Music and youth culture T1

Subculture definition: a cultural group within a larger culture, often having beliefs or interests at variance with those of the larger culture. 

The Teddy boys are often associated with rock and roll music and where classic Edwardian suits and shiny satin shirts rock and roll allowed artists to speak on political issues and influence government. And it is credited with integrating the teens of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s and helping black artists get played on the very white radio. Rock 'n' roll has even influenced cultures in different parts of the world, especially Europe.
