Did you know that in the early days of music, the bass was an instrument that stood up? That part of rock and roll evolved, as did most of the other instruments of our day. Les Paul changed the music scene with his electric guitar, Buddy broke all the rules in the recording studio, and who could forget the moment Bob Dylan went electric?
