Woodstock Festival in 1969, in the revival spirit. John Lennon and Yoko Ono had a surprise hit album in 1970 with ''Live Peace in Toronto 1969'', recorded at the Toronto Rock and Roll Revival in September 1969. Appearing on the spur of the moment, with a hastily assembed band (composed of Lennon, Ono, Eric Clapton, Klaus Voormann and Alan White), Lennon led off their set with familiar songs (like "Blue Suede Shoes" and "Money (That's What I Want)") that suited the mood of the program. ==Notable bands== *Sha Na Na *Showaddywaddy *Rocky Sharpe & The Replays *Mud (band) *Wizzard *Creedence *Status Quo *Bay City Rollers *The Rubettes *Big Daddy 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「rock and roll revival」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
