Classic Rock Fan Community: Led Zep, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Doors & More
Why did England dominate 60's and 70's rock (Classic Rock)
I respect the opinions I see on this site, and I love that they can vary so much from person to person. So, with that being said, why, oh why, did England dominate what we call classic rock?
The USA had a huge population advantage, and yet, we saw England churn out incredible acts like The Stones, The Beatles, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, etc...etc... So why fellow rockers did that island kick our asses so much? I really want to know, and I really look forward to seeing all of your opinions and theories.

This is a strange one. and a good one. because that whole flood of British bands in the 60s an 70s had all been influenced by (mainly) black American blues artists. They all started out doing their various versions of great stuff they had heard and moved it on. This is not to say it was just the Brits. The same thing was happening in the USA.
